Shopamine vs. PrestaShop

PrestaShop costs nothing to download. Ask your developer what it actually costs to run.

Shopamine PRO gives you a fully hosted B2B store, price lists, restricted catalog, real-time pricing, payment terms, and quantity controls  at €680/mo. No module licenses. No version upgrade projects. No developer required to change a price or update a customer group.

QUICK VERDICT

Where each platform wins

We'll be direct. Neither platform is right for everyone.

Choose Shopamine if you need…

  • B2B features included in PRO at €680/mo with no module licenses required for price lists, restricted product visibility, real-time pricing, payment terms, or quantity controls. On PrestaShop, each of these requires a separate paid module.
  • Hosted, updated, and maintained by Shopamine. No hosting decisions, no version upgrade projects to plan and budget, no module conflicts to diagnose when an update breaks something.
  • One support contact for the entire platform. When something needs attention, there is one team responsible not a combination of your hosting provider, PrestaShop community forums, individual module authors, and a freelance developer.

Stick with PrestaShop if you need…

  • A dedicated e-commerce platform built specifically for commerce, not a CMS with a shopping plugin grafted on. PrestaShop's architecture is purpose-built for product catalogs, checkout flows, and order management.
  • An official marketplace of 4,000+ modules and themes. If a specific integration or feature exists, there is almost certainly a PrestaShop module for it covering payment gateways, shipping carriers, ERP connectors, and marketing tools.
  • Full code access at every layer of the platform. For teams with developer capacity, PrestaShop can be customised and extended without restriction.

HOSTING & INFRASTRUCTURE

PrestaShop is self-hosted. That comes with responsibilities.

PrestaShop Classic gives you full control over your hosting environment. For teams without dedicated technical capacity, that control becomes an ongoing maintenance obligation. The table below covers what Shopamine manages for you and what PrestaShop Classic requires you to handle yourself or delegate to an agency.

BY THE NUMBER

What switching from PrestaShop looks like in practice

01

€0 in B2B module licenses

Price lists, restricted catalog visibility, real-time pricing, payment terms, and quantity controls are included in Shopamine PRO. On PrestaShop, the equivalent module stack costs €400–€1,000+ to license before hosting or developer time.

02

0 module conflicts

Every B2B feature in Shopamine is built into the platform. There is no module stack to update, no version compatibility matrix to manage, and no conflict to diagnose when something stops working after an update.

03

15 Business days

Average migration timeline from request to go-live for stores under 5,000 SKUs.

04

0 upgrade projects

Shopamine applies platform updates automatically. A PrestaShop major version upgrade requires developer involvement and module-by-module compatibility testing a project that most merchants delay for months or years because of the cost and risk.
