Our services / E-commerce Development

The store is the easy part

Building a storefront is straightforward. Making it work alongside inventory that lives in another system, fulfilment done by a third party, and a finance team reconciling by hand is where e-commerce projects actually get difficult.

We build stores with the operational side treated as a first-class requirement, because that is what determines whether the store is profitable to run.

The essentials

What we can build

01

WooCommerce and custom storefronts

Built for your catalogue structure, pricing rules and customer types, rather than a theme bent into approximately the right shape.

02

Checkout optimisation

Field reduction, guest checkout, payment method placement, shipping clarity and error handling. Checkout is where the most recoverable revenue usually sits.

03

Inventory and ERP integration

Stock synchronised with the system that holds the truth, so overselling stops and warehouse staff stop reconciling by hand.

04

Payments and tax

Multiple gateways, domestic and international methods, GST handling, invoicing and refund flows that finance can actually reconcile.

05

Subscriptions and B2B pricing

Recurring orders, customer-specific price lists, quantity breaks, quotes and credit terms — the requirements standard themes handle badly.

06

Performance under load

Catalogue query optimisation, caching that respects cart and pricing, image delivery and infrastructure sized for your actual peaks.

In practice

Where this makes a difference

Traffic is fine and conversion is not

Usually diagnosable: a slow product page, a checkout asking for too much, unclear shipping cost, or a mobile layout nobody tested properly. The analysis is quick and the fixes are often small.

You oversell because stock is in two places

When the store and the warehouse system each believe they hold the truth, someone gets a refund and an apology. Proper synchronisation removes the class of problem.

Sale days take the site down

Peak traffic is an engineering problem with known answers — caching strategy, database tuning and infrastructure that scales. It is far cheaper to solve before the campaign than during it.

B2B customers need different prices

Customer-group pricing, quantity breaks, quote requests and credit terms are where off-the-shelf commerce stops fitting and targeted custom work starts paying.

Your questions

Before we begin.

Shopify is excellent when its model fits and you want minimal operational burden. WooCommerce wins where you need unusual pricing logic, deep integration with existing systems or control over hosting and data. We will recommend against custom work when a hosted platform is plainly the better answer.
