Charles from Snipcart here. Pricing is indeed always a delicate matter in the e-commerce world. You'll always have customers preferring a model over another. We believe the Moltin pricing will make a lot of sense for some people, but others might prefer the no-risk percentage model. I'd say it strongly depends on the merchant's business model. Side note: the guys at Moltin really have a kickass website.


Exactly, we went through four revisions of our pricing and I'm not sure we'll ever be certain it's the "right" one. We just knew we had to simplify it and after user feedback this is the one that stuck.

And thanks for the kind comments, we've always loved your animations and the attention to detail you put into your site. I mean who doesn't want a buy bacon button in their header?
