E-commerce development
Online shops that are easy to buy from, and easy to run on a Monday morning when the stock count is wrong.
E-commerce development is setting up or rebuilding an online shop: the catalogue, checkout and payments, and the connections to stock, shipping and accounting. Vyorde does it for small and mid-size retailers and brands that sell online in one country or several and want a shop their own team can run.
What you get
Online shops
A shop on a platform that suits your size, set up so your team can run it day to day.
Checkout and payments
A short checkout with the payment methods your customers expect in their country.
Product catalogue
Categories, filters and product pages that answer the questions people ask before they buy.
Stock and shipping
Your shop connected to your stock, accounting and couriers, so orders don't get typed in twice.
Several countries
Languages, currencies, taxes and shipping rules for each market you sell in.
Platform moves
Products, customers and orders carried over and old links redirected, so customers and search engines still find the pages.
What's included
- A written platform recommendation, with the reasons
- Category, product, basket and checkout pages designed and built
- A payment provider connected, on your own account
- Products imported with their categories, variants and filters
- Connections to your stock, shipping and accounting systems
- Tax, currency and language settings for each market
- Test orders run end to end before launch, and close checks in the first weeks
What's not included
- Returns policies, terms of sale and tax advice. Those need your lawyer or accountant, and we build what they decide.
- Product photography and product descriptions. We can tell you what a product page needs, and you or your writer supply it.
- Ongoing search work after launch. That is SEO.
You'll probably like this if
- People add things to the basket and then leave at checkout.
- Someone copies every order from the shop into another system by hand.
- You've outgrown your platform, and moving feels like a risk.
How it goes
We follow an order.
From the product page to the parcel, to see where time and customers get lost.
We choose the platform.
The simplest one that fits your catalogue, markets and budget, with the reasons written down.
We build and connect it.
Shop, payments, stock and shipping, tested with real orders before launch.
We launch and watch it.
We check orders, payments and analytics closely in the first weeks, and fix what turns up.
Every project follows the same five steps. See the full process.

Before you start
- A product list with prices, variants and images, in any format
- The countries you sell to, with the currency and language for each
- Your shipping rules, couriers and return policy
- The stock and accounting systems the shop has to talk to
- Company documents ready for the payment provider's checks
You don't need all of it for the first call.
Questions about e-commerce
Which platform should we use?
It depends on your catalogue, your markets and who runs the shop. We'll recommend one after looking at how you sell, and explain why.
Do you handle the payments?
No. Payments go through a payment provider on your own account. We set it up and connect it to the shop.
Can you move our existing shop?
Yes. We carry over products, customers and orders, and redirect old addresses so visitors and search engines land on the new pages.
How long does an online shop take to build?
It depends on the size of the catalogue, the number of markets and how many systems the shop connects to. A new shop with a small catalogue is a far shorter job than a migration with years of orders. Migrations are also planned around your quiet season where possible. You get dates in writing with the quote.
What do you need from us to start?
A product list with prices, variants and images, even as a spreadsheet. Your shipping rules and return policy. Access to the current shop if there is one, and to the stock or accounting system. You also open the payment provider account yourself, because they need to verify your company, not ours.
Who owns the shop and the customer data?
You do. The platform subscription, the domain and the payment account are in your company's name, and customer and order data stays in your systems. We work as invited staff users, and you can remove that access. Custom code and designs are yours once the work is paid for.
Who keeps the shop running after launch?
Day to day, your team: adding products, changing prices and handling orders. We show them how before launch. Updates, fixes and small changes can go under a support agreement, or to your own developers. Either way we hand over notes on how the shop is put together and which integrations to watch.
More questions are answered on the FAQ page.
Want to start smaller?
Try the Technical Audit package first. For a website or web app that feels slow, shaky or invisible, when you want to know why before paying anyone to fix it. Typical timeline: 1 to 2 weeks. The exact dates are in your quote.
