SHOPLINE is a hosted platform built around social commerce, and it fits fashion brands that sell through social channels and in more than one country. The Starter plan at $24 a month includes the online store, checkout, inventory management, built-in AI tools and SmartPush email marketing with 1,000 emails per store, so a new label can send launch emails without a separate tool. Global selling covers multiple languages and currencies, market-specific product pricing and location-based inventory for each market. Merchandising tools include product bundles, wishlists and flash sales, and SHOPLINE POS starts at $39 a month for a showroom or pop-up. The 2% third-party transaction fee on Starter falls to 0.8% on Essential at $66 a month. Its app marketplace is smaller than Shopify's or BigCommerce's, and SHOPLINE publishes fewer details on per-product variant limits, so test your largest style during the 14-day trial.
