We build online stores that are easy to shop, quick to load and simple for you to manage. Payments, delivery and stock are set up before launch, so your first order is not a surprise.
Card, EFT and buy now pay later, connected and tested with a real order.
Courier rates, free-delivery thresholds and collection points set up for how you really ship.
Good photos, plain descriptions, sizes and variations, and prices that load fast on a phone.
Stock levels, order emails and a dashboard you can understand without a manual.
Delivery and returns information, reviews and secure checkout, where customers look for them.
Search-friendly structure and tracking, so Google Ads and analytics work from the first day.
We talk about your products, customers and how you ship today.
We agree the platform, the pages and the quote.
We build the store and load your products for review.
We test orders end to end, then go live and stay close for the first weeks.
We build on both. For most South African stores we suggest WooCommerce: you own it, there is no monthly platform fee and it fits local payment and courier services. Shopify is a good fit for some stores, and if it is right for you, we will say so.
Once the store is live we can run Google Ads, Google Shopping and search so people can find it.
Costs that only show up at checkout are one of the most common reasons shoppers abandon a cart, here as anywhere. We show delivery pricing early and set free delivery thresholds that suit your margins.
Cards are not enough on their own. Some shoppers want instant EFT through a gateway such as Ozow or Peach Payments, others want to split the cost with Payflex. We connect what your customers use, not every option that exists.
Three clear photos of a product do more than a long description. If your pictures are not good enough yet, we can arrange the photography as part of the job.
Online stores start from R15,000. The price depends on how many products you have, the payment and delivery options, and any custom features. We quote after a short call.
