Tech Stack Behind SnapBuy Lite
Built on the same modern stack as the full SnapBuy, so it is fast, secure and easy to customise.
Why Choose SnapBuy Lite?
Everything a small store needs to start selling online, without paying for it.
Free for Your Business
Download it, install it on your own hosting and run your store without licence fees.
Website + Admin Panel
Two ready-to-run apps that work together out of the box, with a web installer and setup guide.
Sell Two Ways
Run fast local delivery (Quick) and a wider online catalogue (Shop All) side by side, each with its own cart.
Any Kind of Store
Categories, brands and variants (size, colour or pack) fit groceries, fashion, electronics, beauty and more.
No Map API Costs
Delivery zones and location picking use OpenStreetMap, so there is no Google Maps key or billing to set up.
Upgrade Without Losing Data
Lite uses the same database as the full SnapBuy, so you keep every product, customer and order when you upgrade.
