Online shops & E-Commerce
Individual shops that really work
Starting an online shop is easy today - with standard solutions and modular systems. The problem: Most standard shops look exactly the same, offer the same functions as the competition, and cannot be adapted to your needs. If you want an online shop that really suits you, delights your customers and makes you competitive - then a tailor-made shop is the right answer.
What is a tailor-made online shop – and why is it better?
A standard shop may be cheap - but it costs you. If your customers land on your website and think “it looks like a thousand other shops,” you will quickly lose them. And if the standard shop can't do what you need (custom flows, special product types, integrations), you struggle with limitations every day.
A customized shop, on the other hand, is unique (the design is yours, not a standard template), functional (works exactly how you need it), conversion-optimized (fast, clear navigation, trust), scalable (from 100 to 10,000 products) and your property (not dependent on the platform provider).
In concrete terms, this means: More sales, less frustration, full control over your business.
What you get
Shop Architecture & Technology
We use modern shop technologies such as WooCommerce (on WordPress), our own developments with Vue/React frontends, or headless commerce solutions. The choice depends on your needs - not our favorites.
Design & User Experience
Your shop should not only look beautiful, but also convert. We design according to user research, conversion principles and your brand identity. Every page – from the homepage to categories to checkout – is well thought out and optimized.
Product Management & Backend interfaces
A thousand products? Hundreds of variants per product? We build backend interfaces that allow your teams to manage products quickly and easily - without any technical knowledge.
Payment & Shipping integration
Stripe, PayPal, Klarna, bank transfer, credit card – we integrate the payment providers your customers need. Secure, according to PCI-DSS standard. Plus integration with shipping providers (DPD, GLS) for automatic cost calculation and label generation.
Warehouse Integration & Inventory management
Your shop synchronizes with your warehouse system. Real-time stock updates, automatic inventory management, alerts when products are running low.
Marketing, SEO & Analytics
A nice shop is of no use if no one can find it. We optimize categories and product pages for SEO, build conversion funnels (upsells, cross-sells), integrate email marketing and set up analytics & Tracking on.
Customer Experience & Personalization
Account management, wish lists, order history, personalized recommendations – all of this makes the difference between “I bought” and “I am a regular customer”.
Security & Compliance
PCI-DSS compliance, GDPR compliance, SSL encryption, secure authentication, regular security updates, backup & Disaster recovery. This is not optional - this is basic.
Our process
-
1. Phase
Strategy & Requirements
What do you want to sell? Who are your customers? How many products? Special features? Integration with existing systems? This conversation results in a detailed briefing and cost estimate. 2-3 weeks.
-
2. Phase
Concept & Design
We outline the user flow: homepage, navigation, categories, product page, shopping cart, checkout. Then we design visually. You see it, give feedback, we refine it. 3-4 weeks.
-
3. Phase
Development & Integration
Backend for product management, frontend for customers, payment integration, shipping integration, all systems connected. Continuously tested. 6-10 weeks.
-
4. Phase
Content & Product data
Your products are entered with images, descriptions, prices, variants. SEO optimized. For many products we help with import scripts. 2-4 weeks.
-
5. Phase
Launch & Training
The shop goes live. We train your team in the admin area: manage products, process orders, view reports. Total duration: 4-6 months from start to live shop.
Who is this ideal for?
Fashion & Clothing
Color variations, sizes, fashion trends – it's complex. We build shops where customers can easily find the right size and buy quickly.
Digital products
E-books, software, online courses – need different processes than physical products (immediate access after purchase, no shipping costs). We build this specifically.
Crafts & Services
You not only sell products, but also services – advice, installation, support. The shop has to reflect this: configurable service packages, appointment bookings, custom pricing.
B2B & Wholesale
Quantity discounts, customer-specific prices, credit conditions, bulk order functions - we build B2B shops, not just B2C.
How much does it cost?
Simple shop
25,000-40,000 EUR
Up to 100 products, standard features.
Medium Shop
40,000-80,000 EUR
Up to 1000 products, custom features, integrations.
Extensive shop
80,000-150,000+ EUR
Thousands of products, many integrations, custom development. After the launch, there are optional support packages (hosting, monitoring, updates, small adjustments) for 500-2,000 EUR/month, depending on the scope. That sounds like a lot - but if you look at realistic sales figures, it will pay for itself very quickly.
Why digitalists?
Project Manager = Developer
Not two separate worlds that don't understand each other. Our project managers are developers at the same time - they think holistically right from the start.
Individual concepts
No standard framework, no copy-paste. Each shop is designed specifically for your needs, your customers and your markets.
Everything from a single source
Strategy, design, development, SEO, compliance, support – we handle it all ourselves. That means: no handoff gaps, consistent quality, one contact person.
Experience since 2018
We have been building online shops for a wide range of industries for over 6 years - from fashion to crafts, from SMEs to corporations. We understand e-commerce not only from a technical perspective, but also from a business perspective. We know how customers think and how to build a shop that is not only beautiful but also makes money.
FAQs
How quickly can the shop go live?
Realistic: 4-6 months. That's not long considering we work through the entire strategy and design with you beforehand. It's quicker, but often comes at a higher cost in terms of quality.
Can we manage the products ourselves?
Yes! That's actually important. We build the admin interface so that you can upload products, change prices, update inventory without any technical knowledge.
How much does ongoing support cost?
Depending on your scope and needs: hosting, monitoring, regular updates, small adjustments. This is usually between 500-2,000 EUR/month. Or you are independent and only pay when necessary.
How is security guaranteed?
We build according to current standards: PCI-DSS (for payment processing), GDPR (data protection), SSL (encryption), secure authentication, regular updates and backups. This is not optional.
