REVIEW BEFORE PURCHASE
Limitations and buyer requirements
- Shopify Payments is not available in Oman or Saudi Arabia: merchants using external gateways pay an additional 2% third-party transaction fee on the Basic plan plus gateway processing fees.
- Recurring monthly subscription ($29/mo annual or $39/mo monthly) plus paid app add-ons can compound overhead compared to owning self-hosted source code.
- Affiliate status is APPLICATION_PENDING: this is a clean non-affiliate link to Shopify's official pricing page.
