When building an online store on Shopify, it can be challenging to know which Shopify plan is the best choice for you.

With a range of Shopify pricing plans available to choose from, and many different businesses utilising the platform, it caters to all kinds of websites and stores.

So, no matter your business – whether it’s selling clothes on a simple online store or a range of services to be hired – you can choose the right Shopify pricing plan for you.

Still not sure which Shopify plan is right for your business, though? You’re in luck as the experts at Paramount Digital are here to help you decide.

Which plan is best for your Shopify store?

Deciding which Shopify plan is best for your business depends on where your business currently is. If you are just starting out, are a one-person team or prioritise sales made through social media platforms or in person, then the Shopify Basic plan would most likely work best for you.

For businesses that have started to grow, have a couple of staff members and need 5 staff accounts, then the Shopify plan is the one to go for.

Businesses that have high sales volume and greater needs would benefit from the Shopify Advanced plan. This plan allows businesses to add up to 15 staff accounts, and create custom reports and has a more enhanced support feature to ensure your business is getting the support it needs at all hours of the day.

The Advanced plan also has a greater checkout functionality as well as offering the ability to add additional markets for a monthly fee if your business is ready to expand further.

The top price plan, Shopify Plus, is for businesses that are already reaching global sales. This plan provides a more in-depth look into the analytics behind the business, including over 200 inventory locations, and a fully customisable checkout experience with 40x capacity.
