Everything you need, already working

Hosting, security, connecting a domain you own, and your marketplace listing — handled. Nothing to install, nothing to maintain.

Three ShopStable storefronts fanned side by side: a bakery, a bike workshop, and a plant studio, each in its own palette

A real website of your own

Three businesses, three sites that look nothing alike — all built here. Yours runs on your own domain.

What the marketplace does for you

Every plan puts your business in the ShopStable marketplace — the local directory customers search when they need what you sell. Listing is free, and the customers you meet there are yours.

  • Customers search, and find you

    People search by what they need and where they are. Your services, products, hours, and location show up — no ad budget, no pay-to-rank.

  • Quote requests land in your inbox

    A customer asks, and the request arrives in your CRM with their details — flat-rate to unlock, never an auction, never sold to four of your competitors at once.

  • The customer stays yours

    Their contact details, your conversation, and the order history live in your dashboard. Leave one day and you take them with you.

  • It feeds your own website

    Marketplace shoppers land on your listing; upgrade and that same catalog runs your own site too, at a lower transaction fee than the marketplace.

  • A lead costs the same $10 whatever the job is worth — no bidding, no auction, no surge. Included leads expire after 30 days; leads you buy never expire.
  • No setup fees, no listing fees, no payout fees, no surcharges. This table is the whole bill.
Frequently asked questions
Fees, billing, and switching plans.
A transaction fee when a customer finds you on ShopStable: 15% on Marketplace, 11% on Professional and 10% on Scale, on the order total including shipping. It includes processing, with no additional processing charge on top. ShopStable keeps its platform fee when you refund an order. Orders from your own website pay a separate platform fee plus processing (next question). There are no listing fees or payout fees.
A transaction fee of 10% on Professional and 8% on Scale, a step below the marketplace fee because the customer was yours, plus payment processing — 2.9% + 30¢ on Professional and 2.9% + 30¢ on Scale — on the total charged, exactly like any card processor. Both are deducted from your payout, your customers never see an added fee, and neither is returned when you refund an order.
$10 to open a marketplace lead and see the customer's details — the same $10 whatever the job turns out to be worth, with no bidding and no auction. Every plan includes leads each month — 1 on Marketplace, 4 on Professional and 10 on Scale — and included leads expire after 30 days, while leads you buy never expire. Bundle prices are shown in your dashboard before you buy. A quote request from your own website is always free and exclusively yours.
Yes. The Website Builder is open on every plan, including the free Marketplace plan — you can build every page, lay it out, and preview it without spending anything. Publishing it, so it goes live on your own address, is what needs Professional or Scale. Your draft is waiting for you the moment you subscribe.
ShopStable does not calculate or collect sales tax — collecting and paying it is your responsibility as the seller. Your order history gives you the totals and ship-to details you need to file with any tax service or accountant you choose.
Absolutely. You can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time from your account settings. Upgrades take effect immediately with prorated billing, and downgrades apply at the end of your current billing period.
The Marketplace plan is free forever — no trial needed, no credit card required. Paid plans start billing when you subscribe, and you can cancel anytime.
Yes, anytime. Switching to yearly starts right away — you pay the yearly price minus credit for the unused time on your current month. Switching to monthly is just a payment change: your plan and features stay the same, and monthly billing starts at the end of the year you've already paid for.
We accept all major credit and debit cards through Stripe, including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover.
Yes, there are no long-term contracts. Cancel from your account settings at any time. Your plan remains active until the end of the current billing period.
Your website stays live until the end of the period you've paid for. After that, visitors to your address see your free Marketplace listing instead. Nothing is deleted — resubscribe anytime and your website comes right back.
