What it really costs

Dokan pricing: what a year really costs.

Dokan is a plugin that adds sellers, storefronts and commission to WooCommerce, on a WordPress site you host. Its free version covers the basics; payouts to sellers, chat, bookings, auctions and most other marketplace features come with the paid plans. Yclas is a hosted marketplace platform: we run the servers, updates and backups. This page puts its prices in one place: the plans, what a working site costs in its first year, and what you pay extra for.
