Find the product
Organise categories, product details, availability signals and search around how customers actually compare what you sell.
A useful online store is more than a product grid. It needs a clear catalogue, a dependable order path and an honest handoff between customer, payment, inventory and delivery.
The payment and gateway scope is confirmed before implementation. If MMG payment integration is part of the brief, merchant onboarding, provider or API access, settlement path and support boundary must be confirmed first. Bank transfer, cash on delivery, card acquiring or another provider may be the better first step.
Some businesses need online checkout immediately. Others need a catalogue, quote request or order conversation first. The right build follows that distinction.
Organise categories, product details, availability signals and search around how customers actually compare what you sell.
Choose a checkout, enquiry or assisted-order path that matches the payment, confirmation and customer-support process.
Define what happens after an order: notifications, fulfilment, delivery, returns, invoicing and the people responsible.
Connect the store to the inventory or reporting source of truth when product, stock and order data must stay aligned.
Starting with the right boundary keeps a commerce build understandable and gives the business a path to grow without pretending every problem is a checkout problem.
Use an e-commerce website when customers need to browse products, understand the offer, place an order or request one through a dependable public buying path.
Use the multi-page website route when the main job is explaining the business, services, locations and contact paths without a full catalogue or checkout.
Use the inventory route when products, stock movement, locations, reporting or checkout connections need a more dependable operational record.
Use a web application when staff need logins, approvals, shared records, dashboards or status changes beyond the public storefront.
Published starting point: the Growth path starts at GYD $250,000 with GYD $25,000 per month shown for ongoing optimization. Catalogue size, content, checkout, payment, inventory, delivery and support determine the final scope. See the pricing guide.
These questions make an e-commerce estimate useful before the store becomes a fragile collection of plugins and manual fixes.
How many products, variants, categories, images, prices and availability rules need to be maintained?
Which provider, account, settlement method, fees, refunds and confirmation steps can the business support?
Who picks, packs, delivers, confirms, handles returns and updates the customer when the order changes?
Where is the source of truth today, and what should happen when online demand meets limited or changing stock?
Who updates products, prices, orders, content, access, backups and security after launch?
What should be measured first: enquiries, completed orders, catalogue views, abandoned carts or repeat purchase?
Describe the product, customer, order, payment, delivery and exception path as it works today.
Decide whether the first release should be a catalogue, assisted-order flow, checkout, inventory connection or broader system.
Verify the customer path, order records, access, notifications, fulfilment boundary and team handoff before launch.
It can include a product catalogue, product detail pages, search or categories, a checkout or enquiry path, order notifications, delivery rules and an agreed handoff to inventory or fulfilment. The exact scope depends on the business and its chosen tools.
The payment and gateway scope is confirmed after reviewing the merchant account, provider, settlement process and customer journey. For MMG payment integration, confirm merchant onboarding, provider or API access, settlement and support before promising implementation. Bank transfer, cash on delivery, card acquiring or another route may be the better first step; no gateway is promised before that review. Delivery and fulfilment rules are scoped in the same way.
The published Growth starting point is GYD $250,000 for multi-page websites, commerce and scale, with GYD $25,000 per month shown for ongoing optimization. Product volume, checkout, payment, inventory, delivery, content and support can move the final scope.
An online store is the public buying surface. Consider inventory software when stock, products, locations or reporting need a dependable source of truth, and a web application when staff need logins, approvals, shared records or operational status changes.
Send the products, current order method, payment and delivery assumptions, and the part of the workflow that is hardest to keep accurate. That is enough to start a grounded e-commerce conversation.
