Figures show the transaction fee on total DtC sales at Corksy's entry rate of 1.25%, on top of each platform's monthly fee. Corksy's rate eases at higher revenue tiers, so savings at larger volumes will be smaller; both exclude card-processing fees. Corksy's plans and rates change, so check corksy.io/pricing before relying on these. Correct as of June 2026.
“Vi skiftede fra WooCommerce til en skræddersyet løsning drevet af Marzipan. Det er en leg at administrere vores ordrer, og fleksibiliteten i subscriptions-API'et har gjort det muligt for os at forbedre vores old vine adoptions-tilbud.”
“Marzipan er utroligt nemt at bruge og ekstremt fleksibelt og konfigurerbart. Det gør tilbagevendende abonnementsvinklubber meget nemmere end alle andre systemer, jeg har brugt, og håndterer stort set alt, hvad vi har kastet efter det.”
