The Shopping Master alternative to Shopify

Shopify is a great platform, but its lower plans charge an extra transaction fee unless you use Shopify Payments, and several essentials are paid apps. Shopping Master gives you the core store-building tools with no per-sale commission and a free plan — and you can move your catalog over with a one-click CSV import (Shopify format, with variants).
