Yo!Kart alternative

A Yo!Kart alternative without a $2,000 licence up front.

Yo!Kart, by FATbit, sells multi-vendor marketplace software for a one-time licence, with no recurring or transaction fees, free installation and a year of support for technical fixes. Owners look elsewhere when the up-front price, the apps and the hosting are a lot to commit before the marketplace has its first sale. Here are the options and what each costs in year one. [1]
