'Free' tends to mean something specific in this space, free to sign up, not free to actually run a store. Worth checking the fine print before assuming you've found a no-cost option.
Where Hidden Costs Usually Hide
Transaction fees on top of payment processor fees, paid add-ons for basic features like custom domains, and free tiers that cap orders or product counts until you upgrade.
What 'Flat 5%' Actually Means On Payge
No monthly plan, no hidden add-on fees, no order cap forcing an upgrade. The 5% per order is the cost in full. If you don't sell, the cost is zero.
Reading Any Pricing Page Critically
Whatever platform you compare against, ask one question: what's the total cost on a single ₹500 sale, including every fee layered on top? That number, not the headline word 'free,' tells you what you're actually signing up for.
