How we got here
We started by running one shop badly and learning why, then by running other people’s properly. Independently owned, no outside investor, and the same people on the platform today as five years ago.
The hardware
Two United Kingdom sites. The hardware is ours, racked by us, so there is nobody in between to chase.
If we ever stopped
Nothing. The shop keeps serving from the old address until the new one is signed off, so a customer mid-checkout is never interrupted.
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.
