Free forever plan to sell and scale

Ecwid's free plan lets you experience the platform, where you can upgrade as you grow. The free plan includes selling up to 5 products, a branded website, shipping, and payment methods.

Weebly's free plan limits branding with ads and a Weebly domain name. Many templates are exclusive to paid plans.

Advanced customization options to reflect your brand

Ecwid provides customizable templates and themed content blocks ideal for any business.

Weebly offers basic templates with fixed content blocks and layouts, making it challenging to create a distinctive, standout store.

Continuous innovation that scales with you

Ecwid is focused on innovation. Every month, new features are released to better serve customers.

Weebly is now hosted by Square, and is not being updated frequently. Eventually, all weebly users will have to migrate to Square Online.

Great support, whenever you need it

Ecwid is your partner in  growth. If you have any questions, you can contact support by phone, live chat, email, 24/7. And, you can find all the info you need on our Help Center and Ecwid Academy.

Weebly offers live chat, email, and phone support, and a Square Help Center — without any tutorial videos.

Built for growing teams

Ecwid offers your team custom staff accounts where you can provide different permissions to members of your team, e.g. marketing can only access ads and reports.

With Weebly, everyone has the same access to the store, which is not suitable for a large team, and error-prone.

Ecommerce to sell anywhere, literally

With Ecwid, you can sell on social media, marketplaces, on mobile, in person, AND — you can add your Ecwid shopping cart to any website.

With Weebly, you can also sell on socials (only Facebook and Instagram), marketplaces, mobile, in person.

Weebly is now Square online

If you purchase a Weebly subscription now, you will be redirected to Square Online. Compare Ecwid to Square Online below.
