FluentCart vs. SureCart
WordPress First, Not Just WordPress Compatible
FluentCart is purpose-built for WordPress. No platform dependencies, no hidden APIs, and no risk of vendor lock-in. It’s a fully self-hosted eCommerce system that gives you complete control over performance, data, and scaling.
Bringing the Change for WordPress
Great work ditching the growth tax.
Now, it’s
time to democratise!
In all honesty, we’re glad to have influenced this decision by SureCart to reevaulate their pricing model.
Removing transaction fees is a big step in the right direction for the eCommerce community.
This not only makes eCommerce more accessible for small businesses, it challenges the current assumptions about eCommerce on WordPress.
The next move? Open Source!
We’re more than hopeful that SureCart will join us in the Open Source movement, to democratise selling on WordPress.
Not renting, Own your Store front.
FluentCart lives inside your WordPress install. There’s no cloud dependency, no backend calls to proprietary servers.
No chance of your store being turned off externally. Full access to all files and data.
Built for Service + Software Sellers.
FluentCart isn’t just about selling “items.” It’s made for digital-first and hybrid businesses, too.
Whether it’s hardcovers or ebooks, sell from the same listing.
Transparent Pricing, Forever.
Some will charge upto 4% per sale unless you upgrade. Even when you pay up, they want a cut from your sales.
FluentCart’s Pro plan includes everything, no extra fees.
FluentCart Gives You the Tools and Gets Out of Your Way.
FluentCart is WordPress-native, extensible, and developer-first. If you’ve built for WooCommerce or Easy Digital Downloads, you’ll love how clean and fast FluentCart runs.
Need REST APIs? Hooks? Custom Post Types? They’re all here. It’s simple and safe. There are no extra dashboards or logins. It works like WordPress should.
