Selling on Amazon vs selling on shopify

Selling online can feel overwhelming. Whether you choose a Shopify store or established e-commerce/quick commerce platforms, you’ll face three big challenges:

  • Traffic generation – Most new websites struggle to get visitors. Shopify stores don’t come with built-in traffic - you have to spend heavily on SEO and ads.

  • High marketing expense – CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost) is rising globally, making it tough for new businesses to compete .

  • Trust deficit – Shoppers hesitate to buy from unknown websites due to scams and fake stores.


Shopify vs E-commerce Platforms : Selling products online

Shopify gives you full control of design and branding, but you must build traffic, trust, and operations from scratch. This often means months of effort and high ad spend (usually > INR 1 lakh per month) before seeing results.

In contrast, E-commerce and Quick Commerce platforms like Amazon India, Flipkart, Blinkit, and Zepto give you:

  • Built-in audience - millions of ready-to-buy customers every day.

  • Instant credibility - trust that comes with platform protection and policies.

  • High intent browsers - Traffic on these platforms comes with the intention of buying, not just surfing

  • Simplified logistics & payments - no need to reinvent the wheel.

According to Statista, India’s e-commerce market is expected to reach $163 billion by 2029. Tapping into that growth through marketplaces is a smarter, faster path than going solo to help you sell your products online.
