One of the most common questions we get is whether the free Superbuy Spreadsheet templates are sufficient, or if upgrading to paid versions is worth the investment. The answer depends entirely on your use case.

In this guide, we compare every free and paid template side by side, show you exactly what you get at each tier, and help you decide which option matches your shopping or reselling workflow.

What Free Templates Include

The free tier includes three core templates that handle the majority of buyer needs. The Order Tracking Sheet lets you monitor individual purchases from payment to delivery. The Supplier Comparison Sheet supports up to 5 sellers per comparison with price, QC score, and shipping data. The Wishlist & Alerts Sheet allows manual price tracking and saved item lists.

These templates are not limited by time or number of items. You can track 100 orders or save 500 wishlist items without hitting any caps. The free tier is genuinely usable for serious shoppers.

What Paid Templates Add

Paid templates unlock three categories of advanced features: automation, scale, and integrations.

Automation features include automatic price drop alerts, stock level notifications, and weekly summary reports sent to your email. Scale features remove limits on supplier comparisons, inventory SKUs, and shipping region calculations. Integration features connect your spreadsheet data to external tools like Google Sheets and Excel for offline analysis.

When to Upgrade

Upgrade to paid if you meet any of these criteria:

  • You manage more than 50 active orders at once.
  • You compare suppliers across more than 5 sellers regularly.
  • You resell items and need automated inventory tracking.
  • You ship to multiple regions and need accurate cost calculations.
  • You want email alerts so you do not have to check the site manually.

If none of these apply to you, the free templates are more than enough. Many users never upgrade because the core functionality is already complete.

Cost vs Value Analysis

A paid subscription at $10 per month costs $120 per year. For a reseller who buys $2,000 in inventory monthly, the automation features save approximately 4 hours per week. At a modest valuation of $15 per hour, that is $60 per month in saved time. The subscription pays for itself six times over.

For a casual buyer who places one order per month, the free templates are the obvious choice. The value proposition only makes sense at scale.
