Duplicate Why Xenforo doesn't have an e-commerce addon?

[AndreaMarucci]

Well, I'm wandering if there's a specific reason not to add an official Xenforo addon that add e-commerce functions to this beautiful software. I think that many people will be interested in this kind of solution.

I know that there's the Dragonbyte addon but it's simply too expensive for me and I'd prefer to have to pay something in advance and having an annual fee just like the prices of Xenforo solutions.

Maybe because XenForo is a forum software and not a CMS with a forum option.

This has been suggested before,

Official XenForo Commerce Addon: Donations, Shop, Billing, Monetizing, Ads, Subs, affiliate, etc

IMHO financial features need to be in 1st party software because of the potential for abuse and the need for solid code. Such functionality would give addon developers a wide range of possibilities. Having such official addon would allow xenforo webmasters to generate much more income through...
