The short version

  • Only Artifact has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Artifact wound down in early April 2024. Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger closed it, saying the market opportunity was not large enough to keep investing; Bluepark central plan at £14.99 + VAT per month excludes ecommerce features entirely; full store functionality starts at £29.99 + VAT per month on the Retail tier, and all published prices exclude VAT (bluepark.co.uk/pricing.html, fetched 19 Aug 2026).
