What is StoreHippo?

StoreHippo is a hosted e-commerce platform from Hippo Innovations, based at Spaze iTech Park on Sohna Road in Gurugram. Rajiv Kumar (CEO) and Kriti Aggarwal (CPO) launched it in 2013. It is aimed at brands that have outgrown a simple storefront builder and need B2B pricing, multiple sellers, several sub-stores or a hyperlocal delivery setup on one backend. The homepage shows logos including Amul, Hero, Syngenta, Dow, OYO and Treebo, and claims over $500M in GMV processed across 20+ countries.

Its strength is breadth. StoreHippo claims 300+ built-in features and 150+ integrations, and its integrations page lists Indian payment and logistics names a D2C or distributor business will recognise: Razorpay, PayU, CCAvenue, Paytm and Pine Labs, plus Shiprocket, Delhivery, Blue Dart, DTDC, Xpressbees and Shadowfax. The ERP list covers Unicommerce, Logic ERP, Vinculum and EasyEcom. On the Platinum plan you also get branded Android and iOS buyer apps from the same backend, and there is an affiliate buyer app for ONDC.

The weak spot is cost for small sellers. Public prices start at Rs 15,000 a month for Business, plus a 1% fee on each order. Enterprise is Rs 30,000 a month with a 0.5% fee, and Platinum starts at Rs 1,20,000 a month on a one-year minimum. All prices exclude GST. Every plan also caps online sales volume and charges extra above that cap, but the amounts are not published. If you sell under a few lakh rupees a month and need only a B2C catalogue, Shopify, Dukaan or WooCommerce will cost far less.

Buying works on prepaid terms. You get 10% off for an annual term and 20% off for two years paid upfront, and you can change plans only when the current term ends. Refunds are not given for unused time if you cancel. The pricing page does not mention a free trial, so ask sales for a demo store before you commit. Setup help and migration of products, website and app are included, while custom development is billed separately on retainer.

What works well

  • +Built-in B2B features, multi-pricing, multi-seller and multi-store from the Enterprise plan upwards
  • +Long list of Indian gateways including Razorpay, PayU, CCAvenue, Paytm and Pine Labs
  • +Integrates with Shiprocket, Delhivery, Blue Dart, DTDC, Xpressbees and hyperlocal options such as Shadowfax
  • +Hosting, SSL and bandwidth are included with no bandwidth fees, according to the pricing FAQ
  • +Platinum includes branded Android and iOS buyer apps built from the same backend
  • +Certified to PCI DSS v3.2.1, and the site also lists ISO and SOC certifications
  • +Lets you put the subscription on hold for up to three months once per term

What to watch out for

  • −Entry price of Rs 15,000 a month plus GST is steep for small Indian D2C sellers
  • −Per-order fees of 1% (Business) and 0.5% (Enterprise) apply on top of the subscription
  • −Every plan has an online sales volume cap, but the overage charges are not published
  • −No free trial is mentioned on the pricing page, and unused subscription time is not refunded
  • −Plan upgrades or downgrades only take effect after the current billing term ends
  • −iOS app and a dedicated account manager are reserved for the Platinum plan at Rs 1.2 lakh a month

Best suited for: Indian manufacturers and distributors that need B2B pricing and a B2C store on one backend · Brands launching a multi-vendor marketplace or hyperlocal delivery model · Enterprises that want branded mobile apps without a separate app development project · Businesses already using Unicommerce, Vinculum or EasyEcom for order and warehouse operations

Business adds a 1% fee per order and Enterprise adds 0.5%. Each plan also has an online sales volume cap, and sales above it incur an extra charge that StoreHippo does not publish.

Is GST included in StoreHippo pricing?+

No. StoreHippo's pricing page states that all listed plans are exclusive of taxes, so an Indian business should add 18% GST to the monthly fee. On the Business plan that makes Rs 15,000 roughly Rs 17,700 a month before per-order fees. Paying a year upfront gives 10% off, and paying two years upfront gives 20% off.

Does StoreHippo have a free plan or free trial?+

StoreHippo has no free plan, and its current pricing page does not mention a free trial. Subscriptions are prepaid, and the cancellation policy gives no refund for unused time.

StoreHippo vs Shopify: which is better for an Indian business?+

StoreHippo includes B2B pricing, multi-vendor and multi-store features, hyperlocal delivery tools and branded apps in its Enterprise and Platinum plans. On Shopify you would usually add these through paid apps. Shopify is much cheaper to start with, has a huge app ecosystem and offers a free trial, so most small B2C stores will find it the more practical choice.

Does StoreHippo provide a mobile app for my store?+

Yes. StoreHippo builds branded Android and iOS buyer apps with a no-code builder, synced in real time with the web store, plus a seller app and a PWA storefront. Android is included from the Enterprise plan at Rs 30,000 a month, and iOS is listed only on the Platinum plan. There is also an affiliate buyer app for ONDC.

StoreHippo includes guided setup and migration of products, website and app on its plans, but it does not publish a standard go-live timeline. Developer support covers APIs, front end and webhooks through up to three screen-share calls a month. Custom development is billed separately on retainer, so agree on scope and timelines with sales before you sign.

Does StoreHippo integrate with Tally?+

StoreHippo's integrations page does not list Tally. For accounting it names QuickBooks and Xero, and for ERP it names Unicommerce, Logic ERP, Vinculum and EasyEcom. If your accounts run on Tally, ask StoreHippo whether a connector or a custom API job is available, and budget for possible custom-development charges.
