eCommerce shop
A shop that takes payments properly: stock, shipping, tax and a short, simple checkout.
Payments set up and tested Stock, shipping and tax configured A back office you run yourself
What it is
Built around the job, not the template
An online shop is not a website with a buy button. It is stock that has to be right, a checkout that has to be quick, and a back office you are shown how to run yourself.
Good fit for: Shops moving online for the first time, makers selling original pieces, and stores outgrowing a marketplace.

What it costs
A starting point, then a written quote
Online shops start from £2,500 for a straightforward scope. Anything bigger is quoted in phases.
Timing depends on the scope and on how soon the content arrives, so a quote gives an estimate of the working time rather than a delivery date.
What the starting price assumes
- Design provided by you, or drawn with you and priced separately
- Content and images supplied by you
- Hosting and care quoted separately, from £250 a year
- Extra work beyond the agreed scope from £35 an hour
