E-commerce Website Design & Online Store Development
A full online store where customers can browse your catalog, add to cart, and pay securely — built for businesses selling locally or internationally.
An e-commerce website turns your product list into a real, browsable store — not just a page describing what you sell, but a place customers can actually shop and pay on the spot. Whether you're shipping products globally, selling locally, or running a mix of both, we build the store around how your customers actually buy.
Not every business needs a full store from day one — sometimes a simple order form or a WhatsApp-based catalog is enough to get started. If you're not sure which fits your business, our store vs. order form guide walks through how to decide.
What's included

How it works
| Step | What happens |
|---|---|
| 1. Brief & quote | We discuss your products, target customers, and preferred payment methods, then send a clear, fixed-price quote. |
| 2. Build | Catalog, cart, and payment setup — you review progress along the way, not just at the end. |
| 3. Launch | Site goes live, payments tested end-to-end, and you're ready to take orders from day one. |
| 4. Support | Optional maintenance plans keep things updated, backed up, and monitored after launch. |
Pricing
Every e-commerce build is quoted individually — cost depends on catalog size, number of payment methods, and any custom features like bookings or subscriptions. See our general pricing guide for a starting range, or message us for a fixed quote specific to your business. There's no hourly billing — you'll always know the full cost before work starts.
Frequently asked questions
How much does an e-commerce website cost?
It depends on how many products you're selling, how many payment methods you need, and whether you need custom features like bookings or subscriptions. We quote each project individually with a fixed price after a short call about your business — no hourly billing surprises.
What payment methods can customers use?
Card payments (Visa, Mastercard) for customers anywhere, plus M-Pesa Till and Paybill for customers in Kenya. We set up whichever combination fits where your customers actually are — see our M-Pesa payments guide and Till vs Paybill comparison for more detail.
How long does it take to launch an online store?
Most stores launch in 3 to 6 weeks from the initial brief, depending on catalog size and how many custom features are involved.
Can I manage products and orders myself after launch?
Yes. Every store comes with a simple dashboard for adding products, updating stock, and processing orders, so you're not dependent on us for day-to-day changes.
Do I need a full online store, or is a simpler site enough?
If you're only taking a handful of orders a week, a simple order form or WhatsApp catalog might be enough to start. A full store makes sense once you need real product browsing, inventory tracking, and online payment at checkout — read more in our store vs. order form guide.
