- On request
What it’s for
An online shop has two sides, and both have to work.
Buyers want to find the product, pay the way they’re used to and know when it arrives. Sellers want to see orders, stock and shipping in one place. A shop that only looks after the first side creates work every day.
Who it’s for
Those selling in a physical shop
Selling online too, around the clock.
Those already selling on social media
Payments and shipping stop going through messages.
Those with a shop that doesn’t sell
It starts with an audit, at no cost, to decide between improving and rebuilding.
What’s included.
Both sides of the shop, designed together.
On delivery
- The shop live, bespoke or on Shopify, with the choice written into the proposal
- The dashboard for managing orders, stock and products
- The payment, invoicing and shipping accounts in the shop’s name: sales revenue never passes through me
Shopfront, catalogue and checkout
Products arranged the way buyers look for them and a short checkout, starting on phones.
Payments
Card, MB WAY and Multibanco reference, depending on the chosen provider.
Shipping
Rates by zone and weight, in-store collection where it makes sense, and a tracking number for the buyer.
Day-to-day management
Orders, stock and customers in one dashboard, no developer needed, connected to the invoicing already in use when it allows.
The rules for selling online
The electronic complaints book, the right of withdrawal and privacy, built into the design.
From basket to dispatch. What happens with every order, on both sides.

Not every business needs a basket: Casa de Eletrodomésticos 3003 shows its gas cylinders and prices and takes orders by phone or WhatsApp, with no online payment.
What’s in writing.

The work belongs to the client

No monthly fees or lock-in
A 30-day warranty at no cost and, after that, adjustments by the hour or by request, only when needed.
It applies to every project and is set out in the terms of service.
Questions about online shops.
Everything else is answered by email, on the next working day.
Write an emailHow much does an online shop cost?
There are no list prices. The price depends on the catalogue, payments, shipping and management, and is fixed in the proposal before work starts.
How long does an online shop take?
Around 8 weeks for a typical shop. The timeline is written into the proposal and relies on products and approvals arriving on time.
Is it better to go bespoke or use Shopify?
It depends on the catalogue, the shipping and what the shop has to connect to. The proposal compares both paths.
Can invoicing be automatic?
It can, when the invoicing software allows it. The proposal says what connects and how.
Who adds the products?
The seller, in the dashboard, without a developer. The first upload of the catalogue is agreed in the proposal.
Are there monthly costs?
Only the providers’, such as the platform or hosting and payment fees, set out before work starts. For my work, there are no monthly fees.
Who handles the buyers’ data?
The shop is responsible for it. When I process it on the shop’s behalf, I do so as a processor, under the data processing agreement the GDPR requires.
What if there’s already a shop that isn’t selling?
It starts with an audit at no cost. The decision between improving and rebuilding is put in writing, with the reasons.
