Visit Snipcart

Snipcart is a developer-first HTML/JavaScript shopping cart platform that adds e-commerce functionality to existing websites and web applications. It works with any site builder, CMS, or framework, including WordPress, Drupal, and Jamstack projects, as long as you control the HTML output. It supports both physical and digital products, as well as subscriptions.

Key features include a merchant dashboard for managing orders, customers, discounts, abandoned carts, and analytics, alongside a customer dashboard with order history. Snipcart supports multi-currency payments, shipping with real-time estimates, inventory management, tax automation, and invoicing. It integrates with payment gateways such as PayPal Express Checkout, and connects to external tools through a RESTful API, a JS API, and webhooks. Security features include HTTPS/SSL encryption and crawl back verification. The platform is compatible with React, Vue, Angular, and Node.

Snipcart is aimed at developers, agencies, and web designers building e-commerce into client sites or their own projects. It is packaged with a free plan for test development that includes unlimited products, variants, discounts, domains, and tax rates. Paid usage is based on a percentage of transactions, with a monthly fee for accounts below a sales threshold, plus payment gateway fees.
