01Price

Lira or dollars?

Shopify's prices in Turkey are in dollars: with annual payment, Basic is $19 per month, Grow $54, Advanced $299. As the exchange rate changes, so does the lira equivalent. You can see your total monthly cost, including plan fee, transaction fee and apps, with your own figures using the Shopify cost calculator.

Faprika plans are priced in Turkish lira: Start 1.650 TL, Master 2.240 TL, Ultimate 3.740 TL, Elite 5.333 TL (monthly, with annual payment).

02Payment

Fee per sale

Shopify's own payment system, Shopify Payments, is not available in Turkey. Stores in Turkey work with an external payment provider; in that case Shopify charges an additional transaction fee of 2%, 1% or 0,6% on every sale, depending on the plan. This fee is on top of the payment provider's own commission.

On Faprika, the virtual POS is included in the plan and Faprika does not take a share of your sales.

03e-Invoice

e-Invoice

In Turkey, e-commerce sales must be documented with an e-invoice or an e-archive invoice. Shopify's own invoice is not a valid tax document according to the GİB (Turkish Revenue Administration). An e-invoice requires a separate app and an integrator.

In Faprika's Ultimate and Elite plans, orders are automatically converted into an e-invoice or e-archive invoice, and the invoice link is also reported to the marketplaces.

04Marketplaces

Marketplaces

If you also sell on Trendyol, Hepsiburada or N11, stock, prices and orders need to be managed from one place. Shopify's own marketplace app works with Amazon, eBay, Walmart and Target Plus; Turkish marketplaces require a separate app.

On Faprika, the marketplace integration is two-way and runs in a single panel: when stock drops on one channel, it is updated on the others too. The Marketplace Integration Plan includes 16 marketplaces, among them Trendyol, Hepsiburada, N11, Amazon (22 countries), Ozon, AliExpress and Temu. Sellers who sell only on marketplaces can start without building a website; the Faprika team handles the setup.

05Shipping and support

Shipping and support

Faprika has 23 carrier integrations and contracted shipping rates. All plans include unlimited support; technical support is provided in Turkish by phone and support ticket.

Decision

Who is Shopify better suited for?

Shopify

Shopify can be a good option for businesses that sell mostly abroad, are used to dollar-based costs and have a company in a country where Shopify Payments is available.

Faprika

For a business that sells in Turkey, issues e-invoices and also sells on marketplaces, Faprika does the same job in a single panel, without extra apps or dollar costs.
