Copia vs Farmigo
Farmigo runs your CSA on its own platform, for 2% of your delivery revenue with a $150 monthly minimum. Copia adds CSA memberships to the Shopify store you already have, priced by members.
One store or two?
If you already sell on Shopify, Farmigo is a second place to sell, with its own checkout and its own customer list. Copia adds your CSA to the store you have, so members are Shopify customers alongside everyone else who buys from you.
Choose Farmigo if…
- You want cards charged automatically, weekly, monthly, by season or upfront
- You take SNAP/EBT online
- You run a herdshare as well as a CSA
- You work with community partners who host your drop sites (host portals)
Choose Copia if…
- You already sell on Shopify and want one store, not two
- You’re a smaller CSA: Copia starts at $49/mo for 50 members, plus your Shopify plan, where Farmigo’s minimum is $150 a month you deliver
- You’d rather pay by member count than 2% of your delivery revenue
- You want CSA members in the same Shopify customer list as everyone else who shops with you

How importing works - 3
Start after your last delivery
Date your first Copia delivery after your last one in Farmigo, so no box is billed twice or missed. Copia doesn’t save cards (members pay each bill from an emailed invoice), so there are no saved cards to move.
