Paid monthly, the Advanced plan costs ₹30,164 a month. The India page also prints a yearly price for Basic, Grow and Advanced, and Shopify's Help Center says annual billing charges the full year upfront and presents a lower effective monthly rate. The plan cards open on the yearly price, so the first plan price you see is not what monthly billing costs.
Shopify Plus starts at ₹175,000 a month paid monthly and has no yearly price on the India page; that is the 3-year-term rate in Shopify's Help Center, and a 1-year term costs more.
POS Pro adds ₹7,000 a month per location on Basic, Grow and Advanced, while for Plus the India page's POS Pro row reads “Includes 20 locations”. The page also says there are no setup fees on any plan.
The Help Center says the Starter plan isn't available to new stores, and the India page shows no rupee price for it. For another country, what Shopify costs in the UK is answered in pounds.
What fees do Indian stores pay on each sale?
India isn't on the Shopify Payments country list we read on October 30, 2026, and the Help Center says a store in an unlisted country needs a third-party payment provider. That means two sets of charges: Shopify's fee on every payment taken through that provider, and the provider's own card rates.
The first is Shopify's third-party transaction fee, and the rate depends on your plan. On the India pricing page it is 2% on Basic, 1% on Grow, 0.6% on Advanced and 0.2% on Plus.
The second is your provider's: a third-party provider charges its own card rates separately, and the India page's line on card fees gives no figure. Budget Shopify's percentage plus the rate your provider quotes, and compare which providers add UPI to an Indian store before you choose.
Do Shopify's India prices include GST?
The Help Center says that if your store is located in India, you're charged GST on your Shopify fees, and the charge is reflected on your monthly or yearly Shopify bills. How Shopify taxes its own fees country by country is a separate answer.
No Shopify page we read on October 30, 2026 — the India pricing page and the Help Center's billing-tax page for India among them — says whether the rupee prices include GST or names the GST rate on a Shopify bill. Shopify's Terms of Service state that all fees are exclusive of applicable taxes, but that clause is general and doesn't name India.
What do you pay when you start an Indian store?
As of October 2026, Shopify's India pricing page offers a free 3-day trial with no credit card required; after it, most plans cost ₹20 a month for the first 3 months, then switch to standard monthly pricing. The page doesn't say which plans “most” covers. How the 3-month introductory rate works is explained separately.
Separately, the Help Center lists Basic, Grow and Advanced among the plans you can test during the free trial.
Shopify bills a subscription in Indian rupees (INR) among other currencies, depending on your location, and you can pay Shopify bills in INR by UPI or by a co-branded Visa, Mastercard or RuPay card. A bill above a set amount needs your bank's approval — why your bank may ask you to authorize a Shopify bill covers it.
