$29/moShop Studio & public shop
US Core as advertised when billed annually. Squarespace Commerce is a similar alternative. Not stacked on Wix.
One login. The rest of the stack can go.
Stop paying for a pile of apps that still don’t talk to each other.
A branded shop, custom orders, invoices, leftover bags, raffles, labels, email. Bakers duct-tape this together with Wix, Jotform, Mailchimp, Canva, and a dozen more. Loafaly is the one workspace. Typical US starting prices; vendors change them.

The math
The usual stack vs one Loafaly Pro.
Hero total is the tools most bakeries subscribe to once they outgrow Google Forms: website, order form, email, design, and cottage ingredient lists. Everything else on this page is extra logins. Some free, some a percent of every order.
Typical starter stack
$101/mo
Wix $29/moJotform $39/moMailchimp $13/moCanva $15/moQuickly Cottage $5/mo
Loafaly Pro
$13.99/mo
One loginShop · orders · kitchen · marketing
About $87/mo less than that starter stack. Before commission apps.
If you also paid the flat SaaS on this page: about $377.25/mo vs Loafaly Pro.
List prices as of August 2026 (US, starting at). Always verify on the vendor’s site.
Feature by feature
What we replace. And what it usually costs.
Named programs are typical alternatives, not the only ones. Commission tools stay off the dollar total: we replace their channel and their cut on your shop, not their consumer marketplace.

Replaces

They do not recreate Too Good To Go, Faire, ezCater, or Hotplate’s consumer apps.
