WooCommerce is a free, open-source plugin for WordPress that you host and maintain yourself; SeloraX is a fully hosted, all-in-one commerce platform built for Bangladesh. With WooCommerce you assemble the store from plugins — payments, COD, courier, CRM, accounting — and keep them updated. With SeloraX those capabilities are built in and managed for you.
WooCommerce is powerful and flexible if you have development resources. The trade-off is total cost of ownership: hosting, security, backups, plugin licences, and a developer to keep everything working together. Payment gateways for bKash and Nagad, COD workflows, and Bangladeshi courier integrations are separate plugins you source, configure and maintain.
SeloraX removes that assembly. Native bKash, Nagad and Rocket, COD order workflows, courier booking, built-in accounting and fraud detection, CRM, Facebook CAPI, and an AI sales agent are all in one dashboard, hosted and updated by us, priced in BDT — so you spend time selling instead of maintaining infrastructure.
Every tool you need. None you don't.

SeloraX vs WooCommerce — frequently asked questions
Is WooCommerce free?
The WooCommerce plugin is free, but a live store isn't: you pay for WordPress hosting, a domain, security and backups, and often paid plugins for payments and couriers — plus developer time to set it up and keep it running.
Do I need a developer to run WooCommerce?
Usually yes, for setup and ongoing maintenance — installing and updating plugins, resolving conflicts, and securing the site. SeloraX is fully hosted and managed, so there is nothing to maintain yourself.
Does SeloraX support Bangladeshi couriers and bKash/Nagad?
Yes, natively. bKash, Nagad and Rocket payments and couriers like Steadfast, Pathao and RedX are built in, not add-on plugins.
Can I migrate from WooCommerce to SeloraX?
Yes. SeloraX helps import your products, customers and orders, and most merchants are running within 1–2 days.
Which is better for a small Bangladesh business?
If you want full control and have technical resources, WooCommerce is flexible. If you want to start selling quickly with local payments, COD and couriers built in and nothing to maintain, SeloraX is usually faster and simpler.
