Pay per component and scale each one from xs to 2xl on its own.

No dark patterns

No vendor lock-in, no upselling, no misleading messages.

Eye-level developer chat over the support bubble. No sales calls.

Developer-first

Git-push deploy, SSH access, bring your own code. No 1-click bloat.

A hardened, service-oriented PHP stack. Deploy code, skip the server admin.

Frequently asked

Can I host the free Shopware Community Edition?
Yes

Yes - That is the common case here. Run the open-source Community Edition on fortrabbit and skip the few hundred per month a managed Shopware plan can cost. Bring the code; fortrabbit provides the hosting.

#
Can fortrabbit handle a Shopware shop's load?
It depends

It depends - Shopware is resource-hungry, so scale the PHP component and give MySQL headroom. Add cron jobs for the message queue and scheduled tasks, and scale the components up as catalog and traffic grow.

#
How do I deploy Shopware to fortrabbit?
Git push

Git push - Manage the project with Composer and deploy with `git push`; the build runs Composer, and the Shopware console commands and migrations run over SSH. Media and generated files live in persistent storage so they survive deploys.

#
Can I try Shopware hosting before paying?
Yes

Yes - Start a free trial — seven days, no credit card — and deploy a real Shopware Community Edition store first.

#
Which database does Shopware use on fortrabbit?
MySQL

MySQL - Add a MySQL component for the shop. Give it headroom, since a Shopware catalog and order history are demanding on the database.
