Hi there fellow Unbouncians,

I have an idea and wanted to hear some opinions on it. I was thinking to build a 10-20 products eCommerce using only Unbounce. Do you think it would be possible? If not, why not?

I’m looking to get all possible opinions from you guys, don’t be afraid 🙂

Thanks in advance

FWIW, you wouldn’t be able to do it entirely in Unbounce. eComm gets pretty complex, and out-of-the-box solutions are your friend. (Noting you don’t already know 🙂.) You’d still need a payment gateway, order management, etc., and cobbling that together would suck. The Shopifys of the world are built for that – turnkey.

Now, Unbounce can be a tremendous front end for eCommerce, particularly on the CRO side. I’d much rather point my ads to an Unbounce landing page with Smart Traffic turned on than a basic Shopify page. But I wouldn’t build an entire store there, even if you could. Wouldn’t be expandable in any way.

Stripe and ECWID can do it. I did it using these two platforms and Unbounce and it works great. I cannot stand Shopify. What you think costs you $50 per month can end up costing you $1500 per month with how they constantly want to nickel and dime you to death for everything.

Just my 2 cents but another simple option would be Unbounce + Gumtree. The Gumtree product handles simple ecommerce (orders, checkout, payments) really well, especially for basic download/access style products.

With Unbounce as your landing page I think it would work a treat!

Hi, this looks great!
Could I ask what the checkout is you’re using?
I was surprised to see, after you click buy now that the pop up looks great and loads quickly.
Thanks, Lee, fellow unbouncer!

I personally use an Unbounce landing page + smart traffic > then shopify product page (debutify is a great theme).

It is ECWID embedded vis custom HTML. Very simple and ECWID support is awesome.

Amazing solution, thanks @clnorris75

Why did you decide to use this particular platform? Others are much easier to use. If you are looking for a platform for business development, it should be as clear and easy to use as possible. You should immediately understand how and what works in it so that no additional questions arise later, after which you will need to find additional specialists. So if you have been looking for such a platform for a long time, you can look closely at https://www.atwix.com/magento-adobe-commerce-vs-shopify/. For me personally, it was quite convenient and easy to use. Is there anyone here who has already used it?

You can create a reasonably good-looking and successful landing page rather quickly. I used it for approximately six months and liked it. Due to the versatility and the fact that Unbounce was too pricey for my needs at the time, I eventually switched to only altering templates. Deffo recommends it to anyone who wants to launch a significant number of landing pages quickly and easily. It provides helpful analytics, conversion tracking, and A/B testing options for a Transform Agency. The support staff was pleasant and helped me with all of my problems.
