Salloq /seɪl lɑːk/ (noun - sounds like “sale-lock”) — A system that empowers retailers to capture, secure, and complete transactions with efficiency and confidence. We provide a powerful Shopify alternative. Most features you pay extra for elsewhere are included here. We bundle powerful marketing and Point of Sale Solutions at no extra cost because the better you do, the better we do.
A platform built for growth, speed, security & everyday usability.
Both Salloq Ecommerce & POS are built on an industry-leading distributed technology framework. This not only provides inbuilt dynamism, scalability and independent adaptability, but also places security at the heart of its core so you can have confidence knowing your site will always be on. We automatically backup every site each night just in case you make a mistake. We've built our system like an airplane - redundant everything!
Retailers are ready to go from day one with all essential features expected from a modern, powerful ecommerce platform. And when you're ready to grow, expand or customize, we make it simple through easy-to-use modules and themes — no complexity required. We currently have merchant processing connections built for Stripe, Authorize.net, and Paypal. We will happily build any interfaces you require. We also have some proprietary solutions for "high-risk" merchants.
We believe pricing should be fair, transparent, and aligned with your success. Salloq charges a low monthly subscription plus a small per-transaction fee — meaning we win only when you win. Our business grows as yours does.
Perfect for new stores and small retailers.
For established brands scaling up.
Built for high-volume merchants.
With Salloq, you're not paying for unused features, endless plugins, or unpredictable billing. Instead, you get a powerful platform, upgrades for life, and a partner who grows only when you grow. We succeed together — that's the way it should be.
Choosing the right commerce platform matters. Here’s how Salloq stacks up against Shopify, BigCommerce, and WooCommerce for real-world retail businesses looking for unified online + in-store selling without plugin chaos.
| Feature / Category | Salloq | Shopify | BigCommerce | WooCommerce |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Base Monthly Cost | From $29.95 | $39–$399 + apps | $39–$299 + apps | Free core + hosting + plugins |
| Transaction Model | Small % fee — aligned incentives | 2.4–2.9% + 30¢ | 2.5%–2.9% + 30¢ | Depends on gateway |
| POS Integration | Built-in | Requires Shopify POS subscription | Limited POS options via 3rd-party | 3rd-party plugins required |
| Loyalty & Rewards | Included | Paid app | Plugin or integration required | Multiple plugins required |
| Subscriptions | Included | Requires app (ReCharge etc.) | App required | Plugin required |
| Gift Cards + Store Credit | Included | Higher plan or app | App or setting required | Plugin required |
| Inventory Sync (POS + Online) | Unified in Core | Works but requires POS plan | Varies by integration | Challenging / plugin-based |
| Themes + Customization | Flexible modules + simple | Large theme market (Dev required for deep edits) | Similar to Shopify | Highly flexible, dev-heavy |
| Total Cost of Ownership | Low — most features built-in | Medium/High due to apps | Medium/High with add-ons | Variable — plugins/maintenance/hosting |
| Best For | Growing retailers with POS | New stores with dev budget | Mid-market stores | Developers & DIY shops |
Best for retailers who want ecommerce + POS in one place without app overload. Aligned pricing model.
Powerful ecosystem but app-dependent and additional cost for POS, subscriptions, loyalty, etc.
Good ecommerce core but advanced features still rely on add-ons. Less POS focus.
Highly customizable, plugin-heavy, self-managed hosting & updates. Great for developers.
We grow when you grow. That's the way commerce platforms should work.
