PrestaShop - an open-source e‑commerce platform with full code control
PrestaShop is one of the most popular e‑commerce platforms in the world, powering over 250,000 online stores. It's an open-source solution built on PHP and MySQL, which means zero licensing fees, full code ownership and the freedom to extend your store however you need.
In June 2025, PrestaShop 9 was released - the biggest update in the platform's history. A new API built on Symfony 6.4, the Hummingbird theme optimized for mobile and Core Web Vitals, PHP 8.4 support and built-in SEO tools (configurable URLs, improved canonicals, automatic redirects). This makes PrestaShop 9 ready for the demands of e‑commerce in 2026 and beyond.
Key advantages of PrestaShop
No licensing fees or commissions
PrestaShop is free. You only pay for hosting, implementation and optional premium modules. Zero sales commissions - unlike Shopify, where fees grow with your revenue.
Full code ownership
The store's code belongs to you. You can modify it, extend it, host it anywhere. No vendor lock‑in - you can switch agencies or build an in‑house team at any time.
Flexibility and scalability
From a store with 50 products to a catalog with 100,000+ SKUs. PrestaShop handles B2C, B2B, multistore and cross‑border. Extend it with any functionality through modules and custom code.
Rich module ecosystem
Over 5,000 modules on the official marketplace and thousands of community solutions. Integrations with payment gateways, shipping providers, ERPs, analytics tools and marketing platforms - ready-made or custom-built.
SEO from the ground up
PrestaShop 9 offers advanced SEO tools: configurable URLs without numeric IDs, improved canonical tags, automatic 301 redirects and an optimized robots.txt. Combined with the Hummingbird theme - a solid foundation for search visibility.
Strong community and long-term support
A global developer community, regular security updates and certified partners. PrestaShop 9 is built on Symfony 6.4 LTS with support through 2027.
