Shopify alternative

The Shopify alternative for service businesses.

Shopify is built around the store. ShopStable is built around the local business, services and products on one site, a marketplace listing, and a quote inbox, without a plugin maze. Free to start.

Shopify sells you the store. The rest of a local business is extra.

  • Booking, quote capture, and service-area logic all require paid apps.

  • Listing a service next to a product means bending a storefront into a shape it was not built for.

  • A paid monthly plan starts before you’ve added a thing.

  • Getting found locally is something you have to build, and buy, yourself.

Everything a local business actually uses, services and products alike.

01
One site, both catalogs.
Service pages, hours, and areas beside a real product catalog with checkout. Built in, not bolted on.
02
Marketplace listing included.
Get found in the ShopStable local marketplace from day one, no extra app required.
03
Quote inbox + CRM.
Quote requests, product orders, and customer conversations live in your dashboard. No third-party CRM to buy.
Why ShopStable

Built for local business, priced fairly.

  • No plugin maze. Services, products, and lead capture are built in.

  • Marketplace listing, checkout, and quote inbox included on every plan.

  • Flat-rate marketplace leads, the same price every time.

  • Free to start. Upgrade only when you need a custom domain.

The big platforms turned local businesses into line items, renting them visibility and auctioning their leads. We think you should own what you build instead.

That's the whole idea behind ShopStable: a real website on your own subdomain, a marketplace that brings customers to you, and leads from $10. Your brand, with clear, published fees.
