User Reviews

Users praise Big Cartel for easy setup, beginner-friendliness, and affordable pricing, and note improvements over older versions. However, many report ongoing crashes and bugs, particularly on startup and during listing tasks, and frustration with recent UI updates that reduce usability. A frequent pain point is the lack of bulk editing tools (bulk activation, bulk price changes), and some essential features have gone missing or behave inconsistently (e.g., quantity display, shipped status management). Overall, reliability issues overshadow positives for many merchants.
Pros
  • Easy setup and user-friendly onboarding.
  • Improvements over previous version with smoother workflow.
  • Affordable pricing options including a free tier.
  • Well-suited for beginners and helps you start selling quickly.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and instability, including crashes on startup and when listing or uploading products.
  • New UI/layout updates have made the app less intuitive and harder to use.
  • Missing/broken bulk actions (no bulk option to activate/deactivate items or bulk edit prices).
  • Missing or removed essential features (e.g., lack of quantity display on listings; inability to manage shipped status from the app).

i’ve used this app for years and have loved it - BUT THE LAYOUT UPDATE HAS CAUSED ISSUES : on iphone , when i click on an order to view details i can no longer see the full details of which options were selected by the customer (in my listings i make use of multiple drop down selections). Only around 20 letters are visible which does NOT give me all the information i need to fulfill my orders. This section NEEDS to show the full details regardless of character length. overall the new layout is unnecessary and makes the app as a whole harder to use , or in some cases useless. I need the app to FUNCTION and do not want a focus on new aesthetics as this is only damaging what was there previously.

The app hasn’t worked in quite some time. Crashes upon opening app.

Haven't been able to list any products on mobile due to glitching. Always says "All variants must have a parcel template" regardless if it's selected or not applicable at all. Please fix this
