Hosting for people who sell online
Hosting built for online shops
Room to trade, and people who answer.
Hosting for shops that take real money, with the cart, the certificate and the migration included rather than sold back to you.
Migration done for you · A real person on the phone · Nothing to pay to leave
The carts we run
CubeCart
Upgrades tested on a copy of your own store before they touch the live one.
WooCommerce
Object cache and a persistent queue, so a big catalogue does not block checkout.
Magento
Full-page caching that knows to stand aside for a basket, a search index that rebuilds without taking the shop off, and scheduled jobs that run on their own worker rather than on a visitor request.
PrestaShop
The PHP version the release you are on actually wants, not the newest one.
OpenCart
Nightly backups of files and database, kept long enough to be useful.
If what you need is not here, ask. Most of what we do started as somebody asking.
What is in each plan
The specifications, before the price
Every row is a thing you can test on the day you move in. Make each one true of your own service before you publish this page.

Hosting shops since
some years ago
Where the machines are
Two sites in the United Kingdom
Who answers out of hours
a named engineer, with a second named as cover
Cost to move away
Nothing
Moving an open shop
Nobody finds out you moved
We do it, out of hours, onto a copy. You see the copy on a temporary address and place a test order on it before anything changes.
- We look first. What the shop runs on, how busy it gets and what it sells. If we are the wrong fit we say so and point you somewhere better.
- We build a copy. A complete copy of the shop on an address nobody else has, refreshed on request, with the payment gateway in test mode.
- You place a test order. The catalogue, the last hundred orders, the tax rates and a test payment through your own gateway.
- We switch it over. At the quietest hour of your week, with the old shop still running until the names have moved.
Taking the money
Stripe, PayPal, Opayo and Square
This is the current state of the platform, written during an incident rather than after one. It is not a summary of the month.
Gateways
List the ones you have genuinely configured and supported. A gateway you have never seen belongs on nobody’s page.
- Stripe
- Stripe
- Stripe
- Stripe
Where the card details go
Who sees the card number
the card form is served by the gateway, so card details never reach the shop
What is stored on the server
orders and customer records for as long as you host with us, backups for thirty days
Who can log in to the server
you grant it per request and every login is recorded with who, when and why
A scope statement, the platform configuration and the scan results
a scope statement, a network diagram and the most recent scan
The week your year is made
Raise the limits a week ahead and rehearse the checkout under load
A shop that falls over on the busiest Friday of the year does not get those orders back. So the work happens in October.
Before
- A dry run on a copy of the shop, at the traffic you expect
- A dry run on a copy of the shop, at the traffic you expect
- A dry run on a copy of the shop, at the traffic you expect
During
- Order rate watched, not just server load
- A named person reachable for the window
- Backups more often while the volume is high
After
- What slowed down, in writing, with numbers
- What actually hit the limits, so next year starts from a figure rather than a guess
- No upsell attached to the report
The part you use every week
Do it yourself, or ask us
Both are fine. Nothing here is behind a support ticket, and nothing here costs extra.
- Restore last night, or any night this month
- Make a staging copy and throw it away again
- Change the PHP version for one store only
- Add a mailbox, a redirect or a certificate
The control panel every shop gets: files, databases, mail and backups in one place.
Find a name for the shop
Before you move
The six questions we get asked
How long will my shop be down?
Around four hundred orders an hour on the smallest plan, and the plan page says what each one is built for.
Will my payment gateway still work?
The gateway needs the new address for its callbacks. We change it, and we test a live payment before the shop goes back on sale.
What happens if we get ten times the traffic?
We lift the limits for the day and watch it with you. You decide the date; it costs nothing on a plan of any size.
Who answers at nine on a Sunday evening?
A person answers between 9am and 6pm on weekdays, and an engineer is on call for anything that stops a shop taking orders.
What does it cost to leave?
Nothing, and there is no notice period.
Does the price go up at renewal?
Yes. We move the shop, the orders, the customers and the payment configuration, and nothing is switched over until you have seen it working.
Tell us what you sell and what you sell it with
Tell us what you run now and we will say plainly whether moving it is worth the trouble.
