Our take, no sugar-coating

CHOOSE SHOPIFY IF…

You sell internationally, collect by card, and need a very wide app ecosystem. Shopify remains the world reference for that.

CHOOSE DZ ECOMMERCE IF…

You sell in Algeria, in COD, with per-wilaya delivery. Everything Shopify does through 3 paid apps is native here — and payable in dinars.

Free, no bank card — judge for yourself.
