How we work on this

Stages of this service

Week 1

Catalogue and requirements

We record how many products you have, with which variants and in which categories. We also look at how stock reaches the store and who updates it. These shape the size of the project more than anything else.

What you receive

  • Category and filter structure
  • Product attributes and variants
  • Cost estimate and timeline

What we need from you

A product list with prices, along with photos or the source we can take them from.

Weeks 1 to 2

Design

We design the pages that lead your customer to the purchase: home, category, product and checkout. We start with checkout, because that is where orders are completed.

What you receive

  • Home, category and product designs
  • A step-by-step checkout design
  • Colours and typography

What we need from you

Your comments on the designs. The more specific they are, the more they help us.

Weeks 2 to 5

Building on WooCommerce

We build the shop on WooCommerce, with no monthly platform fee. Products, categories, stock and shipping rules, set up for your actual catalogue.

What you receive

  • A hand-built theme and catalogue
  • Stock and variants
  • Shipping rules by region

Weeks 5 to 7

Payments and shipping

We connect the payment methods your customers actually use: cards, IRIS, cash on delivery. Each one is tested separately with a real order, so that on the day you open every payment method has already worked once.

What you receive

  • Cards, IRIS and cash on delivery
  • Courier integration
  • A test order per payment method

What we need from you

Bank account details and your courier contract.

Weeks 7 to 9

End-to-end testing

We run real orders from start to finish, including the hard ones: an out-of-stock product, a cancelled payment and a return. We also check the automatic emails, which are the first thing your customer reads after buying.

What you receive

  • Real orders end to end
  • Returns and cancellations checked
  • Automatic emails checked

Opening day

Opening and training

The shop opens and we train you on running it: products, stock, orders, returns. Analytics is connected so from day one you can see what sells and where the customer came from.

What you receive

  • Training on running orders
  • Analytics and sales tracking
  • 30 days of support at no charge

What the research shows, and what is already set up

Five published figures on how people buy, each linked to its source. Beside every one, the setting that is running on your shop from the first day.

78%

78% of internet users in the European Union bought goods or services online during 2025. Your customers are already there, and already buying.

Verified against: Eurostat — e-commerce statistics for individuals

  • 70% of baskets, worldwide

    The average cart abandonment rate across 50 studies is 70.22%. These are shoppers who have already chosen a product: the interest is there, waiting for a reminder.

    On your shop

    Cart recovery runs from the first day. Anyone who leaves a basket behind gets an automatic email with their product in it and a coupon to come back.

    Verified against: Baymard Institute — cart abandonment rate

  • 40% expect the total up front

    The leading reason for abandoning a checkout is an extra cost that appears at the end. When the total is known from the start, the decision gets made once.

    On your shop

    Delivery is priced inside the basket, by region and weight, before the customer reaches the till.

    Verified against: Baymard Institute — reasons for abandonment

  • 19% look for a sign it is secure

    Almost one in five looks for a clear sign of security before entering card details. That sign is visible, and simple to give.

    On your shop

    HTTPS across the whole shop, anti-fraud checks at the till, and payments through Greek bank gateways. The customer sees the padlock and carries on.

    Verified against: Baymard Institute — reasons for abandonment

  • 18% prefer to buy without an account

    Roughly one in six prefers to complete the purchase without registering. That option keeps the first order short.

    On your shop

    Guest checkout is the default. The account is offered after the purchase, when it finally means something to the customer.

    Verified against: Baymard Institute — reasons for abandonment

The figures come from the Baymard Institute and Eurostat. Every link leads to the page that publishes them, so you can verify any number here yourself.
