The other side
A fair comparison starts with what the other platform is good at. These are Checkout Champ's strengths, in its own terms.
Checkout Champ calls itself "the only performance e-commerce platform" (Checkout Champ, November 2026). Its pitch: a store theme is built for browsing, so ads sent to store pages convert at 2 to 3%, and the fix is a funnel page with a fast, customised checkout in front of the native one. Behind that checkout sits an enterprise-class CRM for as many stores as you run. Two plans, both $300 a month, Growth adding 1% and Enterprise a scale-based fee reduction (Checkout Champ, November 2026). Onboarding is sales-led: an account manager runs a kickoff call and a 60-day setup period, then stays on for an additional monthly charge.
An enterprise-class CRM for hundreds of stores and thousands of SKUs, with no extra charge for funnels, domains or users (Checkout Champ, November 2026; Checkout Champ, November 2026).
Over 270 gateways, buy-now-pay-later through PayPal, Affirm, AfterPay, Klarna and SplitIt, and dynamic currency conversion in over 100 currencies (Checkout Champ, November 2026; Checkout Champ, November 2026).
Split tests cover price points, whole products, upsell flows and which gateway performs best, up to four ways at once (Checkout Champ, November 2026).
It reports $7B+ processed, 200M+ transactions a year, 99.9% uptime and PCI Level 1 certification (Checkout Champ, November 2026).
Billing, order management, SKUs and subscriptions behind any native website (Checkout Champ, November 2026).
Customer service management, fulfilment tracking, chargeback reporting, and paid add-ons such as 3DS, fraud management and an account updater (Checkout Champ, November 2026; Checkout Champ, November 2026).

This side
Funnelish is a DTC growth platform for brands that grow through paid ads. It started in 2017 as an eCommerce funnel builder, and that funnel builder is still its core: a page per ad angle, a checkout on your own domain built for the offer it sells, order bumps and one-click upsells after payment. Around it sit subscriptions on every plan, smart payment routing, customer portals that sell, funnel analytics, and Funnelish AI to draft the next page from one brief.
The pricing model is the clearest difference. Every plan takes 0% of your revenue, at any ad spend. The only usage fees sit on two optional features where Funnelish runs infrastructure on every payment: smart payment routing, up to 0.3% per routed transaction, and gateway-agnostic subscriptions managed by Funnelish, up to 0.5%. Shopify is optional: keep it as the back office with every order synced, or run standalone.
Pricing
Both sides publish their plans, so here they are side by side, then what each costs at four monthly sales volumes with the formula shown.

As published on the Checkout Champ pricing page, November 2026.

Every plan: 0% platform transaction fees, unlimited gateways, subscriptions both ways, 14-day free trial, free migration. Smart payment routing (up to 0.3% per routed transaction) and customer portals are on Advanced and up. Full plan comparison.
Platform fees only; your processor's own rates apply on both and are left out. Checkout Champ Growth = $300 + 1% × monthly sales. Funnelish Advanced = $249 + 0% × monthly sales. The last column is the most smart payment routing can add if every card payment is routed: $249 + 0.3% × monthly sales.
| Monthly sales | Checkout Champ Growth$300 + 1% | Funnelish Advanced$249 + 0% | With routing on every card$249 + up to 0.3% |
|---|---|---|---|
| $50k a month | $800 | $249 | up to $399 |
| $100k a month | $1,300 | $249 | up to $549 |
| $250k a month | $2,800 | $249 | up to $999 |
| $500k a month | $5,300 | $249 | up to $1,749 |
Checkout Champ's Enterprise discount rate is not published, so that plan cannot be computed. Gateway-agnostic subscriptions managed by Funnelish carry up to 0.5% on those renewals only; subscriptions held by your gateway carry no Funnelish fee. Pro ($99 a month, up to 100,000 visitors) fits many brands at $50k and follows the same 0% rule.
The shape of the two models matters more than any one number. Checkout Champ's bill grows with your sales: at $100k a month on Growth, the 1% is $1,000 on top of the $300 plan, until you qualify for an Enterprise discount whose rate is not published (Checkout Champ, November 2026). Funnelish's bill is the plan: Advanced is $249 at $100k a month and still $249 at $500k. Your revenue grows. Your bill doesn't.

Payments
Checkout Champ wins on the length of its gateway list. Funnelish is built around what happens to a card after a decline.
| Area | Checkout Champ | Funnelish |
|---|---|---|
| Gateways | Checkout Champ’s strengthOver 270, including NMI, Authorize.net, Stripe, PayPal and Checkout.com. Apple Pay, Google Pay and local methods depend on the gateway (Checkout Champ, November 2026). | Any MID, unlimited on every plan. Apple Pay, Google Pay and PayPal in the checkout. |
| Routing | Intelligent routing logic across unlimited processors and currencies (Checkout Champ, November 2026). Decline retries are not detailed on the pages checked. | Each card goes to the gateway most likely to approve it; a decline is retried on another. Failover, volume splits, local acquiring. Advanced and up. |
| Card vault | Not described on the pages checked. | A vault that works across your gateways, so a retry or a renewal can move gateway with the same card. This is what the up to 0.3% routing fee pays for. |
| Fee on payments | 1% of gross sales on Growth; volume discounts on Enterprise, rate not published (Checkout Champ, November 2026). It is not a payment processor, so your processor's rates apply on top. | 0% on every plan. Your processor's rates apply, nothing to Funnelish per order, unless routing is on (up to 0.3% on routed transactions). |
Recurring revenue
Both platforms bill subscriptions and give subscribers a portal. The differences are where the subscription lives, what happens when a renewal fails, and what the portal can sell.
| Area | Checkout Champ | Funnelish |
|---|---|---|
| Where it lives | Billed on any merchant account with no extra fees; renewals and churn management from the CRM (Checkout Champ, November 2026; Checkout Champ, November 2026). | Per product: held by your PSP (its own billing keeps the schedule), or managed by Funnelish, where schedule and vault live in Funnelish, so a closed MID ends nothing. |
| Failed renewals | "Optimized rebill rates" and "intelligent billing logic" are listed; retry mechanics are not detailed (Checkout Champ, November 2026). | A soft decline on a managed renewal is retried on another gateway before any dunning email, then email or SMS from your domain. Routing is on Advanced. |
| Customer portal | Past orders and tracking, manage subscriptions, update the payment method, buy more with the card on file. Recognises only customers in your Checkout Champ account (Checkout Champ, November 2026). | Skip, pause, swap, change frequency, update card and address, accept one-click offers on the card on file. 100% customizable. Advanced and up. |
| Cost | No extra subscription fee beyond the plan and its percentage of sales (Checkout Champ, November 2026). | Gateway-held: no Funnelish fee. Managed by Funnelish: up to 0.5% per transaction for the scheduler, retries and billing logic. Every plan. |
Checkout Champ's subscription billing is a strength it leans on: any merchant account, no extra fee, subscriber migration handled by your account manager (Checkout Champ, November 2026). Funnelish adds one option: a subscription managed by Funnelish keeps its schedule and card in Funnelish, so renewals can retry on another gateway and changing gateways loses no subscriber.
Conversion
This is what both platforms were built for, and where they agree most. The differences are how many checkouts you can run, how tests get fed, and how fast the page lands.
| Area | Checkout Champ | Funnelish |
|---|---|---|
| Checkout | Customizable single-step checkouts that replace a store's native checkout, with custom cart design (Checkout Champ, November 2026). | Unlimited checkouts on your own domain, one per product or offer, each with its own fields, layout and payment methods. No Shopify Plus needed. |
| Bumps and upsells | On-page and pop-up order bumps, true one-click upsells, custom upsell designs, dynamic upsell offers by product (Checkout Champ, November 2026). | Order bumps anywhere in the checkout, unlimited one-click upsells and downsells after payment, one-click offers inside the portal. |
| Split testing | Checkout Champ’s strengthA/B/C/D tests on pages with traffic weighting, plus tests of prices, products, upsell flows and gateways (Checkout Champ, November 2026). | A/B split tests and funnel analytics on every plan. Funnelish AI drafts the next page from one brief, so a next test is always ready. |
| Page speed | "1 Second Load Speed" and "10x faster" checkouts, as stated on its home page (Checkout Champ, November 2026). | Full landing pages often load in about 0.4 seconds from a global edge network, with reviews, bundles and upsells part of the page rather than app scripts. |
Bumps, upsells and the checkoutWhy page speed matters for paid traffic
Shopify
Both can sit in front of a Shopify store. How the orders get back, and what Shopify charges on them, is where to look.
| Area | Checkout Champ | Funnelish |
|---|---|---|
| Role of Shopify | In its framing, your Shopify or WooCommerce store converts at 2 to 3% and its funnels and checkout replace the native checkout. Works with Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce and Magento (Checkout Champ, November 2026). | Shopify is optional. Keep it as the store and back office with every funnel order synced, or run standalone on funnels. |
| Order sync | Listed as working with Shopify; sync details are not described on the pages checked. | Each paid funnel order lands in Shopify as one order with real variants, discounts, taxes, customer, notes and UTMs, bumps and upsells included, and lowers your stock. Tracking comes back. |
| Shopify fees | Not addressed on the pages checked. | Orders paid through your Funnelish checkout do not go through Shopify's checkout, so Shopify's third-party transaction fee does not apply to them. |

FAQ
Two published plans. Growth is $300 a month plus 1%, described in its billing FAQ as a percentage of gross sales processed through the platform, for brands from $50k in monthly sales. Enterprise is $300 a month plus a scale-based fee reduction for $1M+ in monthly sales; the discounted rate is not published. Add-ons such as 3DS and fraud management are billed separately at prices not listed. Source: Checkout Champ, November 2026.
Yes, by its own description: an enterprise-class CRM with the funnel builder, checkout, subscription billing, fulfilment and customer service tools built around it (Checkout Champ, November 2026). Funnelish is not a CRM. It is a DTC growth platform: funnels, checkout, upsells, subscriptions, portals, routing and analytics, with email and SMS automations built in and integrations such as Klaviyo for the rest.
Every Funnelish integrationIts pricing and home pages do not mention one. The calls to action are Get started and Book a demo, and its FAQ describes a 60-day setup period with an account manager (Checkout Champ, November 2026). Every Funnelish plan starts with a 14-day free trial, no credit card.
Start a free trialNo platform transaction fee on any plan: 0% of your revenue, you pay your processor's own rates. Two optional features carry a usage fee because we run infrastructure on every payment they handle: smart payment routing, up to 0.3% per routed transaction, for the cross-gateway card vault; and gateway-agnostic subscriptions managed by Funnelish, up to 0.5% per transaction, for the scheduler, retries and billing logic. Subscriptions held by your own gateway carry no Funnelish fee.
Every usage fee, and why it existsYes. Checkout Champ lists Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce and Magento among the platforms it works with (Checkout Champ, November 2026). Funnelish connects to Shopify in one click: every paid funnel order, bumps and upsells included, becomes a normal Shopify order with stock updated, and tracking comes back. It also runs without Shopify, with orders sent to ShipBob, ShipStation, AfterShip or Google Sheets.
Funnelish for ShopifyIt depends on what you run. Checkout Champ is stronger for multi-store operators who want a CRM, hundreds of gateways and four-way tests of prices and gateways, and who accept a percentage of sales. Funnelish is the better fit for DTC brands that scale on paid ads: a checkout and upsells you own, 0.4 second pages, renewals that retry across gateways, portals that sell, and 0% of your revenue on every plan.
For brands that buy their traffic, yes. Both put a funnel and a custom checkout in front of paid clicks instead of a browsing storefront. Funnelish does it from $49 a month with 0% of sales, a 14-day free trial and free migration, on any MID. Start the trial, rebuild one funnel, point one ad set at it, and our support team plans the rest with you.
