Built for
The kinds of shops we know.
01 — Bakeries
Sourdough subscriptions and Saturday pickups.
Standing orders, custom items, and a collection window that everyone in the neighbourhood already knows.
02 — Boutiques
Storefront, till and stock that match.
Ring up a sale on the floor and the website knows. No more selling something twice by accident.
03 — Producers
Wholesale and direct, one catalogue.
Sell to other shops at trade prices and to your customers at retail — same products, same stock, same place.

The moat
Zero transaction fees from us. Ever.
Most shop platforms quietly take a slice of every sale you make. Shopify takes 2%. Yoco Online takes 2.95%. Wix takes a cut too.
Winkl charges a flat monthly fee and that is it. Your courier and payment gateway charge their own fees, paid directly to them — not to us. The more you sell, the more you keep.
