Sell direct, keep the margin the marketplace was taking

Selling through a marketplace means renting your own customers. They take a cut of every order, own the relationship, and can change the rules whenever it suits them. Your own shop costs less over a year than most sellers lose in fees in a quarter.

What you get
  • A shopfront built to convert

    Product pages, basket and a checkout that does not lose people at the last step, which is where most shops quietly leak their revenue.

  • Card payments through Stripe

    Set up in your own Stripe account so the money goes straight to you. Apple Pay and Google Pay included, because a phone checkout without them loses sales.

  • A back-end dashboard you can run

    Manage orders, stock, refunds and receipts yourself, without needing us. Built to be used by whoever is actually in the office.

  • Joined up with your CRM and email

    Customers flow into the tools you already pay for, so nobody gets lost between the shop and the follow-up.

  • Priced in pounds and ready for VAT

    Set up for UK trading from the start, including VAT handling and lawful treatment of customer data.

How it works
  1. 01

    Map the catalogue

    We work out what you sell, how it varies, and how stock actually moves. Getting this wrong is what makes shops painful to run later.

  2. 02

    Build the shop

    Storefront, checkout and dashboard, with your real products in it rather than placeholder samples.

  3. 03

    Test with real money

    We run genuine transactions through the whole path, including refunds and failures, before a single customer sees it.

  4. 04

    Launch and train

    We put it live and walk your team through the dashboard until running it is boring.

Common questions
Why not just use Shopify?
Sometimes you should, and we will say so if that is the honest answer for your size. The case for your own shop is that you stop paying a percentage forever and you own the customer relationship outright.
What are the running costs?
Hosting is minimal, and Stripe takes its standard percentage per transaction. There is no monthly platform fee and no cut going to a marketplace.
Can I move my existing products across?
Yes. Migrating a catalogue from Shopify, Etsy, WooCommerce or a spreadsheet is normal work and is included in the quote.
What happens if something breaks at the weekend?
Shops we run are monitored, so we usually know before you do. Support terms are agreed in the proposal rather than left vague until it matters.
