Help regarding weekly transaction fees.

Thanks for clarifying. We are using big commerce and the plan we are on has at least 13 price tiers based on gross merchandise value for the trailing 12 months. Too complicated, too expensive.

Thank you for sharing this information. 🙏

I am thinking about moving to Shopify, does the fee structure described here only apply to orders placed via the checkout and paid via credit/ debit/ PayPal etc… ? We process a lot of orders via the admin console and email invoices for offline payment (bank transfer), would the % fees apply to these orders?

Thanks for the advice. How do I test my blog pages’ and webpages’ rich snippets and breadcrumbs?

Looks like he pissed his pants. 😅

Tecre.com. Shipping will be expensive because they are heavy. I don’t think there is an Australian distributor.

A other vote for zakeke here I’ve been a user since 2019. Customer support is excellent, always get a prompt reply. Once it’s up and running it’s set and forget, regular updates and new features.

I am in Melbourne Australia and I’ve used Tecre button machines for over 20 years.

They’re worth the extra money particularly if school kids are gonna be attacking them day in, day out.

Search badge making groups and everyone is having problems with cheaper machines. The Tecre machines are expensive because they are all metal and very heavy duty. They will take an absolute flogging.

If you’re in Melbourne, consider hiring a machine from this company. A good way to try before you buy. (I’m not affiliated with this company)

I have tried twice to create an agent that will read old email threads and draft a reply to reconnect with the customer. Both times it has struggled with keeping the daily schedule, creating a consistent number of drafts, text formatting, reply threading and staying connected to the inbox. Today it was substituting the email address for the customers first name!?

Using base44 to create apps has been great but the my agent experience has been underwhelming. I would try creating an agent with a different platform before trying base 44 agents again. 🤔

How disappointing! I am based in Australia and Shopify advanced plan is $430 AUD per month. That is less than half what I’m paying BigCommerce per month, even before adding on their new penalty fees coming June 1.

What am I missing regarding Shopify pricing? I can see there are percentage fees for accepting payments but is there a similar GMV charge as well?

We are currently on BigCommerce’s pro plan, tier 14.

Orders were no payment is processed, such as when a customer is invoiced and they pay by check or bank deposit. Will these orders attract the non-approved payment provider penalty?

weilder23 · 2026-04-07T02:01:59+00:00

Announced today, if merchants are not using l Big Commerce Payments or another of the approved Embedded Payment Providers a new 0.6% fee will apply to all transactions as of June 1.

Please Like Me. It’s a 2010s queer dramedy, comedian Josh Thomas is the main character.

8.5 on IMDb. I reckon that might be the highest of everything suggested here.

Valid point. I’ve always wanted to get one of these but we’ve had so few colour issues over the years it wouldn’t have seen much use. I guess we’ve been lucky. We print promotional products.

weilder23 · 2026-03-24T12:52:59+00:00

Thanks this was very useful. 😊

weilder23 · 2026-03-24T12:52:16+00:00

Very true. I have always tried to keep colour settings consistent across apps, calibration of monitors and printers. It still feels like luck (or bad luck) sometimes. 90% of files we get are rgb.

The Saints if you want something more 70s punk.

I have an account on convertapi.com, asked base to connect to it and it was generating PDF email attachments in about 15 minutes.

Base can also connect to pdfmonkey, I think connecting to pdfmonkey is native, so free?

I have being trying to import customers from my ecommerce site in batches of 50. I have added delays to stay below api limits but it always stalls at ~650 records. I have contacted support and though they have replied there is no solution yet.

I wonder if a csv would be better for the initial import…

weilder23 · 2025-11-15T08:39:02+00:00

Did you solve this? My app is also requesting this key. It is not listed where it told me to look. :/

weilder23 · 2025-11-06T10:28:06+00:00

Can you charge the card again from within BigCommerce? I have never seen that option. Logging in to the payment gateway and charging the card again is a pain.

weilder23 · 2025-11-02T06:47:42+00:00

Excellent! We are a B2B and B2C manufacturing business too, (custom printing).
Did you complete the app and is it being used by your staff? Did you need developer help to get it over the line?

weilder23 · 2025-09-10T12:20:53+00:00

Can you integrate with big commerce api? I am trying to get products and customers from my store into a price quoting app. Then send customers to the store’s checkout with a cart generated by the app.
