Choosing
Which e-commerce platform should you choose?
Shopify suits you if you want hosting, security, checkout and platform updates handled for you. It is the simplest option to run, and apps add features as your requirements grow. Check the recurring app subscriptions before choosing them. Deeper checkout changes are limited to the Shopify Plus plan, which could affect a store with an unusual checkout.
WooCommerce suits a team already using WordPress, especially when the store sits alongside substantial content. You have control over the code, data and hosting, but someone must look after hosting, updates, security and compatibility between plugins. Include that ongoing work when comparing it with a hosted platform.
A custom or headless storefront, such as Next.js on a commerce back end, fits unusual catalogues, product configurators and content-led brands. It takes more build effort, and most later changes need a developer. We recommend a platform after understanding your products and operations, so the choice reflects how you run the store as well as how it looks.
Market
What do buyers in Ireland expect from an online store?
Customers need a way to choose products, pay and follow an order. If you currently sell through social media or messages, a catalogue with online payment and order tracking gives customers those steps without placing each order in chat. Stripe supports business sign-ups in Ireland; we also work with PayPal and other gateways according to the country and platform.
A shop adding online sales has different work to do. Stock needs to connect with the till system, and customers might need click and collect. Wholesale buyers can need account ordering, minimum quantities and customer-specific prices. For made-to-order furniture, printing or jewellery, the product page might need uploads, previews or pricing rules for the choices offered.
Rules
What must an e-commerce project in Ireland handle?
Products can fall under different VAT rates. We configure the tax rules and price display after you confirm the rates for your products and whether prices include tax with your accountant.
Non-essential cookies require clear information and consent before they are stored or accessed. We set up a consent banner that explains the choices and collects consent for those cookies.
At checkout, we make the payment obligation clear, leave additional payments unticked and provide the full terms for review before the contract is concluded.
Consumers can cancel online goods purchases within 14 days after receiving them. We include cancellation information on the store’s policy pages so it is available to customers.
How it runs
How an e-commerce project runs with us
We work remotely over video calls, WhatsApp and shared project boards. IST is 5h30m ahead of Ireland, or 4h30m during Irish summer time. The shared board keeps decisions and feedback visible across that difference.
- 01
Discover
We learn about your business, customers and goals. You explain how orders work now and what the store needs to handle, then we agree the scope together.
- 02
Design
We design product, collection and checkout pages for desktop and mobile. You review the screens and give feedback before we write code.
- 03
Import a sample
We put in a small set of products first. You check titles, variants, prices and images before we import the full catalogue using the agreed format.
- 04
Set up and test
We configure payments, tax and shipping, including the delivery zones and rates you need. We test paid, failed, cancelled and refunded orders against the order record, stock and customer email.
- 05
Launch and care
We set up the domain, email, analytics and search for launch, followed by ongoing support. You have the agreed store scope and reviewed designs as the basis for the work.
Checklist
What to have ready before we talk
Gather these details so we can understand the store and its day-to-day work.
- Product dataPrepare names, descriptions, prices, SKUs, variants, stock and categories, plus weights and package sizes for delivery rates.
- PhotosKeep original files, with consistent backgrounds and image proportions, several angles and an image for each colour variant.
- Payment account detailsGather business registration, bank and identity documents. Open the gateway account in your business’s name and apply early.
- AccessLocate domain, DNS, store, email, analytics and Google logins held in your business’s name.
- Email contentPrepare your branding and policy wording for order confirmations, dispatch, refunds, abandoned carts and password resets.
Cost & time
What affects the cost and timeline of e-commerce development?
The work involved depends on the store’s catalogue, design and connections.
Catalogue complexity
Products with variants, engraving, bundles or measurements need more setup than straightforward product entries.
Design approach
Adapting an existing theme is a smaller piece of work than designing around unusual products or a distinct brand.
Integrations
An order export to accounting is smaller than syncing stock and prices with an ERP or several marketplaces.
Migration
Moving customers, order history, reviews and gift cards adds to a products-only move. Existing customers usually need a password reset.
Custom rules
Gift messages, delivery date pickers, wholesale prices and customer-specific catalogues add design and configuration work.
Avoid
Mistakes to avoid with e-commerce development
Unauthenticated email
Order emails can land in spam when the sending domain lacks authentication. Set up SPF or DKIM for the domain.
Heavy product pages
Compress large images and load review, chat and tracking scripts only where needed, instead of adding every script to every product page.
Too many apps
Review what each app or plugin does and remove unused ones. Extra scripts, admin clutter, conflicts and recurring charges add up.
Sandbox-only testing
Place a real low-value order using live payment settings, then refund it. Check the currency, order email and payment updates.
Questions
Asked by businesses in Ireland
Page updated 5 November 2026
How much does it cost to develop an e-commerce website?
There is no fixed price. The work depends on how products are organised into collections, filters and variants, and on the markets you sell into. Each market can need its own currency, duties, translated content and shipping options. We send a quote once we have agreed the scope.
Should I use a marketplace or build my own store?
Your own store gives you control of customer data and margin, while a marketplace brings ready traffic but sets its own rules and keeps the customer relationship. You can use both. If you do, plan how stock will be synced so the catalogue reflects what is available across the channels.
What is included in an e-commerce store build?
The build covers the catalogue, product and collection pages, cart, checkout and the admin your team uses. It also includes payment and shipping settings, tax rules, order emails, customer accounts and policy pages. Agree which of these need custom work before the scope is finalised, especially around everyday administration.
Can you move my existing store to a new platform?
Yes. We can move products, customers and order history where the platforms allow it. Before the move, map old product and category URLs to their closest new pages. Server-side permanent redirects also need a destination for products you have dropped, so visitors and search engines have a route to a relevant page.
Will I own the store after it is built?
You own your domain, content and code, so you are not locked to the team that built the store. Keep the relevant assets in your business’s control from the start. That gives you the option to work with another team on the store later.
What should we check after launch?
Retest the full checkout after each app, plugin or theme change, and give staff separate logins with only the permissions they need. Compare conversion rate, average order value, checkout drop-off, repeat purchases and product-page speed with your figures from before launch or migration to see where to investigate.
