Two plans.
Both published.
Gax is built, hosted and run by Revitt. You pay a monthly price to run your shop, and a one-off price to move it across or build it. Pick the plan that fits your shop today.
- Small shop
- £19.99a month + VAT£299 + VAT to set up
- Growing shop
- £99a month + VAT£999 + VAT to set up
No Gax transaction fee on either plan. Card processing and other subscriptions are paid to those providers. Fair use of hosting and data applies. The plans differ in more than hosting: the small shop plan has one payment connection, and the growing shop plan has more than one plus one additional custom integration.

What you pay over a year.
Small shop: £239.88 + VAT a year in monthly payments. With setup, the first year is £538.88 + VAT.
Growing shop: £1,188 + VAT a year in monthly payments. With setup, the first year is £2,187 + VAT.
These totals cover Gax only. Payment processing and other providers’ charges are separate.
Which plan fits your shop?
Choose by what your shop needs, rather than how much it sells. Small shop suits a standard shop you fill with your own products, using Stripe or Worldpay. Growing shop adds more payment providers, the planned Epos Now connection and one agreed custom integration. Tell us what you need →
What setup covers.
Small shop — £299 + VAT. A standard shop layout with your logo and colours, standard payment and delivery settings, and a handover. You add your products, photos and text. Historical customer or order migration, data cleanup and custom integrations are not included.
Growing shop — £999 + VAT. Standard setup plus the migration and one additional custom integration we agree in writing before work starts. We list what moves and what the connection does, so neither of us is guessing. It is not an unlimited rebuild or data-entry service.
Bespoke designs, redesigns, product data work and further changes are quoted before work starts. You approve the written setup scope and any extra cost first.
What if I need changes or help?
Fixing a fault in Gax itself is included in your monthly service. New features, extra connections, design changes and product data work are quoted before we start. Ask us what you need and we will explain what is covered.
What counts as the included custom integration?
The growing shop plan includes one additional connection to another service. Before we build it, we agree the service, what it does, what data moves, how you check it works, third-party fees and the ongoing maintenance included. Further integrations, new requirements or changes made by another provider may need a separate quote, agreed before work. Faults in Gax itself remain included.
The planned Epos Now connection through Slynk is separate from this allowance. It is in development and unavailable until verified. Slynk charges its own subscription.
Each plan covers what its own list says, and the lists are not the same. Neither plan charges per product or per order, and Gax takes no per-order, per-sale or percentage fee. The only limit on the monthly price is fair use of hosting and data.
Prices are in pounds sterling and exclude VAT. VAT is added to each invoice.

Answer three short questions about your shop and we will suggest the plan your answers need, then say why. Nothing is chosen for you.

When does Gax cost less?
Until you answer the questions above, this is an illustration on the small shop plan. Choose a Gax plan and compare running costs and first-year totals. Card fees are included when your payment provider’s rate is known. Shopify is paid monthly here; annual billing can cost less. Figures exclude VAT.

Gax with Stripe saves £780.12 a year
That’s £65.01 a month. First year: Gax with Stripe £2,818.88 including setup; Shopify Payments on Basic £3,300.
Gax with Stripe costs less a year at any sales level on these figures.
Card processing is charged by your payment provider. We confirm their rate with you before you move, so the totals above are Gax’s prices only.
Two of the four rows are shown for comparison only: Shopify does not sell Stripe alongside its own payments in the UK, and Worldpay’s rate is not yet confirmed.

Rates and assumptions
Card fees are included on every row: Stripe’s UK standard-card rate of 1.5% + 20p and Shopify Payments’ own rate. Shopify charges its 2% third-party fee when you use your own provider, as the reference row shows. Payment processing fees are your provider’s, not Gax’s. Worldpay’s rate is not confirmed, so its row stays blank.
Shopify doesn’t offer Stripe as a third-party payment provider in Shopify Payments countries, the UK included, so “Shopify with your Stripe” is shown for comparison only: it isn’t a setup you can buy today. Shopify: payment gateway availability, checked 12 November 2026.
Platform and card costs only; features and service differ. Shopify plans are priced on monthly billing, and paying for a year up front can be lower: Basic is £19 a month billed yearly against £25 billed monthly (Shopify UK pricing, checked 12 November 2026). Plus is a starting price and depends on its contract term. Shopify setup costs are excluded because they vary. Gax’s £299 + VAT setup is inside its first-year figure; the small shop’s £239.88 + VAT a year platform cost is the same every year after, before card fees. The growing shop plan (£99 a month + VAT, £999 + VAT setup) is not part of this comparison. All prices exclude VAT. Gax inclusions and fair-use terms.
Shopify plan prices, third-party transaction fees and Shopify Payments rates: Shopify UK pricing. Shopify and Stripe figures checked 12 November 2026. Worldpay’s UK online card rate is not published, so we confirm it with you before you move.
How that compares with Shopify.
Shopify Basic in the UK is £25 a month if you pay monthly, or £19 a month if you pay for a year up front. Shopify UK pricing, checked 12 November 2026. The small shop plan here is £19.99 a month + VAT, which is less than Basic billed monthly.
That is a monthly subscription comparison only. Gax also charges a one-off setup, so look at your first year as well as the month. Compare a year of costs →
You deal with the people who build it.
Gax is our own software. Revitt builds it, hosts it and runs it. We set up your shop on it, so you deal with the founder and the team who wrote it, not account managers.
Payment fees.
Gax takes no cut of your sales. Card processing is charged by your payment provider, not by us. Each provider also sets its own rules on which businesses it accepts, so we check yours against your products and markets before you move. We confirm that your payment account can connect before you commit to setup; Worldpay availability and fees must be confirmed first. How payment choice works →
Till systems (EPOS) will connect through Slynk. That connection is in development and not available yet, and Slynk charges its own subscription, as it does with WooCommerce today. Slynk’s subscription fee is not included in either Gax price. Epos Now and your payment provider charge under their own terms. Our planned EPOS connections →
Fair use.
Fair use of hosting and data is the only limit on the monthly price. There is no per-product, per-order or per-sale charge on top of it. Payment connections and custom integrations are as set out in your plan’s list above.
What normal use looks like. Your shop serving its customers, your staff and the connections you have set up: browsing, baskets, checkout, orders, admin work and the requests behind them.
If your shop goes well beyond that. Each plan comes with a fair-use amount of hosting and data. If unusual outgoing data or hosting use goes over it, we charge that use at cost, with nothing added on top.
We tell you first. You hear from us before anything extra is billed.
What you pay for today: Shopify and WooCommerce
On Shopify. Use your own payment provider instead of Shopify Payments and Shopify adds a third-party transaction fee: 2% on Basic, 1% on Grow, 0.6% on Advanced and 0.2% on Plus, monthly billing, checked 11 November 2026. Shopify UK pricing
On Gax. No Gax transaction fee, whichever supported payment provider you use. Processing fees are your payment provider’s charge, not ours.
On WooCommerce. Your host has to meet current PHP, MySQL and memory requirements, and WordPress, your theme and every plugin update on their own schedules. On Gax, hosting and platform updates are part of your monthly price. WooCommerce server requirements, checked 7 November 2026.
