Before you start

A few things that stay with you

Your content and the law

Your store's content must comply with the laws and regulations of the country you operate in.

Licences and approvals

Running an online store may need a trade licence or other approvals, depending on the country. In the UAE, for example, check with your licensing authority before you launch.

Third-party accounts

You register with payment gateways, shipping providers and other third-party services yourself. We will help you set them up.

This is general guidance, not legal advice. The sooner your licence and gateway accounts are in hand, the sooner the store can go live.

Included in every package

Seven things you don't pay extra for

Every store, from Basic to Premium, starts with these. Hosting, SSL and the email account come with Option 1, where we host your store.

Business hosting for the first year

A WooCommerce-ready plan on our account. After year one it renews at AED 600 a year. Not included if you host with your own provider.

SSL certificate

Your store, cart and checkout load securely (https) from day one on our hosting. With your own provider, SSL comes from them.

Basic SEO setup

SEO setup completed, including page titles, meta descriptions, focus keywords, XML sitemap, breadcrumbs and redirect management.

1 professional email account

An email with your site name, on our hosting. A paid business email account replaces it, so you can't keep both.

Template-based design

Your logo and brand colours on a proven store layout.

Training

A walkthrough of adding products, handling orders and editing pages yourself.

3 months of support

Fixes and questions answered after launch. Longer cover is Priority Support.

Domain is separate

Registration is an add-on: .com from AED 100 a year, .ae from AED 175 a year.

Hosting, SSL and the email account are included when we host your store. If you host with your own provider, they come from your provider and are billed to you. Hosting covers the first year and support the first three months. Anything beyond that we scope after a short conversation.

How the store works

What your customers and your team get

The shop side, in plain terms.

Customers can browse and buy

Product pages, a cart and checkout, built mobile-first. Prices show with 5% VAT where you want them to.

Customers pay your way

One card payment gateway comes with Basic and Standard, two with Premium. Cash on delivery and bank transfer are built into WooCommerce. A third gateway or a buy-now-pay-later option such as Tabby is an add-on.

You run it day to day

Add products, change prices, manage orders and customers from the WordPress dashboard. We train you on it before we hand over.

Delivery rates and carrier booking need the Shipping add-on (AED 1,500). Until then you set simple delivery charges yourself.

See before you buy

A live sample store

Built by us to show what the Basic store package looks like. It is a sample, not client work. Standard and Premium stores follow the same approach with more products and features, as the packages above show.
