Shapes DashCommerce
fits cleanly.
DashCommerce isn't the right tool for every store. These pages are honest about where it fits well, where it fits awkwardly, and where a hosted platform would serve you better.
For digital downloads
Gumroad is a storefront. Lemon Squeezy is a Merchant of Record. DashCommerce is the commerce layer for teams that want to own the checkout, the catalog, and the customer — and aren't afraid to handle tax themselves.
For marketplaces
If your storefront has more than one seller behind it, you need Stripe Connect. DashCommerce is the plugin that wires Connect into an Astro storefront without you writing the PaymentIntent plumbing yourself.
For SaaS subscriptions
DashCommerce fits the SaaS shape where your marketing site, docs, and checkout all want to live in the same repo — with Stripe doing the recurring billing and your CMS doing everything around it.

One command scaffolds a working storefront — the fastest way to find out whether DashCommerce is for you.
