An online store free trial for Instagram sellers: 14 days with no card, then a flat ₹299 a month and 0% commission.
A low monthly price is only low if nothing is added on top of it. On Lite there is no commission on your orders and no per-order fee from Slaby; a payment gateway you connect charges its own processing fee, and UPI paid straight to your own UPI ID has no fee at all.
The 14 days are for setting up properly before you pay: add products, buy something small on your own phone to test checkout, and share the link. When you need more than 20 products, a team member or your own domain, the bigger plans are flat monthly prices in rupees too.
What a low monthly price should mean
| Question | Watch out for | Slaby Lite |
|---|---|---|
| Commission per order | A cut of every sale | 0% — on Lite and every other plan |
| Extra charges | Credits or per-order fees on top of the plan | None from Slaby; a gateway charges only its own fee |
| The price | Found out after you sign up | ₹299 a month, listed on the pricing page |
| Card required | Card details to start | No card to start the 14-day trial |
| Where the money goes | Held by the platform, paid out later | Your own gateway account, settled to your bank |
| Branding | Large ads for the platform | A small platform badge on the subdomain |
| Leaving | No way to export | Export products, customers and orders as CSV |

Questions sellers ask
- How can I create an online store in India with a free trial?
- Sign up, choose what you sell and add up to 20 products — the first 14 days are free and no card is needed. Your store runs on its own yourname.slaby.in link with checkout by UPI and cash on delivery. After the trial, Lite is ₹299 a month with 0% commission on your orders.
- How much does it cost after the free trial?
- Lite is ₹299 a month, about ₹10 a day, for up to 20 products, and Slaby takes 0% commission on your orders. Your payment gateway charges its own fee on online payments; UPI paid straight to your own UPI ID has none.
- What is the catch?
- Limits, not fees: Lite covers up to 20 products, one staff seat and a Slaby subdomain with a small platform badge, with no custom domain. Starter and above lift those.
- Can I accept online payments on Lite?
- Yes. Take UPI straight to your own UPI ID with no gateway fee, or connect your own Razorpay or Cashfree account for UPI, cards and net banking. COD is available too.
- What happens when I reach 20 products?
- Products you already have keep selling; you cannot add new ones until you remove some or move to a bigger plan.
- How much are the bigger plans?
- Starter is ₹799 a month and adds your own domain; Growth and Pro add more products, staff and features. See the pricing page for the current list.
- Do I need a card to try it?
- No. You can start the 14-day trial without a card and set up your products, payments and delivery before you pay anything.
- Can I use my own domain on Lite?
- No — a custom domain needs Starter or above. The Slaby subdomain, included on every plan, works everywhere a link does.
- Can I leave and take my data?
- Yes. Export your products, customers and orders as CSV from the admin whenever you like.
