Inside the app

What it does out of the box

25 connected functions on one schema across 2 user types. Everything below is in the template before a line of customisation.

Shop
Grid, search and filters, with variants and genuine stock state. “Out of stock” discovered at checkout is the most expensive moment to discover it.
Basket
Variants, quantities and delivery options priced as you set them, with the total settled before the payment step rather than after.
Orders
Status, tracking and returns, plus reorder from history, which is most of what repeat revenue actually is.
Listings
Products, variants, price and stock in one place, editable from a phone.
Fulfilment
The queue to pick, pack and dispatch, with stock decremented as it happens rather than reconciled on Friday.
Stock
What is low, what is out and what moved this week, so a reorder decision is made before the bestseller runs dry.

User types

Two apps, one catalogue.

The shopper is outside your business and the vendor runs it. If you host several sellers, the vendor role is per seller and each sees only their own listings and orders.

Customer
3 of 6 screens
The shopper
Browses without an account, buys, tracks the order and reorders from history. The order record belongs to a customer you own rather than to a platform.
Preview as the customer
- Browse and search without signing up
- Variants and stock shown before checkout
- Checkout through your own payment provider
- Order tracking and returns
- Reorder from history
Vendor
3 of 6 screens
The seller
Manages listings, stock and the orders to pick. Built for a seller running their own store, or for sellers you host on it.
Preview as the vendor
- Listings with variants and stock
- Orders to pick, pack and dispatch
- Stock decremented as it goes, not reconciled later
- Pricing and promotions you control
- What sold, and what is about to run out

The limits

What this is not.

The same list we give for every app in the catalogue, because the fastest way to a bad project is a promise made in a meeting that nobody wrote down.

We do not process payments
Checkout runs through your own payment provider account. We never sit in the money flow and never hold your funds.
It is not a marketplace
No built-in audience. You bring the traffic; the app converts it and keeps the customer record.
We are not your tax adviser
VAT and sales tax, distance selling and returns law vary by market and remain yours to satisfy. We build to the rules you confirm apply.
Below a certain volume, do not build
A hosted store is genuinely good value early on, and we will say so. Building wins when the percentage is material or the platform’s model does not fit yours.

Questions

Questions, answered plainly.

If yours is not here, ask it on the call rather than guessing from a pricing page.

Not covered here?

Ask a consultant directly. No form to fill in first, and no follow-up sequence.

Book a consultant All questions

Why build rather than use a hosted store?

Below a certain volume you should not, and we will tell you that. Building wins when the transaction percentage is material, when your pricing or catalogue rules do not fit the platform, or when you need the customer data somewhere you control.

Can it connect to our existing stock system?

That is usually the right approach. If Inventory Control or an ERP already holds the truth about stock, the store reads from it rather than keeping a second version that drifts.

Does it handle subscriptions?

It can, but recurring billing has enough of its own logic, dunning, proration, failed cards, that we scope it explicitly rather than assuming it.

Can it host multiple sellers?

The vendor role is already per seller. A full multi-vendor marketplace with payouts and commission splits is a larger fitted build, and worth scoping properly.

Do I get the source code?

Yes. Both apps, API, schema, migrations and deployment configuration transfer on delivery. No licence key and nothing that calls home.
