Shopify Pricing & Plans by Country

How Shopify pricing works

Ask what Shopify costs and you usually get the American answer. It is right in exactly one country. Everywhere else the subscription is quoted in local currency or converted from dollars, card rates differ by market and by card type, and the payment methods your customers actually use are priced on their own. In the UAE, for example, Shopify bills in US dollars: $32 a month for Basic, $92 for Grow and $399 for Advanced, which lands at AED 117, 338 and 1,464 at the pegged rate, with standard cards at 2.9% plus AED 1.00 per order on Basic.

Every store pays up to three separate things. The subscription is the fixed monthly plan fee, and it only matters in proportion to your order volume. Payment processing is the percentage plus a fixed fee on every sale, and higher plans carry lower rates in every market we checked. The third-party transaction fee is the one that surprises people: process payments through anything other than Shopify Payments and Shopify adds its own charge on top, from 2% on Basic down to 0.2% on Plus.

The table below shows the monthly price of each plan in 24 markets, billed monthly in local currency, with the Shopify Payments standard card rate on Basic. Plus is custom-priced everywhere. Open a market for annual pricing, Amex and international card rates, local payment methods, third-party fees and tax notes.

Monthly billing. Annual billing is cheaper in every market and is shown on each country page. Rates are verified against Shopify's official pricing page for each country on the date shown on its card.

Why the plan price is the smaller number

At 50 orders a month a Basic plan is a meaningful cost per order. At 500 it is a rounding error and the processing rate is everything, which is why a store in one market can pay a very different effective fee than a store in another, even on the same plan. The calculators localize the maths so your margin reflects the fees you actually pay, not the headline subscription.

Each market page includes the current plan pricing, Shopify Payments and local payment method rates, third-party transaction fees, tax notes, break-even pricing and a live price-sensitivity table. More markets are being added. If you need a specific country, get in touch.
