In their own words
TemplateFlip
TemplateFlip offers website templates, themes, and web graphics, including free downloads. Its designs target businesses, startups, agencies, creative professionals, and job seekers. The Super Agency template is responsive and arranged for work, services, teams, portfolio projects, testimonials, and company statistics. It uses Bootstrap 5 and Font Awesome icons, while its contact form relies on Formspree to receive submissions without a backend or email provider. The free download contains HTML, CSS, and JavaScript; licensed downloads also include SCSS. Free items are restricted to personal projects and must retain the TemplateFlip attribution link in the footer. Paid licenses are lifetime purchases: Single costs $12, paid once, Multiple costs $25, paid once, and Extended costs $65, paid once. Those plans vary by website and team-member allowances, support duration, and permission to sell derivative products. Licenses are non-exclusive and non-transferable, and paid support is provided by email for loading or functionality problems.
WooCommerce
WooCommerce is free, self-hosted software for running an online store with omnichannel sales channels. Its core plan costs nothing, billed free with no monthly subscription. The plan lists unlimited products, unlimited orders, and unlimited APIs, allowing catalog and order volume without those stated caps. WooCommerce supports digital products as well as general online-store sales, includes abandoned-cart recovery, and provides an app marketplace. The listed transaction fee is payment-only. Because the hosting model is self-hosted, the store runs on hosting managed by the user rather than a hosted WooCommerce environment. WooCommerce is made by WooCommerce, founded in 2005 and headquartered in San Francisco, California, USA. The combination of omnichannel selling, digital-product support, recovery tools, and extensible apps gives store operators a broad core setup without a subscription charge. Hosting management remains part of choosing this model.
