If you want to start your own online shopping site in Singapore, the first step is to select a platform. The three most-popular platforms for ecommerce Singapore are BigCommerce, WooCommerce and Shopify.

Here’s a quick review of each.

1. Shopify is considered to be one of the most advanced ecommerce platforms. Numerous free themes, easy to set up, and great features make Shopify a true winner. Yes, it comes for a price, and you have to pay a transaction if you use anything else other than Shopify Payment, but overall, the features are super handy.
2. WooCommerce gets the support of the WordPress community and is free, which probably is the biggest advantage. WooCommerce is easy to use for most people, as long as they have basic understanding of WordPress. Don’t expect too many advanced features though, and you have to still pay for domain and hosting.
3. The last one on our list is BigCommerce¸ which offers the advantage no transaction fee as charged by Shopify and some other platforms. However, BigCommerce doesn’t have too many free themes, so you have to pay for one in all likeliness.

Check all these ecommerce platforms and select one based on your website’s unique requirements.
