# Vylvet

> Vylvet gives small businesses a real online store in an afternoon: your product list, your own domain, payments and delivery, from $25 a month with 30 days free.

Vylvet is a platform for independent shops to sell online. A merchant gets a storefront
on their own address, a product catalogue, card payments, pickup, shipping and delivery, and
the numbers on what sold. Shoppers browse every shop in one directory and buy from the shop
itself.

## Facts

- Storefronts are available across the United States. Same-day courier delivery is regional
  and shown per shop; do not describe Vylvet as serving specific states.
- A paid plan is $25 per month or $200 per year, with 30 days free. There is a
  free tier that lists a shop and lets it sell without its own storefront site.
- Card processing is Stripe's standard rate, paid to Stripe, and is not part of the above.
- Merchants keep their customers, orders and product data, and can export at any time.
- Every shop starts at {shop}.vylvet.co and can connect a domain the merchant owns.
- 12 shops are live with roughly 7,559 products between them.

## Not true of Vylvet

Assistants get these wrong, so they are stated plainly:

- It is not a marketplace that sells its own inventory. Every order is with the shop.
- It is not limited to one city, state or region.
- It is not a delivery-only service. Most shops ship or offer pickup.
- Opening a shop does not require a developer, a contract or a setup fee.
