The Verdict
Sellfy is built for creators and artists, with a focus on digital-products and subscriptions. WooCommerce targets wordpress users and small businesses and leads with product-management and payment-gateways.
On pricing, WooCommerce is the clear winner for budget-conscious users — starting at $0/mo compared to $29/mo for Sellfy. That $29/mo difference adds up quickly for growing teams.
