E-Commerce Development in South Africa

Stores built around local payments, local delivery and local search.

We build and optimise online stores for South African merchants — integrated with local payment gateways and couriers, structured for product search visibility and tuned for checkout completion.

Where online stores lose sales

  • Checkout flows that ask for too much before payment.
  • Payment options local buyers do not trust or recognise.
  • Product pages with no structured data, so they never show rich results.
  • Delivery costs revealed only at the final step.
  • Slow product pages on mobile connections.

Built for conversion and discovery

We optimise the two things that decide e-commerce outcomes: how easily people find products, and how easily they can pay.

  • Local payment gateway integration (PayFast, Yoco, Peach, Stripe)
  • Courier and delivery-rate integration with upfront pricing
  • Product schema for rich results in Google Shopping and search
  • Streamlined guest checkout with abandoned-cart recovery
  • Inventory and order sync with your accounting system

How we work

01

Discovery

We start by understanding your business, your users and the outcome you need — not the technology you think you need.

02

Scope & proposal

You receive a written scope, timeline and fixed-quote proposal before any work begins, so there are no surprises.

03

Design & build

We work in short cycles with regular check-ins, so you see progress continuously instead of waiting for a big reveal.

04

Testing & launch

Functional, security and performance testing across devices, followed by a controlled launch and handover.

05

Support & growth

Ongoing maintenance, monitoring and iterative improvements once you are live.

E-Commerce Development — frequently asked questions

Shopify suits standard catalogues and fast launches. A custom build makes sense when pricing rules, integrations or product configuration go beyond what a platform allows. We advise based on your catalogue and margins.
