Online shop development

If orders come in by email or phone today, an online shop lets your customers order themselves and pay by card or TWINT. A small shop with up to 30 products costs CHF 1'800 –⁠ 2'800. Packages start at CHF 1'800, timeframe from about 3 weeks.

We are based in Gossau ZH, in the Zurich Oberland. First meeting on site in the Zurich area or by video, delivery remote for all of Switzerland.

Who this is for

  • You want to sell products online and not just show them.
  • Orders arrive by email or phone today and should become possible online.
  • Your existing shop is slow or hard to use on a smartphone.
  • You want to handle variants, discounts or customer groups properly.

What we deliver for you

Payment the way Switzerland pays
Card and TWINT are set up, and payment runs through a specialised payment provider.
Products and variants
You maintain products, images and prices yourself, and from the “Shop with customer accounts” package upwards variants and discounts too.
Orders and shipping
Orders reach you in a clear overview. Shipping at fixed rates and confirmations are set up.
Built for the smartphone
Every step from the product to the payment works on a phone.

What affects the price

Number of products
The size of the range decides the package: up to 30 products for the small shop, up to 300 for the shop with customer accounts, the large shop above that. With many products, search, filters and data transfer matter more.
Variants and customer groups
Variants, discounts and customer accounts are included from the “Shop with customer accounts” package upwards, customer groups in the large shop. Separate prices per group need more rules than a simple cart.
Integrations
A simple integration, for example with accounting or shipping, costs CHF 1'500 –⁠ 2'300, an integration with an ERP or industry software CHF 9'000 –⁠ 13'500. Shipping at fixed rates is already set up in the package, an integration adds more, such as printing shipping labels automatically. The effort depends on how open the other system is.
Design and content
Custom design, copy and images from us and additional languages are a share of the package price. A blog costs CHF 150 –⁠ 250. The add-on “Prepared for Google” costs CHF 150 –⁠ 250: we work out keywords, tune the page copy to them and set up your Google business profile.

How we work

  1. Clarify range and processes

    We clarify what you sell and how orders, payment and shipping work.

  2. Review the draft

    You see the home page, product page and cart as a draft and give feedback.

  3. Build and fill the shop

    We build the shop and set up payment and shipping. You enter your products yourself, or we transfer existing data as an add-on.

  4. Test purchases and launch

    We check the whole flow with test purchases and then take the shop live.

When something else fits better

  • If you only sell a few offers, a website with the online payment add-on is often enough.
  • If you want to build and maintain the shop yourself, a ready-made shop platform is often enough for a small range.
  • If people should work with their own data behind a login, a web app is the better choice.

Frequently asked questions

How much does an online shop cost?

A small shop is CHF 1'800 –⁠ 2'800, a shop with customer accounts and up to 300 products CHF 6'000 –⁠ 9'000 and a large shop CHF 28'000 –⁠ 42'000, each as a guide price without add-ons.

Is a website enough for a few products?

Often, yes. If you only sell a few offers, such as vouchers or courses, a website with the online payment add-on at CHF 500 –⁠ 800 is enough. A shop pays off once you need a cart, shipping or product management.

How long does it take until the shop is ready?

That depends mainly on the package, and you will find the timeframe per package on this page. Product data and images often set the schedule.

Which payment methods are possible?

Card and TWINT are standard. We clarify further payment methods in our conversation.

Can you transfer products from our existing shop?

Yes. Transferring existing data is an add-on at CHF 2'500 –⁠ 3'800. We first check what form your data is in.

What running costs follow after the launch?

Hosting and the domain continue and are not included in the package. Payment provider fees per sale and any subscriptions to third-party services come on top. We list these costs in the quote. Application care for your shop costs CHF 400 –⁠ 650 per month, small changes included.

Who enters products, copy and images?

You do that yourself in the shop, and you supply the product copy and images. If the products are already in another system, we transfer them with the add-on Transfer of existing data. We can also create copy and images with the add-on Copy and images from us.
