NitroCart is a store engine you install on a VPS you rent. Orders and media stay on your IP. The license has no percentage of turnover. This blog is the long form of that product: four formats, a launch on the order of 15 minutes, up to ten live copies on one key, and when the engine is the wrong tool.
Start with what a self-hosted store engine is or Shopify vs NitroCart for paid traffic. If you already know the job, see pricing and install.
What a self-hosted store engine is, and how NitroCart differs from renting a storefront: license up to 10 IPs, 4 formats, 15-minute deploy.
Sectors, rows, seats, dates, printable tickets — the Tickets format in the same engine as catalog.
A storefront on your IP, unique markup, your domain. Supplier catalog — data stays with you.
The supplier catalog on your server. Swap SKUs in 5 minutes, pay through your acquiring.
A honest swap of landing and catalog on live traffic. Not content swapping for moderation.
Enterprise — up to 10 IPs. One license for a pack of geo tests, not ten SaaS accounts.
Updates via Docker image and patches. Backup before major changes — in Engine settings.
Sitemap, JSON-LD, Google/Yandex/Bing codes, and a blog with categories — no agency, no SEO-plugin pack.
Store UI translation without a developer: menu, cart, product card, errors — 77 editable strings.
Pixels and markup edits attach per format — not one shared header for the whole store.
The catalog theme need not match the landing theme. Five ready themes on each of four formats.
Slider, promo, countdown, delivery, reviews — homepage blocks from admin, no freelance theme.
Acquiring or an international provider — no SaaS checkout lock-in. Connect by URL and API.
