Slide the sliders to compare a one-time custom build plus modest ongoing hosting and maintenance against monthly SaaS store fees plus estimated card-processing percentages. Numbers are ballpark — always confirm current pricing with each vendor.
Disclaimer: Platform subscription and transaction rates change frequently and vary by region, payment provider, and promotions. This calculator uses simplified percentage-of-revenue fee math (it does not model per-transaction fixed cents). Card processing for a custom store is usually similar to SaaS platforms — compare apples to apples with your actual processor quote. A free tool by Deep Sea Fauna.
