So you want to launch an eCommerce store or website with Shopify. While building your store, you will see that the Shopify themes store has free and premium themes for you to choose from. A free theme is more than good enough to get started, a premium theme can bring some benefits to your online business that can’t be overlooked. In this post, we will cover some of the pros and cons of having a premium Shopify theme, how to pick the right one, and whether they are worth the money.Premium vs freeAs we said before, free Shopify themes are more than good enough for most people, especially for online businesses just starting out. You can also test out a free Shopify theme before you make the switch to a premium Shopify theme . Free themes also have much simpler code used in them. Free themes however have a lower level of customization in them, and the design elements used are quite generic. You can get many features of a paid Shopify  theme with third-party plugins if you are really looking for tweaking specific interactions on your website. With these plugins also costing money, it's always better to have a premium theme. More often than not, a premium paid theme will come down to your willingness to invest in one.
