Build the shop first, pay when it sells something
Most store platforms want a subscription before you have seen what your shop looks like. This one runs the other way round. The builder opens without an account, publishing costs nothing, hosting is ours, and the first money that changes hands is a commission on a sale that already happened.
What costs nothing to run
- The builder
- It opens at app.fungies.io/builder before you have signed up. More than twenty pre-made storefronts to start from, then sections for text, image, video, gallery, points, slider and recent products.
- Hosting and the address
- Your store publishes on a Fungies subdomain that we host. There is no server to rent, no build to deploy and no bill for traffic on a page that is doing well.
- The checkout
- It is already attached to the storefront. No integration step between finishing a page and being able to take money on it, and no separate gateway to sign up for.
- Delivery
- Files and game keys reach the buyer on payment. Keys are encrypted on upload and handed out as they sell, so fulfilment is not a job you do in the evenings.
- The customer portal
- Order history, downloads, keys and subscription controls, branded as yours. Without one, every re-download request arrives as an email addressed to you personally.
- Being found
- A sitemap, per-page SEO settings and a Google Merchant Center feed are generated as part of publishing rather than sold as an add-on later.
Getting from an idea to a live shop
- 01
Lay it out with no account
Pick a template, change the fonts and colours, add the pages you want. You are looking at your actual storefront, not a marketing mock-up of one.
- 02
Add what you sell
Downloads, subscriptions, memberships, game keys, in-game items or one-off purchases. Products carry variants, subscriptions carry plans, and free products are allowed.
- 03
Publish
The store is live on your subdomain straight away. Setup is roughly five minutes of work, and nothing has been charged at this point.
- 04
Connect a payout account when you want the money
This is the only gate, and it sits at the point of being paid rather than the point of building. Identity and verification requirements apply here.
What free means here, precisely
Nothing is charged in a month with no sales
There is no subscription, no setup cost, no hosting line and no minimum. A quiet month costs you nothing at all, which is a materially different risk from a platform that bills whether or not anyone bought anything.
One charge, and it only lands on a sale
A flat 5% + 50¢ per successful transaction. That covers payment processing, tax calculation and filing, fraud screening, chargebacks and every feature on the platform. There is no higher tier that unlocks the good parts. Negotiable once you are selling at volume.
The things you do pay for elsewhere
A custom domain is yours to buy — we host the store but we do not sell domains, and a domain you connect is moved to Cloudflare for DDoS protection. That has been required since October 2024.
A percentage is not free at every size
Commission scales with revenue, and a fixed-fee platform can work out cheaper once you are large enough. The comparison to make is not fee against fee, but fee against what you would spend running tax registration, filing, fraud screening and disputes yourself.
What sellers say once they have switched
★★★★★ 4.8/5 from 10 reviews on G2 →
Vadim Finayev “We work with quite a few merchants of record, but none comes close to the support and speed of implementation of Fungies. If you want a payment partner that actually gives you the feeling they want to work with you — rather than leaving you on read for three days or randomly restricting your account — you are in the right place.”
David Elliott “I researched the options and Fungies was the best fit for functionality and customisation within a store builder you can connect to your own domain. Taking a small percentage of sales, instead of charging a subscription for every environment and plugin, is refreshing.”
Elnura Abdimanap Kyzy “The platform is user-friendly, integrates easily with APIs and webhooks, and simplifies managing digital products and subscriptions. We were up and running quickly and support has been responsive throughout. Fungies is clearly tailored to the needs of SaaS businesses.”
Francisco Magnone Rienzi “Fungies has been a great partner — fast setup, competitive pricing, and real humans providing quick answers. They are constantly rolling out new features, and I am excited to see what is next.”
Questions about starting for nothing
A shop on your own domain, under your own brand.
See your shop before you decide anything
Open the builder, pick a template, and put a product on a page. Signing up comes after you have looked at it, and the first charge comes after someone buys.
