Gumroad made selling digital products easy, and it charges for that ease in a way many sellers only notice once the sales add up. The pricing page I reviewed lists 10% plus $0.50 on every direct sale, and 30% on sales that come through its Discover marketplace. There is no monthly fee, which sounds great […]

Photoshop is the editor most people think of first, and it is a subscription you pay for every month. The Adobe page I reviewed lists the single app at $22.99 a month on an annual plan billed monthly, and there is no free plan, only a 7-day trial. For a store owner who mostly crops […]

It does the job well, but it has no free plan on the page I reviewed, and the price you see at signup is not always the […]

Airtable gives store owners a spreadsheet that behaves like a database, and many use it for product catalogs, supplier lists, order tracking, and lead pipelines. It is a strong tool, but the paid plans bill per seat, and once your team grows or your records pile up, the cost climbs. If you are weighing alternatives, […]
