Frequently Asked Questions: Vyop vs Shopify

Why is Vyop a better choice than Shopify POS for Indian retailers?

Shopify charges minimum $39/month (₹3,200/mo) for the basic plan, and $89/month per location for Shopify POS Pro. Adding payment gateway fees, third-party GST plugins, and currency conversion makes it cost over ₹80,000 to ₹1,50,000 every year. Vyop gives you both an in-store camera barcode POS and a 0% commission online storefront (with customer spin-wheel rewards) starting free, with complete Pro cloud sync at just ₹999/year — saving you ₹50,000+ annually.

Does Vyop include an online store like Shopify?

Yes! Every Vyop user gets their own dedicated online storefront link (e.g., vyop.shop/yourbusiness) where customers can browse your product catalog, spin the reward wheel for discount coupons, and place orders directly on WhatsApp with zero commission fees.

Can Shopify POS handle fast counter billing with voice?

No. Shopify POS has no voice AI capabilities. To create an order, cashiers must manually tap through iPad screens or search text fields. Vyop allows shopkeepers to speak naturally in Hindi or English (e.g., 'Teen shirt size L aur do jeans') to generate bills in 5 seconds.

How does payment collection compare between Vyop and Shopify?

Shopify charges 0.5% to 2% transaction fees unless you use their proprietary gateway, plus standard Indian gateway charges. Vyop generates dynamic UPI QR codes directly on invoices, depositing 100% of customer payments directly into your bank account with 0% commission.
