9 answered questions from merchants actively comparing both platforms.
Answers to key questions merchants ask when evaluating their migration.
Prebit is ₹999/month flat. Dukaan is ₹999/month (or ₹799/month billed annually). Pricing is very comparable, but Prebit offers significantly more developer control and customization capabilities for that price.
Yes. Dukaan is primarily a no-code builder, meaning you are restricted to their template settings. Prebit gives you a visual builder plus full access to the underlying theme code (Bit engine) and headless capabilities (Boron Framework), making it much easier to customize as your brand scales.
Yes. Both Prebit and Dukaan are India-first platforms. They natively support Razorpay, UPI, and Cash on Delivery without requiring third-party apps or charging extra transaction fees.
Prebit. Prebit is built with a modern TypeScript stack, Next.js, and exposes typed APIs and a CLI. Dukaan is a closed-ecosystem no-code tool designed for merchants who don't want to touch code at all.
No, neither Prebit nor Dukaan charge platform transaction fees. You only pay standard payment gateway charges (e.g., Razorpay).
Krypton is Prebit's mobile application framework built on Expo and React Native. It allows developers and D2C brands to deploy native iOS and Android e-commerce mobile apps sharing core logic and APIs directly with their Prebit storefront. Dukaan focuses mostly on web and basic web-apps, lacking a developer-accessible framework like Krypton.
Boron is Prebit's server-side rendering framework for web storefronts powered by Next.js. It handles SSR, streaming, and image optimisation specifically tuned for Indian network conditions (lower bandwidth, higher latency on 4G). This enables better Core Web Vitals scores than Dukaan's standard templates.
The Bit engine is Prebit's template language for storefronts. It gives you full code access to modify your theme's structure, logic, and design. Dukaan does not provide this level of code access.
Yes. Prebit includes a native AI Store Builder to generate brand designs instantly, as well as a powerful built-in workflow automation engine to handle advanced D2C operations like abandoned carts, tagging, and inventory logic.
