Chat-based store management
QuickShops vs Payhip
Payhip has no chat-based store ops. QuickShops does — then compare fees, monthly pricing, and who owns checkout.
Payhip and QuickShops both offer a free tier with a 5% fee. Payhip's lowest paid plan is $29/mo with a 2% platform fee. QuickShops Pro is €19/mo with 0% platform fees, plus chat-based store ops instead of another dashboard.
Our edge
Chat-based store management — Payhip does not have this
Update products, pricing, and your storefront from the apps you already use. No digging through admin menus. QuickShops is built around chat-first store ops; Payhip still expects you in a dashboard.
