To sell on TikTok without the 10% fee, sell through your own storefront instead of TikTok Shop and drive TikTok traffic to it. On Pludor you get a branded online store with checkout, AI Studio to make the video ads, dropshipping with automatic AliExpress fulfillment, and Flika, a shoppable short-video feed - all in one account. Pludor's platform fee is 4.99% + $0.90 per paid online order instead of TikTok Shop's 10%.
Sell through your own storefront instead of TikTok Shop, and use TikTok videos to drive traffic there. Pludor gives you a branded online store with cart and checkout, plus Flika, a shoppable short-video feed, so buyers can purchase without TikTok taking a cut of the sale. Pludor instead charges a platform fee of 4.99% + $0.90 per paid online order.
TikTok Shop gives you built-in traffic but takes a fee per sale and controls the checkout. Your own store keeps more profit per order and gives you the customer relationship. Many sellers do both: post on TikTok for discovery, then send buyers to their own store to check out.
Start with dropshipping so you don't need inventory. On Pludor, connect your AliExpress account in Settings > AliExpress, import supplier products, and orders are fulfilled automatically. Then use AI Studio to create product videos and Flika to post shoppable short videos, all from one dashboard.
It can be free to start. Pludor's Free plan is $0 with every feature on and no item limit, and new stores get 500 free credits. You only pay for what you use past the free monthly amounts, plus a 4.99% + $0.90 platform fee per paid online order; card processing is charged separately by Stripe.
Use AI video and image tools to generate ads from your product photos and prompts. Pludor AI Studio puts video, image, voice, music and writing AI models in one studio connected to your store, and it can design viral TikTok hooks and character-consistent video ads. Note that output quality depends on your input - a blurry product photo gives a weaker result.
Compare the per-order fee, not just the monthly price. On Pludor, every store including the Free plan gets a free monthly amount of everything (like 3,000 visits and 100 AI replies), and cash sales recorded in POS carry no platform fee at all. Paid plans lower the fee: Starter is $9/mo with a 4% fee, Growth $29/mo with 3%, and Scale $79/mo with 2%.
Yes. On Pludor, import AliExpress products and orders are fulfilled automatically, then pin those products in Flika, a shoppable short-video feed built into the platform. One thing to know: product pins in Flika must link to real Pludor listings, so you can't pin products sold elsewhere.
Write titles, captions and keywords that TikTok search actually picks up, describing the product clearly. Pludor offers a free TikTok SEO Caption Optimizer - describe your video and it generates a title, caption and keywords. It's free to try with 8 runs an hour and no account needed.
Yes, as long as your store has a real branded storefront and a proper checkout, buyers trust direct purchases. Pludor stores include cart, checkout and Stripe card processing, and your store, product pages and checkout never switch off for lack of credit. State shipping times honestly on product pages so buyers aren't surprised.
You can run a store with no monthly cost. Pludor's Free plan is $0 with every feature on, and you pay only for what you use past the free monthly amounts, in credits where 1 credit = 1 cent. Monthly plans like Starter at $9/mo are optional bundles of credits with bigger free amounts and a lower per-order fee.
Pludor gives independent businesses and creators the tools the giants have - store, POS, AI receptionist, AI Studio, live selling and a marketplace.
Free to start - no card, no item limit. Pay only for what you use past the monthly free amounts.
