Hello and good time.
We’ve taken on a project for an e-commerce website, and the plan we purchased is a CMS. Now we’re facing a challenge: we can’t add more than a certain number of products, and it says we need to update the plan.
Does updating mean we have to purchase the e-commerce plan?
If the answer is yes, can we buy a one-month plan to finish the project? Will there be any issues for the client’s site if the one-month plan expires? I’m planning to transfer it to the client’s own hosting.
When you have a hosting plan on a site, the plan determines the limits of that site.
So if you’ve exceeded the limits on what you’re using you’ll need to increase them.
If you’re using e-commerce features, you will need an e-commerce plan for the site to be functional. During the build, you could do month-to-month to finish the project- then when you transfer the site you’ll need to establish that same level of e-commerce plan to have the features you’re wanting.
Another option is to avoid e-com and instead use a solution like Foxy or Ecwid or paypal buy now buttons with a CMS plan.
with shopify buy buttons its easy-peasy.
Your client can choose a cheaper plan with better options on webflow
The big minus is to pay shopify… but than you have the best and the easiest solution
