Magento vs Shopify Plus, what’s different from regular Shopify?

The key Shopify Plus features that move the comparison vs Magento:

  • Shopify Functions / Scripts, server-side custom logic for checkout, discounts, payments, shipping. Plus-only. Replaces a lot of what apps used to do; competes with Magento’s native sales-rule + observer model.
  • B2B on Shopify, companies, customer-specific catalogs, Net-30, Plus-only and still has gaps (more on that in the next FAQ).
  • Multiple expansion stores, Plus includes 9 expansion stores (extra orgs for different regions/brands) at no extra cost.
  • Launchpad / Bulk Editor / Flow, automation for sales, inventory, fraud, closes the gap on Magento’s admin power.
  • Higher API limits, dedicated support, Avalanche checkout

Plus pricing starts at $2,300/mo or 0.4% of GMV (whichever’s greater), with a hard floor and per-tx fees on top. The gap to regular Shopify Advanced ($399/mo) is significant, most of the Magento-vs-Shopify discussion at the upper-mid market is really Magento vs Shopify Plus.
