How to choose E-Commerce platforms
Start with what you sell and where customers buy it. A simple store has different needs from a business handling several sales channels, while an existing website may only need a cart or checkout.

Build your online store
For e-commerce websites, focus on the setup style and the services you need around your store. Ready-made templates and hosting can make the starting point clearer, while open-source choices give you another route.
- Shopify gives you hosted store templates backed by round-the-clock human support.
- Jumpseller suits a hosted store that can also sell through social and shopping channels.
- Sellfy helps you create a store for digital products without coding.

Connect sales and operations
Selling on several marketplaces makes inventory management and multichannel selling more important. Look for connections to the places where you already sell and the services that handle shipping.
- Sellbrite brings orders and stock from major marketplaces into one workflow.
- Shopping Cart Elite fits businesses coordinating inventory and orders across Amazon and eBay.
- Sana Commerce connects an online store with Microsoft Dynamics or SAP business systems.

Shape the technical setup
An existing site may need only e-commerce checkout, while a custom project may call for open source e-commerce or a headless setup. Your developer can match the platform to the site technology and payment services already in use.
- Snipcart adds a cart and checkout to an existing website, including WordPress sites.
- Drupal Commerce supports open-source and headless store projects with an application programming interface.
- cubecart offers an open-source store that can be self-hosted or run with managed hosting.
