FromEtsy vs agencies, freelancers and import apps

October 7, 2026 · 6 min read
There are four ways to turn an Etsy shop into a store of your own. Here is how they compare, based on what each provider says on its own website in October 2026.
| FromEtsy | Agency | Freelancer | Import app | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Price | 99 € once | On quote | ≈ 100–500 € | Free – 80 € |
| Ready in | 24 hours | 2–8 weeks | ≈ 2 weeks | Minutes |
| See your store before paying | Yes | No | No | No |
| Design and pages made for you | Yes | Yes | Yes | No |
| Shipping, returns and legal pages | Yes | Often | Sometimes | No |
| Own domain name | + 5 €, first year | Extra | Extra | Do it yourself |
Migration agencies
Agencies like Shero Commerce, Dynamic Dreamz and Folio3 build a complete Shopify store: design, pages, product migration, and often SEO, email marketing and advertising plans. Their work can be excellent, but it is priced on quote after a discovery call, and they say a project takes from one to eight weeks. They are made for bigger shops: Shero's Etsy page talks to sellers above 10,000 USD of yearly sales, and Folio3 sends small catalogues to import apps.
Freelancers
On Fiverr or Contra you find freelancers who build a Shopify store, for example from 300 USD in about two weeks. Quality varies a lot, you have to brief them, and you pay before you see anything.
Import apps
Shopify's own Etsy import is free, and apps like LitExtension start around 29 USD. They copy your products, sometimes your reviews and pages. They don't design anything: you still have to choose and set up a theme, write your pages, configure shipping and get ready for Google Shopping yourself.
FromEtsy
We build the whole store from your Etsy shop: all your products with their photos and variants, a design made for what you sell, your shipping, returns, About, Contact and legal pages, ready for Google Shopping. It is ready within 24 hours, you see it before you pay, and it costs 99 € once. The first 120 days of Shopify are free, and your own domain name is 5 € more with the first year paid.
Which one is right for you?
- A large brand with a big budget and a team: an agency
- You want to do everything yourself and have the time: an import app
- You are a maker who wants a finished store fast, for a small fixed price: FromEtsy
