Overview
An e-commerce site is more than a product catalogue with a checkout button bolted on — inventory needs to sync correctly, payment gateways need to handle failures gracefully, and the checkout flow needs to actually convert rather than lose customers at the cart. We build on Shopify or WooCommerce for most stores, since both are mature, well-supported platforms that cover the common requirements well, and move to a custom build only when the business genuinely needs something those platforms can't do.
What's included
Our process
Platform selection
Shopify, WooCommerce or custom, chosen against your catalogue size and needs.
Store setup & design
Product catalogue structure and custom storefront design.
Payment & shipping integration
Gateway setup, shipping rules and tax configuration.
Testing
Full checkout flow tested end to end, including failure cases.
Launch & handover
Store goes live with your team trained on managing orders and products.
Who this is for
Businesses selling physical or digital products online, whether launching a first store or replacing an underperforming one. Store size matters for platform choice — Shopify and WooCommerce comfortably handle most catalogues; very large or unusual inventory structures sometimes need a custom build, which we'll flag honestly during scoping.
Engagement & pricing
Priced per project based on platform, catalogue size, and the complexity of payment/shipping/tax rules. Shopify and WooCommerce builds are typically more cost-effective than custom e-commerce development; we quote in writing after understanding your catalogue and requirements.
Why this matters
Payment gateway integration, inventory sync and checkout flow are where most e-commerce builds run into trouble — we test these paths thoroughly before launch, not just the browsing experience.
