Online stores built to sell, with checkout set up for your country.
We build Shopify and WooCommerce stores that load fast, make checkout simple, and handle the payments, tax and delivery rules of the market you sell in. One fixed quote, launched without closing your current store, and owned by you.

Most carts never become orders.
The Baymard Institute puts the average documented cart abandonment rate at about 70%. Among shoppers who abandoned, the most common reason was extra costs such as delivery and fees (40%), and 18% left because the site made them create an account (Baymard Institute).
Both are design decisions, not fate. We show the full price early, allow guest checkout, offer the payment methods your customers actually use, and keep checkout short.
What every store we build includes
- Guest checkout and address autocomplete
- Total cost, including delivery, shown before checkout
- Local payment methods and cash-on-delivery rules for your market
- Product, price and availability structured data for Google
- Order, stock and abandoned-cart notifications that reach your team
- Training so your team runs the store without us
Shopify or WooCommerce? We build both.
Neither is better in general. One is usually better for your products, market and team.
| Shopify | WooCommerce | |
|---|---|---|
| Who runs the servers | Shopify, as part of your plan | You, on hosting in your name (we set it up) |
| What you pay | Monthly plan, payment processing, apps; an extra fee per order on most plans if you use a third-party gateway | Hosting, premium plugins and payment processing; no platform fee per order |
| Payments | Shopify Payments where available, otherwise third-party gateways | Any gateway with a WooCommerce plugin, including local ones |
| Flexibility | Strong within Shopify's rules; checkout changes are limited on most plans | Anything WordPress can do, including unusual checkout and B2B rules |
| Upkeep | Shopify handles security and updates | Plugin and core updates, backups and monitoring needed |
| Usually best for | Fast launch, standard checkout, small teams | Custom rules, local gateways, lower cost per order at scale |

What we set up in the USA, UAE, India and Tanzania.
Payments, tax and delivery rules differ a lot between these markets. These are the details we configure before launch.
USA
- Cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and PayPal; buy-now-pay-later such as Affirm or Klarna if it suits your order values
- Sales tax calculated at checkout for the states where you have nexus. Many states now use only a $100,000 sales threshold, and some, such as California, Texas and New York, use $500,000 (Avalara)
- Accessible checkout built to WCAG 2.1 AA
UAE
- Prices shown to consumers including 5% VAT, as the Federal Tax Authority requires (WAM), with tax invoices showing your TRN
- AED payments through Network International, Telr, PayTabs or Stripe; Tabby and Tamara for pay-later
- Cash on delivery with WhatsApp order and address confirmation before dispatch
- English and Arabic storefronts, including right-to-left layouts
India
- UPI-first checkout through Razorpay, Cashfree or PayU. Shopify Payments is not available in India, so Shopify charges its third-party gateway fee on most plans (Razorpay)
- Cash-on-delivery controls: Razorpay puts typical COD return-to-origin at 25-30%, against 2-3% for prepaid orders (Razorpay)
- Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020: grievance officer details, return and refund policies, and full price break-ups on the store
- GST invoices, and B2B e-invoicing where your turnover requires it
Tanzania
- Mobile money checkout for M-Pesa, Mixx by Yas, Airtel Money and HaloPesa, through a provider licensed by the Bank of Tanzania such as Selcom, AzamPay, Pesapal or ClickPesa
- Shopify Payments is not offered in Tanzania either, so Shopify adds its third-party fee on top of the provider’s (Shopify)
- Prices in shillings, with delivery zones for Dar es Salaam and upcountry orders
- Order and payment confirmations by WhatsApp or SMS
