Everything WooCommerce needs eight plugins for.
Reviews, upsells, abandoned baskets, delivery slots, trade pricing and a page builder are part of Taberno, not extensions you buy and maintain. We host it, patch it and back it up. Nothing to update on a Sunday, and no cut of your sales.
Free for 7 days. No card needed to start.
Grand Prix Art sells original motorsport prints on Taberno.
Open in a few minutes
Choose a name and your shop is running, with a secure address you can send people to straight away. Nothing to install and nothing to configure.
Your own domain
Point your domain at us and the shop moves across, with the certificate handled for you. The address we give you carries on working too.
Backed up every night
Your products, orders and customers are copied every night while the shop stays open. Kept for a week, or a month with an off-site copy on Growth.
Coming from WooCommerce
Free until you need it to do anything
WooCommerce itself costs nothing. Then reviews are an extension, and so are upsells, abandoned baskets, delivery dates, wholesale pricing and decent shipping rules. Each one renews annually, and each one is another thing that can break.
Add the page builder, the caching plugin, the security plugin and the SMTP plugin you need before order emails stop going to junk, and the free platform has a bill and a maintenance schedule.
Taberno is one subscription with all of that inside it. One vendor, one thing to update, and nobody to point at when something goes wrong.
| Comparison | Taberno | WooCommerce |
|---|---|---|
| Reviews, upsells, abandoned baskets | Included | An extension each, renewing yearly |
| Order emails that reach the inbox | Set up and working | SMTP plugin, mail provider, DNS records |
| Editing your live storefront | Draft, preview, publish, discard | Changes are live when you save |
| Updates | We apply them, in batches, checked | Core plus every plugin, on your head |
| When checkout breaks | One vendor to call | Core, plugin author, host, theme |
| Security patching | Ours to do | Yours, across everything installed |
| Cut of every sale | None | None |
| Licence | MIT, open source | GPL, open source |
Two rows where WooCommerce is level with us, kept in on purpose. It takes no percentage either, and it is open source too. The longer comparison, including what Woo does better.
Page builder
Build any page and watch it as you build
Drag sections into place and your real storefront renders beside you as you work. No theme code, no deploy step, no waiting to see how it looks.
Sections
live preview
Nothing goes live by accident
Edits save as a private draft. Your shop keeps showing the published version until you press Publish, and Discard puts it back.
Build once, reuse everywhere
Save a section you like and drop it into any other page. Change it once and every page using it updates.
Style every product page at once
Lay out one product page and the rest follow. You are not rebuilding the same page for every item you sell.
Two themes, or bring your own
Start from a theme and change what you want. If you write CSS, you have the whole storefront to work with.
What's included
Everything a real shop needs, on both plans
Not a starter tier with the useful parts removed. The list below is what you get on the cheaper plan as well as the dearer one.
Email that arrives
Order confirmations, dispatch notices and password resets, sent for you from a properly configured domain. Nothing to set up.
Every way customers pay
Cards through your own Stripe account, PayPal, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Takings land in your bank, not ours.
Shipping, tax and digital goods
Rates by weight, price or country. VAT handled properly. Downloads delivered automatically after payment.
Delivery slots and local pickup
Let customers choose a date, or collect in person. Useful if you sell food, flowers or anything you make to order.
Pre-orders and launch dates
Take money before stock lands, or hold a product back until a date and time you set.
Trade pricing and invoicing
Wholesale prices for accounts you approve, with invoices and payment terms if you sell to businesses as well as the public.
Search that finds things
Full-text search across products and pages, with filters by price, option and availability.
Know what's selling
Revenue, orders and best sellers over any period, without connecting anything or paying for a dashboard.
Customer accounts
Saved addresses, order history and reordering. Guests can still check out without signing up for anything.
Fulfilment, tracking and refunds
Mark orders as sent, add tracking numbers, and refund in part or in full without leaving the admin.
Menus in your own words
Build the navigation you want, including mega menus with images, rather than the one a theme decided on.
Staff accounts
Bring in the people who help you run it, each with their own login and only the access they need.
Selling more
The nine things on your renewals list
On WooCommerce each of these is an extension you bought, licensed and now have to keep current. Here they are part of the shop, on both plans, updated when everything else is.
Reviews that build trust
Collect reviews after delivery, show ratings on product pages, and reply in public when someone has a point.
Bigger baskets
Suggest related products, bundle things that sell together, and offer an upgrade at the moment someone is deciding.
Promotions without a code
Run a sale, buy-one-get-one, or free delivery over a threshold, applied automatically at checkout.
Bring shoppers back
Email people who left something in their basket, and tell customers when an item they wanted is in stock again.
Say something site-wide
Announcement bars for delivery cut-offs, sales and holidays, scheduled to appear and disappear on their own.
Never oversell
Stock counts down as orders come in, with low-stock warnings and back-in-stock handling when it runs out.
A blog that brings traffic
Write posts with the same page builder, and link products into them so what you write actually sells something.
Works with the ads you run
Google, Meta and TikTok tracking, plus a product feed, so campaigns report properly.
Bring your WooCommerce shop across
Products, variants, images, customers and orders come over, so you open with your catalogue and your history rather than an empty shop.
Pricing
Two plans. Every feature on both.
The difference is how much you are storing and how many people are helping you run it. We take no percentage of anything you sell. Change plan or cancel whenever you like.
Starter
$39 / month
Everything you need to open a shop.
Growth
Most shops$99 / month
For shops that are getting busy.
Both plans include the page builder, the growth features and everything in the list above. Payments go through your own Stripe or PayPal account, so we never touch your money and never take a cut of it.
No lock-in
Your shop is yours to take
Taberno itself is open source and free to run on your own machine. When you host with us, you are paying for the hosting rather than for permission to use the software.
Export your shop whenever you want and run it somewhere else the same afternoon. We would rather earn the subscription than rely on it being hard to leave. How that works
Name your shop and go
Pick an address and your shop is up while you are still deciding what to sell first. Bring your own domain across whenever you are ready.
Free for 7 days, and no card to start. Cancel any time.
