Store types
The stores we build
Six shapes of store, one standard of craft. Most businesses sit across two of them — tell us how you sell and we will find the fit.
WooCommerce stores
WordPress-based stores for businesses that want full control of hosting, content and plugins — hardened and kept fast.
- WooCommerce
- WordPress
- Hosting
Headless & custom commerce
Next.js storefronts on a commerce backend, for catalogues, pricing or flows the off-the-shelf platforms cannot model.
- Next.js
- Headless
- Custom checkout
B2B & wholesale
Trade accounts, tiered price lists, quote requests and bulk ordering, running alongside your retail store.
- Price lists
- Quotes
Marketplaces
Vendor onboarding, commissions and payouts for platforms that sell other people's stock.

- Payouts
Subscriptions & digital
Subscription boxes, memberships and downloads with billing that renews itself.

Built into every store
What ships as standard
The parts that decide whether a store earns its keep — included from the first build, not quoted as extras.
Payments that fit your market
Stripe, PayPal and local Sri Lankan gateways, with the currencies and tax rules your customers expect.
A checkout that stays out of the way
Guest checkout, saved addresses and a mobile-first layout, with every step measured for drop-off.
Stock that stays in sync
Inventory tied to your warehouse, POS or supplier feeds, so you never sell what you do not have.
Product SEO
Product structured data, clean collection URLs and fast product pages, so the catalogue can be found.
Shipping and fulfilment
Delivery zones, courier rates and order-status emails that cut the “where is my order?” messages.
Analytics from day one
Conversion tracking and funnel reports in place before launch, so every change can be measured.

FAQ
Questions, answered
What people ask us about building an online store, before the first call.
It depends on the platform, the size of the catalogue and how many systems the store has to talk to, so we quote rather than guess. A theme-based Shopify store sits at the lower end; a custom or headless build with ERP and POS integration sits higher. Whatever the number, you get it as a fixed quote before any work starts.
Shopify if you want hosting, security and updates handled for a monthly fee, and your products fit its model. WooCommerce if you want full control of hosting and content, or already run WordPress. We build on both, and we recommend one based on your catalogue, budget and who will run the store day to day.
Yes. We integrate international gateways such as Stripe and PayPal alongside Sri Lankan gateways, and set up multi-currency where you sell abroad. Which gateways you can use depends on your bank and business registration, so we confirm that during scoping rather than after launch.
Yes. Products, customers and order history are migrated, and every old URL is redirected to its new home so you keep the rankings you have earned. We run the new store in parallel until the numbers match before switching over.
Usually, yes — through the system's API or a scheduled sync, so stock and orders are entered once. If your current POS cannot be connected, we also build POS systems that share one stock count with the store.
You do — domain, store account, hosting, customer data and code, all in your name from day one. There is nothing to buy back if you ever move on.
