How much does Shopify cost in the UK?

On monthly billing, Shopify UK prices checked on 10 October 2026 were Basic £25, Grow £65, and Advanced £344 a month. Yearly billing works out at £19, £49, and £259 a month. Shopify was also offering 3 days free, then £1 a month for 3 months.

Which Shopify plan should a new store choose?

A first store with one person running it fits Basic. Grow is for a team of up to five extra staff accounts, or for a store whose card sales are high enough that the lower card rate covers the higher subscription.

Shopify pricing

A new UK shop on Basic is £25 a month, or £19 a month if you pay yearly. Card payments are extra. Grow and Advanced cost more and take a smaller cut of each sale.

Checked 10 October 2026 on Shopify’s UK pricing page and the US page. Confirm there before you pay.

Start on Basic if one person is running the store. Move to Grow when you need staff logins, or when UK card sales pass about £13,300 a month on monthly billing. Advanced is a high-volume plan, not a starter plan.

The intro price is not the plan price

Shopify’s UK page currently offers 3 days free, then £1 a month for 3 months. The US offer is the same shape: 3 days free, then $1 a month for 3 months. After that, the normal plan price applies. Budget for the normal price.

UK prices

Plan	Monthly	Yearly, per month	Online cards	Extra staff
Basic	£25	£19	2% + 25p	None
Grow	£65	£49	1.7% + 25p	5
Advanced	£344	£259	1.5% + 25p	15

Plus starts at £1,800 a month and is a different sales process. It is not the plan this guide is for.

US prices

Plan	Monthly	Yearly, per month	Online cards
Basic	$39	$29	2.9% + 30¢
Grow	$105	$79	2.7% + 30¢
Advanced	$399	$299	2.5% + 30¢

Plus starts at $2,300 a month. POS Pro, for a staffed shop counter, is £69 or $89 a month per location on top of the plan.

What else you pay

Card fees on every order, at the rate for your plan. The 25p or 30¢ is per transaction.
A third-party payment provider adds another fee if you do not use Shopify Payments: 2% on Basic, 1% on Grow, 0.6% on Advanced, in both the UK and US tables.
Apps and paid themes, if you install them. A new store can launch on the free theme with no apps.
A domain, if you want your own name. Shopify gives you a myshopify.com address either way.

When Grow costs less than Basic

On UK monthly billing, Grow is £40 more than Basic and charges 0.3 percentage points less on online cards. The fee saving covers that £40 at about £13,300 of card sales in a month. On yearly billing the gap is £30, which is about £10,000 of card sales.

That sum ignores staff accounts. If a second person needs their own login, Grow is the reason, even when sales are lower. Advanced is £279 more than Grow on UK monthly billing and saves another 0.2 points, which only pays for itself at very high card volume. People take Advanced earlier for 15 staff accounts or live third-party shipping rates.

Which plan to pick

Basic

One person, first products, online orders. Ten inventory locations are included on Basic, Grow, and Advanced, so a second stock location is not a reason to upgrade.

Grow

You need up to five extra staff accounts, or your card sales are past the break-even above.

Advanced

A larger team, or you need carrier-calculated shipping rates at checkout. Skip it on day one.

Start on Basic

You can change plan later. Commission is paid on Basic, Grow, and Advanced after a full-price month.

Questions

Is the £1 month the real cost?

It is a short intro. The prices in the tables are what the plan costs after that.

Can I cancel?

Shopify’s pricing page says you can cancel. Read the terms in checkout if you take a longer Plus contract. Plus is not needed to open a normal store.
