The cost problem

Shopify charges per transaction. ilanoShop doesn't.

Shopify charges 2% on every sale if you're using Paystack or Flutterwave instead of Shopify Payments (which isn't available in Nigeria). On ₦500,000 in monthly sales, that's ₦10,000 per month going to Shopify — every month, just for existing. ilanoShop charges 0%.

Shopify Basic (without Shopify Payments)2%
Shopify Starter5%

Standard payment processor fees (Stripe) apply on both platforms. Only ilanoShop charges no platform fee on top.

Built for Nigeria — not just translated

ilanoShop has native Paystack integration built in — not a plugin, not an app, but first-class support for Nigeria's most-used payment gateway. Your customers can pay by card, bank transfer, or USSD in Naira without leaving your store. Flutterwave is also supported for sellers operating across multiple African markets.
