How much does an online store cost in South Africa?

The number of products matters far less than people expect. What really drives cost is how complicated the buying process is: variants, trade pricing, bundles, subscriptions, delivery rules and anything that has to talk to software you already use.

• How many products and how many variants each has
• Whether product photos and descriptions already exist
• Delivery rules: flat rate, courier rates, zones or collection
• Trade or wholesale pricing tiers
• Connections to accounting, stock or courier software
• Whether you are migrating an existing store

Whatever you spend, some things are not extras. If a quote leaves these out, the store is unfinished rather than cheap.

• A secure checkout that works properly on a phone
• Automated order confirmation and shipping emails
• Stock levels that count down as orders come in
• Analytics and conversion tracking from day one
• Product pages that Google can read and index
• An admin area you can use without calling us
