The short version

  • Only Wix eCommerce has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Sellfy every plan caps annual sales volume: $10k on Starter, $50k on Business and $200k on Premium; Wix eCommerce a template cannot be changed once the site is built, because the layout is the site rather than a skin over content, so a redesign later means rebuilding every page instead of switching theme.
  • They diverge on capability: Sellfy covers Physical & digital products, Wix eCommerce covers Drag-and-drop editor.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 30 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Sellfy

  • Every plan caps annual sales volume: $10k on Starter, $50k on Business and $200k on Premium
  • Exceeding the cap forces a plan upgrade rather than an overage charge, so growth is a step change in cost
  • Maximum file size per digital product is tied to the plan, at 10 GB, 15 GB and 20 GB
  • Email marketing credits are metered per plan, from 2,000 to 50,000
  • Cart abandonment, upselling and the affiliate programme all require the Business plan
  • Payment processing fees from PayPal or Stripe are charged on top of the subscription

Wix eCommerce

  • A template cannot be changed once the site is built, because the layout is the site rather than a skin over content, so a redesign later means rebuilding every page instead of switching theme.
  • There is no site export, so leaving Wix means recreating pages, layout and navigation on the new platform and building the URL redirect map by hand, and merchants who discover this after cutover lose their search traffic while they work it out.
  • Velo code and installed apps only run inside Wix, so every hour of custom work and every app configuration is written off entirely if you migrate, which grows the switching cost the longer the site succeeds.
  • App Market add-ons carry their own monthly subscriptions, and a store running several of them for reviews, subscriptions, shipping rules and marketing can spend more each month on apps than on the Wix plan itself, which is a normal configuration rather than an unusual one.
  • Multi-currency, multi-region and tax handling are thinner than on platforms built for cross-border selling, so a merchant who starts selling into new territories tends to hit that ceiling before any other, and the fix is a replatform rather than a setting.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Sellfy: How much does Sellfy cost?

Sellfy starts at $22/month for the Starter plan with annual billing ($39/month with monthly billing). Higher tiers (Business and Premium) are available but specific pricing requires contacting sales or visiting the pricing page.

Source
Wix eCommerce: Does Wix take a cut of my sales?

Not on paid Business plans. You still pay card processing fees to Wix Payments or to whichever supported gateway you use, so compare the processing rate rather than assuming zero cost.

Sellfy: Does Sellfy charge transaction fees?

No, Sellfy charges zero transaction fees on sales, unlike competitors such as Gumroad which charges 10%. If revenue exceeds a plan limit, a 2% fee may apply unless you upgrade to a higher tier.

Source
Wix eCommerce: Can I change my template later?

No. The layout is the site rather than a swappable theme, so redesigning means rebuilding the pages. Treat the initial design decision as long-lived.

Sellfy: Does Sellfy offer a free trial?

Yes, new users can access a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. During the trial you can customize store design and add product types, but upgrading to a paid plan is required to start selling.

Source
Wix eCommerce: Is Wix bad for SEO?

That criticism is largely out of date. Pages are server rendered and the SEO controls are adequate. The real search risk is migration, since there is no export and the redirect map has to be built manually.

Wix eCommerce: Can I export my site if I outgrow it?

Products and orders export as CSV. The site itself does not. Budget a full rebuild plus a redirect map if you move.

Wix eCommerce: Where do most merchants hit the ceiling?

Multi-currency and multi-region selling, and catalogue complexity. Both are thinner here than on platforms designed for cross-border trade.
