If you are comparing Dukaan alternatives, the real question is not just price. It is: how do your customers actually buy? For many Indian small businesses, the answer is still WhatsApp plus UPI. Storzu is built around that behaviour.
When Storzu is a good Dukaan alternative
- You sell through WhatsApp and want orders to arrive there.
- You want customers to pay you directly by UPI, without platform commission.
- You want a free webstore link and QR code you can share offline.
- You sell to regional-language customers and want Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Gujarati, Marathi, or Bengali storefronts.
- You care about visual themes for boutiques, home food, jewellery, classes, or services.
