Sellit vs Shopify
Sellit vs Shopify in Georgia
Shopify was built for America. Sellit is built for Georgia. The real difference isn’t features — it’s getting paid.
Updated: August 11, 2026
The real gap: card payments
Shopify Payments is not available in Georgia. To take card payments, a Georgian merchant must connect a third-party gateway — and Shopify adds a 2% surcharge on every sale for that, on top of the gateway’s own fees.
Sellit takes 0% commission on sales — no cut at all, let alone a 2% penalty. Buyers pay by card and the money lands directly in your own Bank of Georgia or TBC account — Sellit never holds your funds and never takes a cut of the sale.

Made for Georgia
Built for how Georgia actually sells.
Georgian cards, Georgian couriers, Georgian language, prices in lari. Not a global tool bent to fit the local market — a shop built for it from the ground up, so getting paid just works.
When Shopify is the better choice
We’ll be honest: if you sell mainly abroad or run an international / dropshipping business, Shopify’s global reach is a real advantage and probably the right tool. Sellit is built for businesses selling to customers here in Georgia — Georgian cards, Georgian couriers, Georgian language. If that’s you, Sellit will cost you less and pay you faster.
