Keep Shoprocket, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Shoprocket you would be making checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $290 a year.
What you could make
- Digital downloads, inventory and templates: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you.
- It plugs into other products, Stripe, PayPal and PayU among them, and has an API.
What this rests on. Shoprocket’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.

Worth knowing
