Your own online shop - not a page on someone else's marketplace - with cash on delivery, card payments and your own domain. Free to start, set up in minutes.
There are two common ways to get an online shop, and they cost very differently.
| Custom-built website | Carttrix | |
|---|---|---|
| Up-front cost | A one-off build fee to a developer or agency | Rs 0 on the free plan |
| Running cost | Hosting, domain, maintenance, and paid changes | Free forever, or from Rs 4,999/year, hosting included |
| Time to launch | Weeks to months | Minutes |
| Changing products or prices | Often needs the developer | You do it yourself in the admin panel |
| Commission on sales | None | None (0%) |
A custom site can be the right call for something unusual. For most shops - clothing, electronics, groceries, handicrafts, books - a ready-made store does the same job for a fraction of the cost, and you can start today.
Taking orders in messages works until it doesn't: prices get asked again and again, orders get lost in chats, and your customer list belongs to the platform. A store of your own shows every product and price, takes orders while you sleep, and keeps your customers' details with you. Keep posting on social media - and link every post to your store.
