Who it is for

Boutiques and shops

A small shop needs its stock visible and a way to be paid. Not a warehouse system.

What you would ask for first

Roughly the order people actually ask, from the first week of using it.

A catalogue with prices

Photographs, sizes, prices, what is left. Updated in a sentence.

A buy button that is safe

The customer pays on the payment provider’s own page and comes back. Your site never touches a card number.

Enquire on WhatsApp

For the half of customers who will always rather ask than order.

New arrivals

The section that brings people back weekly.

Delivery and returns, in plain words

Stated where the price is, which is where the question occurs.

What it costs you

You start with 300 free sparks, which is about forty changes — enough to get the whole first version standing and then some. After that a change is usually 3 to 8 sparks, or three to eight rupees, and you are shown the likely cost before it runs.

There is no monthly fee and no charge for having the account. Connecting a domain you already own is free, certificate included.

The bits that need something from you

Before it can be built. Selling online needs a merchant account in your business’s name, and that is asked for with the steps attached rather than assumed.

What this does not do. Stock levels synced to a shop till, courier integration and automated returns are not built.

Questions from this trade

Is this a full online store?

It is a catalogue with hosted checkout, which is what most small shops actually need. Warehouse-scale inventory is not what this is.

Do you take a cut of my sales?

No. You pay for changes; your sales are yours and go to your own merchant account.

Describe your boutiques and shop in a paragraph

Ask for access and a person reads it. If it is a fit you get an invitation and 300 sparks.

Request access Take the free founder test

Access is by invitation and a person reads every request. The founder test is free, takes a few minutes, and tells you what you are getting before you commit to anything.
