Globally, PrestaShop powers between 230,000 and 300,000 live online stores—most estimates fall in this range depending on the source and how “active” is defined:
- A 2024 analysis reports 236,000 active online stores under PrestaShop, generating €22–24 billion in annual sales (honadi.com).
- PrestaShop itself claims “nearly 250,000 sites” in use worldwide .
- Other platforms, including third-party trackers and community sources, occasionally cite figures like 300,000+ stores .
📊 Why the discrepancies?
- Definition of “active” vs. “installed”
- Some counts include all PrestaShop instances (even test sites), while others only consider stores with regular sales or recent activity.
- Date of data collection
- Numbers from 2020–2021 (e.g. 230,000 in 2015) differ from more recent stats around 2023–24.
- Scope and methodology
- Internal platform data vs. external scanning tools vs. community estimates.
