Babuki vs website builders with a fee per sale
Two ways to put a shop online
Most website builders start free and take a share of every sale, or charge monthly to remove it. Babuki charges one flat price and never takes a share. Here is how they usually line up.
| Babuki | A typical builder | |
|---|---|---|
| Price for no buyer platform fee | ₹500 a month | About ₹999 a month, or less if you prepay several years up front |
| Commission on sales | 0%, on every plan | Often 2.5% on free plans and around 1% on cheaper paid plans |
| To get started | First month, ₹500 | Often a prepaid balance or wallet top-up |
| Charges per enquiry | None | Some charge per enquiry on free plans |
| Your own domain | ₹1,000 once: we buy it and renew it for you | Usually you buy and renew it yourself |
| Card, UPI and netbanking checkout | Yes, secure checkout built in; 0% commission | Usually yes, through their payment gateway |
| When the money reaches you | The full cart value, in your bank within 1–2 working days of confirming the order | Varies; often after a payout cycle |
| Courier and local delivery | Yes, booked for you, with tracking; or deliver yourself | Often, through shipping add-ons |
| Your own payment gateway | Yes, on a plan, with your own delivery | Sometimes |
| Phone app for your shop | Yes, the Babuki Shop Android app | Sometimes included |
| GST invoices and billing | A tax invoice for every online order; no in-shop billing counter | Sometimes included |
| Found by buyers nearby | Yes: every shop is listed on babuky.com | Rarely |
| Found on Google | Yes, automatically: every shop and item gets its own search-ready page | Often, with SEO settings you fill in yourself |
