Solutions :: eCommerce

What is eCommerce?

eCommerce is a way of selling goods and services electronically, usually via a 'shop' or 'online catalogue' over the internet. This follows a similar process to selling goods 'offline', including concepts like display, stock control and payment.

Customers to your store will be able to view your products along with an image, description and price. If they choose to purchase a product it will be added to their 'Cart' or 'Shopping Basket'. When finished they will be able to 'Checkout' and place the order with you, optionally paying online via credit card if applicable.

How does it work?

eCommerce stores can include many thousands of products, our normal practice is to populate your shop with an agreed number of products for launch.

Once your store is up and running you will be able to login to an administration area and manage your shop quickly and efficiently, adding products and images, contacting customers, processing orders, etc.

Payment Processor LogosDepending on individual requirements this can involve online ordering with automated payment processing, or online ordering with offline payment processing.

Our eCommerce solutions can be integrated into your current ordering/payment procedure with minimal time and effort.
