Why build with Develo?
Don't let SaaS convenience blind you to the long-term math. As your revenue grows, Shopify's "participation model" becomes your largest technical tax.
No Revenue Tax
Stop paying 0.5% - 2.0% of your turnover to your platform. Magento (Open Source) has zero transaction fees, regardless of your gateway.
Native Complexity
Most Shopify "Apps" are core features in Magento. Stop paying monthly "rent" for basic B2B logic, multi-warehouse, or custom attributes.
Uncapped Growth
Escape API rate limits and throttles. Magento gives you direct database access and native queues to handle massive peak volumes with ease.
