Which one is for you

Pick BigCommerce if

  • Fits if you want discount types and shipping rules built in rather than added as apps
  • Works for selling on Amazon, eBay and Walmart from one catalog

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if your sales are growing, as passing $30K a year moves you up to Growth at $79 a month
  • Pricey if you want abandoned-cart emails, customer groups or stored cards, which start on Growth at $79 a month
  • Watch out: paying through a provider outside BigCommerce's list adds 2% a sale on Core and 1% on Growth
  • Watch out: Scale covers $33,333 of sales a month and charges 0.9% on anything above it
  • Skip it if you want a free plan, as there's only a 15-day trial

Pick Spryker if

  • Fits if you are a large business with developers and a multi-brand or marketplace plan
  • Works for B2B sellers that want a headless setup

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you are a small shop, since it is built for enterprise projects
  • Not for you if you want to see a price, as the page is password-protected
  • Skip it if you have no developers, as it needs development work
  • Watch out: no free plan or self-service trial is listed

How we grade them

Value for money
CCore is $29 a month on yearly billing ($39 monthly), the category's middle, and there's no extra fee when buyers pay through BigCommerce's listed partners. Use another provider and it's 2% a sale. Core only covers $30K of sales a year, mind.
CNo prices are published and the pricing page is password-protected, so there is nothing to set against the category's $20 to $89.
Free plan and trial
CNo free plan, but a 15-day trial with no card needed. That's long enough to set a store up and see if it suits you before paying anything.
FNo free plan and no self-service trial on the pages read.
Features
BIt covers the whole job: one-page checkout, 70+ discount options built in, real-time carrier quotes, stock across 4 locations on Core, and marketplace, ad feed and POS links. Customer groups and abandoned-cart emails wait for Growth, but nothing core is missing.
CB2B and B2C commerce, marketplaces, order management and inventory. It covers a lot, but the listing shows it needs development work.
Ease of use
B4.5 from 639 App Store ratings for its phone app. Discounts, shipping rules and stock are built in, so the basics don't need extra apps.
DNo store rating on record. It is an enterprise project that needs developers, not a quick start.
Platforms and integrations
BWeb, iPhone and Android, with Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Square, Clover, Stripe, PayPal and Klarna, plus an API. There's no desktop app, so not an A.
CWeb platform with a public API and no integrations listed.

Worth knowing

BigCommerce

  • Each plan caps sales over the past twelve months (gross order value minus 10%); passing $30K on Core or $100K on Growth moves the store up a plan.
  • Orders paid through providers outside BigCommerce's embedded list carry a fee of 2% on Core, 1% on Growth and 0.6% on Scale.
  • Scale covers $33,333 of sales a month and charges 0.9% on sales above that.
  • Customer groups, abandoned-cart emails and stored cards need Growth or higher, and product filtering needs Scale.

Spryker

  • No prices are published; the pricing page is password-protected and buying starts with a demo request.
  • It is built for enterprise projects and needs development work, not a quick start for a small shop.
  • No free plan or self-service trial is listed on the pages we read.

More comparisons

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
