Why ecommerce matters in Pretoria right now
We design ecommerce sites that turn that traffic into orders. Not just a catalogue that sits there.
“Most Pretoria stores we take over were built to look good and never built to sell. We design the checkout first and the homepage second. That one change is usually what moves the revenue.” — Juan Preuyt, Founder, New Perspective Design

Increased Sales
An ecommerce website allows businesses to sell products and services 24/7, reaching customers beyond their local area, which means more opportunities to generate revenue and grow their business.
Cost Savings
An ecommerce website eliminates the costs associated with maintaining a physical storefront, such as rent, utilities, and staffing, saving businesses money and allowing them to invest those savings back into their business.

Ecommerce Development in Pretoria
How much does ecommerce development cost in Pretoria?
Our online store builds start from R7,580, with larger catalogue stores from R9,980. The final figure depends on your product count, the custom features you need, and any third-party or payment gateway integrations involved.
We quote per project after scoping, so you are not paying for functionality you will never use.
How long does it take to build an online store?
A standard ecommerce website runs roughly 3 to 6 weeks, depending largely on how ready your product data, descriptions, and images are when we start.
Stores with thousands of SKUs or heavy custom functionality take longer, and we give you a realistic timeline up front.
Which payment gateways do you integrate?
PayFast, Stripe, and PayPal as standard, plus EFT and cash on delivery where it suits your market. PayFast is the most popular choice for stores selling primarily inside South Africa, while Stripe and PayPal help you sell across borders.
Do you build on WordPress or Shopify?
Both. We recommend WooCommerce on WordPress for most Pretoria businesses that want full control, data ownership, and stronger ecommerce SEO, and Shopify for simpler high-volume ranges that need a fast launch.
Do you help after the store goes live?
Yes. We offer ongoing ecommerce SEO, conversion rate optimisation, hosting, and maintenance, so the store keeps converting and climbing rather than going stale the moment it launches.
Can you redesign or fix an existing online store?
We do. A large share of our ecommerce work is taking over stores that look fine but do not sell, fixing the checkout, the product pages, and the site speed, and turning an underperforming store into one that earns.
Established stores often rank faster after a rebuild because they already carry domain authority.
