Built-in One-Click Upsells, Downsells and Order Bumps

SamCart: Comes with built-in one-click upsells, downsells, and order bumps right out of the box. No extra plugins, no complicated workarounds—just an immediate way to add more revenue to every sale.
Spiffy: Provides a basic upsell feature, but lacks the comprehensive “stackable” order bump capabilities SamCart offers. If you want to run multiple upsells or get creative with your post-purchase funnel, Spiffy can become limiting.
Why it matters: Higher average order value means more revenue per customer, letting you scale your business without constantly chasing new leads. When it comes to increasing your AOV SamCart is the clear winner.
Marketing tools that give you an edge

Advanced Marketing & Conversion Features

SamCart: Provides industry-leading checkout page templates, robust A/B testing, and conversion-optimized designs that have helped merchants sell over $2 billion combined.

SamCart offers a wide variety of checkout options designed to improve conversion and ease of use including: express checkout, embedded checkout, slide checkout, and sales page.

Plus, detailed analytics & pixel tracking make it easy to see where your sales are really coming from.
Spiffy: Gives users simple templates with a modern design, but not nearly as many conversion-optimized layouts or in-depth analytics. A/B testing exists, but the tools aren’t as extensive or user-friendly.
Why it matters: Small improvements in checkout conversions can lead to exponential revenue growth. If you’re serious about maximizing conversions, SamCart’s superior tools give you the advantage.
Flexible billing that keeps customers happy

Comprehensive Subscription & Payment Options

SamCart: Handles everything from free trials to recurring subscriptions, installment plans, and pay-what-you-want models. You can even pause and manage subscriptions seamlessly from the SamCart dashboard. Plus, SamCart’s Subscription Saver automatically sends alerts to customers when payments fail or their cards are about to expire—helping you recover revenue and minimize subscriber churn.
Spiffy: Supports recurring payments, but doesn’t offer the same depth of subscription management or variety of billing models.
Why it matters: The more flexible your payment options, the more customers you can attract—and keep. SamCart’s advanced subscription features reduce churn and make it easier for customers to stick around
More flexibility and global reach

Payment Options, Gateways & Payment Routing

SamCart: Integrates with 8+ payment gateways—including Stripe, PayPal, Authorize.net, Braintree, and more. You also get Payment Routingwhich allows you to run as many simultaneous payment processors as you need.  

Plus, SamCart's buy now, pay later (BNPL) options gives your customers the option to split payments into manageable installments, reducing friction for higher-priced offers and boosting conversions.
Spiffy: Only supports three payment gateways (Stripe, PayPal, and Apple Pay). Lacks payment routing features and does not offer BNPL, which can limit your ability to meet diverse customer preferences.
Why it matters: More gateways, Payment Routing, and BNPL options help you boost conversions by offering a frictionless checkout. SamCart’s comprehensive payment features also protect your business: if one processor goes down, you can instantly switch to a backup so customers never even notice an issue.
Turn happy customers into powerful affiliates

Native Affiliate Management

Affiliates insights for sellers of digital goods
SamCart: Features a fully integrated affiliate center that lets you manage affiliate commissions and payouts, track performance, and create custom affiliate links—all within one platform.
Spiffy: Lacks native affiliate tracking. You’d need a third-party solution, which can complicate your workflow and add extra costs.
Why it matters: Affiliates can become one of the most profitable marketing channels for online businesses. With SamCart, you can harness that power seamlessly—increasing your reach without juggling multiple systems.
Sell, deliver, and scale your digital products under one roof

Built-In Course Platform (SamCart Courses App)

SamCart: Offers a built-in Course Platform that gives you full control over your online learning environment—no extra logins, no clunky integrations. Prefer to stick with your current setup? SamCart also seamlessly integrates with other major course platforms, giving you maximum flexibility.
Spiffy: Strictly focused on checkout. You’ll need an external course platform to host and deliver your digital products, which can add extra steps and monthly fees.
Why it matters: Having both checkout and course delivery under one roof cuts down on tech headaches, saves time, and reduces extra costs. SamCart’s flexibility—use its built-in course platform or integrate with your favorite online learning platform—lets you focus on growing your business instead of juggling multiple tools.

Reporting & Analytics

SamCart: Provides detailed dashboards track your total sales, conversion rates, average order value, and churn—all in one place. You also get advanced funnel insights and built-in A/B testing to pinpoint exactly which pages and offers drive your best results.

Plus, SamCart includes robust pixel tracking for Facebook, Google, and more, allowing you to retarget and measure ad campaigns with precision.
Spiffy: Offers only basic checkout analytics—like sales volume and transaction history—with limited funnel tracking. While Spiffy supports basic integrations for Facebook Pixel and Google Analytics, it lacks the depth and ease of SamCart’s built-in tracking and analytics tools, meaning more work and potentially less accuracy.
Why it matters: Precise, actionable data helps you focus on what works—and quickly fix what doesn’t. SamCart’s comprehensive reporting and pixel tracking save you time, boost conversions, and keep your marketing strategy grounded in real-world results—no extra software required.

SamCart Wins Where It Counts

While Spiffy might work for a barebones checkout solution, SamCart is built to help you sell more, scale faster, and keep more profit in your pocket. Its conversion-oriented features, advanced subscription management, built-in affiliate center, and integrated course platform make it the clear choice for entrepreneurs who take their revenue growth seriously.
