Ecommerce website development that holds up at checkout
Our ecommerce website development treats an online store as software that handles money and stock, on Shopify when it fits and custom when it doesn't.

Shopify or custom?
This is the first decision, and we'll give you an honest answer even when it means less work for us.
| Hosted platform, such as Shopify | Custom build | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Standard catalogue and checkout | Unusual pricing, workflows or integrations |
| Time to launch | Shorter | Longer |
| Upfront cost | Lower | Higher |
| Ongoing fees | Monthly plan and apps | Hosting and maintenance |
| Flexibility | Within the platform's limits | Whatever you need |
Most new stores should start on a hosted platform. Custom makes sense when the platform's limits are costing you sales, or when your process is what sets you apart.
What's included
Storefront. Product, category, search and cart pages designed for phones first.
Payments. Payment gateway setup for your markets, with failed and duplicate payments handled properly. In India that normally includes UPI and cards.
Orders and stock. Inventory that stays accurate, and connections to your shipping, accounting or ERP systems.
Tax and invoices. Set up to match the rules where you sell, with your accountant confirming the details.
Speed. Fast product pages on mobile, because slow pages lose shoppers before they've seen the price.
Search readiness. Product structured data, clean category URLs and sensible handling of filters. Our ecommerce SEO service can continue from there.
Tracking. Purchase events that match your real orders, so your Google Ads can be measured accurately.
Security. A hosted checkout from your payment provider where possible, so card data stays off your servers.
Moving an existing store
If you're replatforming, we move your products, customers and order history where the platforms allow it, and redirect every old URL. Done carelessly, a migration can wipe out search traffic that took years to build.
How a project runs
- Scope. Your catalogue, order flow and integrations.
- Recommend. Platform or custom, with a written quote.
- Build and test. Including real test orders, refunds and failed payments.
- Launch. With monitoring during the first days of real orders.
- After launch. We maintain the store or hand it over to your team.
Common questions
How much does an ecommerce website cost?
It depends on the platform, catalogue size and integrations. We quote in writing after a scoping call.
Who owns the store?
You do: the accounts, data, domain and any custom code.
Can you add AI features?
Yes, such as better product search or support automation, where it would really help your customers. We'll tell you if it wouldn't.
