Pricing \u2013 Squarespace Wins<\/h2>\n<p>Quick verdict:<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to the pricing of BigCommerce vs Squarespace, Squarespace takes the lead. Its plans start lower, scale more predictably, and include a free domain for the first year.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/bigcommerce-pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BigCommerce pricing<\/a> offers three core plans plus a custom Enterprise tier. Each plan comes with 24\/7 support, unlimited products, unlimited staff accounts, and zero transaction fees on every tier.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_88478\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-88478\" style=\"width: 1876px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-88478\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bigcommerce-pricing-plans.webp\" alt=\"BigCommerce pricing plans\" width=\"1876\" height=\"790\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bigcommerce-pricing-plans.webp 1876w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bigcommerce-pricing-plans-300x126.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bigcommerce-pricing-plans-1024x431.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bigcommerce-pricing-plans-768x323.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bigcommerce-pricing-plans-1536x647.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1876px) 100vw, 1876px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-88478\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BigCommerce pricing plans<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>What makes BigCommerce unique is that your plan is tied to how much you sell. Standard maxes out at $50,000 in annual sales, Plus at $180,000, and Pro at $400,000 per year, and once you cross a threshold, BigCommerce automatically moves you up to the next (more expensive) tier. This keeps you on the right plan for your stage of growth, but it can also catch new sellers off guard if their sales climb quickly.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Squarespace also offers four plans, including Basic, Core, Plus, and Advanced. When billed annually, Squarespace costs between $16 and $99 per month across its four plans. Every <a href=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/squarespace-pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Squarespace pricing<\/a> comes with a 14-day free trial, and paying annually also gets you a free custom domain for the first year.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_90925\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-90925\" style=\"width: 1904px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-90925\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/squarespace-pricing.webp\" alt=\"Squarespace pricing\" width=\"1904\" height=\"909\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/squarespace-pricing.webp 1904w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/squarespace-pricing-300x143.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/squarespace-pricing-1024x489.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/squarespace-pricing-768x367.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/squarespace-pricing-1536x733.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1904px) 100vw, 1904px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-90925\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Squarespace pricing<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>One key thing to watch is transaction fees. The Core, Plus, and Advanced plans have 0% transaction fees, while the entry-level Basic plan charges a transaction fee on each sale. For that reason, most serious sellers will want to start on Core rather than Basic. The Core plan ($23\/month) is the most complete option for most people, including 0% transaction fees on physical products, custom code injection, real-time shipping quotes, and full ecommerce analytics.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>#2. Scalability & Growth \u2013 BigCommerce Wins<\/h2>\n<div class=\"table3\">\n<p><strong>Quick verdict<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>When comparing BigCommerce vs Squarespace on scalability, BigCommerce wins. It gives you a clear, structured path from a small store all the way up to enterprise-level selling, with the infrastructure to match.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>BigCommerce has sales limits per year on its standard plans (Standard, Plus, Pro). As your eCommerce growth hits a sales cap, BigCommerce can automatically upgrade you to a higher (more expensive) plan or encourage an enterprise-level solution.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the sales limit on BigCommerce for each tier:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Standard: Up to $50k<\/li>\n<li>Plus: Up to $180k<\/li>\n<li>Pro: Up to $400k in online sales, +$150\/mo charges $200k for each additional $200k in online sales<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With BigCommerce, there's always the Enterprise solution for huge businesses. This provides custom pricing and features, ensuring the platform can scale alongside you.<\/p>\n<p>On the flip side of the BigCommerce vs Squarespace comparison, Squarespace does not have any sales limits on its lower-priced plans.\u00a0Although there are no feature tiers or sales limits, you may experience performance limitations at very high volumes. In such cases, Squarespace's API and developer tools can provide workarounds, but this requires more technical knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a very complex store, sudden spikes in traffic could strain the performance even more. So, while Squarespace might perform well under usual circumstances, it's essential to research the platform's limitations regarding scalability.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>#3. Ease of Use \u2013 Squarespace Wins<\/h2>\n<div class=\"table3\">\n<p><strong>Quick verdict<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>Between BigCommerce vs Squarespace, when it comes to ease of use, Squarespace is much easier for beginners than BigCommerce. Its guided setup, AI-powered builder, and intuitive drag-and-drop editor make it far friendlier for beginners.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>With BigCommerce, your eCommerce store can be easily launched and maintained. Because it is a fully hosted platform, you don't need to set up hosting or install any software to get started.

And if you want control over every aspect of your store's design and functionality, BigCommerce can definitely give you that power.<\/p>\n<p>Among website builders, Squarespace is one of the most user-friendly platforms. You don't need to touch a single line of code because the platform is purely drag-and-drop, allowing you to quickly add and modify any items on your pages. All you need to do is answer three simple questions and choose to build your website with Squarespace Blueprint (the AI website builder) or start with a template.<\/p>\n<p>The AI builder is a noticeable differentiator between BigCommerce vs Squarespace. You simply describe your business and style preferences, and Blueprint AI walks you through choices for your site's structure, pages, fonts, and colors, producing a polished, functional site you can launch and manage without additional tools. In practice, this gets you from a blank page to a working starting point very quickly.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_47016\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-47016\" style=\"width: 1536px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-47016\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Dashboard.webp\" alt=\"Squarespace Dashboard\" width=\"1536\" height=\"850\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Dashboard.webp 1536w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Dashboard-300x166.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Dashboard-1024x567.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Dashboard-768x425.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-47016\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Squarespace simple dashboard<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Beyond setup, the everyday editing experience is smooth thanks to true drag-and-drop controls, letting you adjust layouts, fonts, and colors visually without touching code.

Design & Templates \u2013 Squarespace Wins<\/h2>\n<div class=\"table3\">\n<p><strong>Quick verdict<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>In terms of design and templates, BigCommerce vs Squarespace, Squarespace wins. Its themes are widely regarded as the most beautiful in the website-building space, and its true drag-and-drop editor gives non-designers an easier path to a polished store.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>It's fair to say design isn't BigCommerce's headline strength. As a backend-first platform, BigCommerce features functional and responsive layouts, but not much more. There are a limited number of <a href=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/free-bigcommerce-themes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">free BigCommerce themes<\/a> available, with most other themes being paid options that typically run from $150 to $300.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_47019\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-47019\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-47019\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/BigCommerce-theme-store.webp\" alt=\"BigCommerce theme store\" width=\"1024\" height=\"642\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/BigCommerce-theme-store.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/BigCommerce-theme-store-300x188.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/BigCommerce-theme-store-768x482.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-47019\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BigCommerce Theme Store<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>On the bright side, BigCommerce themes are built specifically for online selling, running on its modern Stencil framework. Every theme is responsive and optimized for both small and large catalogs, so your storefront performs well across devices. Furthermore, for more diversity, you may purchase the top BigCommerce themes at <a href=\"https:\/\/themeforest.net\/category\/ecommerce\/bigcommerce\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Themeforest<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Squarespace templates are very eye-catching and extremely professional, offering users 200+ designer-grade templates across different categories. All these themes are already included in your pricing plan, so you won't have to worry about an additional fee.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-47022\" style=\"font-weight: 600; text-align: center;\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Templates.webp\" alt=\"Squarespace Templates\" width=\"1323\" height=\"608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Templates.webp 1323w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Templates-300x138.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Templates-1024x471.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Templates-768x353.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1323px) 100vw, 1323px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Squarespace TemplatesJust as important, Squarespace makes those templates easy to customize without code.

With BigCommerce, you will be assisted more and your eCommerce experience will also improve.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Inventory management<\/h3>\n<p>BigCommerce handles inventory with the scale of larger catalogs in mind. It provides comprehensive catalog management out of the box, letting you create and organize product listings with variants, bundles, and digital products. The platform supports unlimited products on every plan and integrates with third-party systems, so you can manage stock across a website, social channels, and marketplaces from one place.<\/p>\n<p>On the flip side, Squarespace also offers a clean, user-friendly inventory panel that makes adding products, adjusting stock levels, and bulk editing straightforward. It's well-suited to small and medium catalogs, though it doesn't offer the same depth of catalog tooling that high-volume sellers eventually need.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-47028\" style=\"font-weight: 600; text-align: center;\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Inventory-Management.webp\" alt=\"Squarespace Inventory Management\" width=\"1600\" height=\"489\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Inventory-Management.webp 1600w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Inventory-Management-300x92.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Inventory-Management-1024x313.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Inventory-Management-768x235.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Squarespace-Inventory-Management-1536x469.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Squarespace Inventory Management<\/p>\n<h3>B2B eCommerce<\/h3>\n<p>BigCommerce seems to be more expensive from the start but includes more of what B2B stores need natively. This platform's wholesale pricing and customer group functionality is a big time-saver. Specifically, BigCommerce lets you manage this within the core platform.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_72695\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-72695\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-72695\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/company-sort-order.png\" alt=\"BigCommerce for B2B\" width=\"750\" height=\"138\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/company-sort-order.png 750w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/company-sort-order-300x55.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-72695\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BigCommerce for B2B<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>While BigCommerce has a good B2B foundation, the app marketplace provides specialized solutions if you need to go even deeper (things like integrations with procurement systems, advanced quote management, etc.).<\/p>\n<p>Though Squarespace appears cheaper initially, its reliance on multiple paid apps to bridge the B2B gap could quickly close that price differential. To replicate most of BigCommerce's native features, Squarespace would require finding and integrating various third-party apps.<\/p>\n<p>If your B2B side is a smaller portion of your business and orders are relatively straightforward, Squarespace could work.<\/p>\n<h3>Multichannel selling<\/h3>\n<p>Selling beyond your own website is where BigCommerce really pulls ahead. BigCommerce supports multi-channel selling across Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Google Shopping natively, syncing inventory and orders across all of them. This makes it simple to expand your reach without juggling disconnected systems.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Squarespace does integrate with social platforms like Instagram and Facebook, and it works with dropshipping extensions such as Spocket and Printful. However, its multichannel reach is narrower, so merchants planning to sell across multiple marketplaces will find BigCommerce far better equipped.<\/p>\n<h3>Payment gateways<\/h3>\n<p>Over 250 local payment methods in over 100 countries and over 65 payment gateway integrations are ready to help BigCommerce users.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_47029\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-47029\" style=\"width: 1280px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-47029\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/BigCommerce-Payment-Gateways.webp\" alt=\"BigCommerce Payment Gateways\" width=\"1280\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/BigCommerce-Payment-Gateways.webp 1280w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/BigCommerce-Payment-Gateways-300x188.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/BigCommerce-Payment-Gateways-1024x640.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/BigCommerce-Payment-Gateways-768x480.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-47029\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BigCommerce Payment Gateways<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This website builder also provides integrations for the most widely used mobile and digital wallets, including Paypal, Apple Pay, and Amazon Pay.

Among them, Paypal and Stripe enable users to pay with widely used debit and credit cards from other countries, including Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. In addition, Square lets business owners use the Squarespace POS to take payments in person, including cash and credit cards.<\/p>\n<h3>Shipping<\/h3>\n<p>BigCommerce has integrations with major shipping carriers (such as USPS, FedEx, UPS, DHL, etc.). This provides flexibility to select the best carriers for your business.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more, the ability to fetch real-time shipping quotes during checkout offers customers accurate shipping costs at the point of decision, which can help reduce cart abandonment.<\/p>\n<p>Squarespace integrates with major carriers, but the selection isn't as wide as BigCommerce. This could limit your options depending on your location or desired providers. While Squarespace offers real-time rates, their availability depends on which carriers you're using.<\/p>\n<p>Setting up international shipping on Squarespace is possible, but it typically requires more manual configuration or third-party apps for a streamlined experience.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>#6.
