What is Shopify?
Shopify is the world's largest hosted ecommerce platform powering over 4 million stores. It offers an all-in-one solution with payments, shipping, inventory, and marketing tools.
What is Saleor?
Saleor is a GraphQL-native, open-source ecommerce platform built with Python and Django. It was purpose-built for multi-market commerce with native support for multiple currencies, languages, and warehouses. Used by brands processing millions in GMV across global markets.
Key Differences
API Architecture
Saleor is GraphQL-native — every feature is accessible through a single, well-typed GraphQL API. Shopify offers both REST and GraphQL but many features still require REST or apps.
Multi-Market Commerce
Saleor has native multi-currency, multi-language, and multi-warehouse support built into the core. Shopify requires Shopify Markets and third-party apps for comparable functionality.
Technology Stack
Saleor uses Python/Django — one of the most popular backend stacks globally. Shopify uses Ruby on Rails internally and exposes Liquid for themes. Saleor is more accessible for teams with Python expertise.
Transaction Fees
Saleor charges zero platform transaction fees. Shopify charges 0.5-2% unless using Shopify Payments, which is only available in select countries.
Ecosystem Size
Shopify has 8,000+ apps and a massive theme marketplace. Saleor has a growing but smaller ecosystem — you build more custom functionality but have fewer off-the-shelf solutions.
Performance Comparison
| Metric | Shopify | Saleor |
|---|---|---|
| CDN | Cloudflare (global) | BYO or Saleor Cloud CDN |
| Uptime SLA | 99.98% | 99.9% (Saleor Cloud) |
| API rate limit | 2 req/sec (basic) | Unlimited (self-hosted) |
| Page load time | ~2.5s (Liquid themes) | ~1.3s (headless frontend) |
SEO Comparison
