Online Shop FAQs – Your E-Commerce Questions Answered

Thinking about starting an online shop? Find answers to the most common questions South African businesses ask about online stores, including costs, online payments, delivery, product management, security, mobile shopping and getting customers to your website.

The cost depends on how many products you sell, the design you need and the functionality required. A basic online shop can be built for a small business, while larger stores may require additional features such as product variations, stock management, customer accounts, subscriptions or specialised integrations.

You should also budget for ongoing costs such as domain registration, hosting, payment transaction fees and optional marketing or advertising.

The important thing is to build an online shop around your actual business needs rather than paying for features you don't need.

The pricing below is provided as a general cost guide to give you an idea of what you can expect to invest in an online shop.

Every business is different, and several factors can influence the final price, including the number of products, design requirements, payment gateways, delivery options, integrations, custom functionality and SEO requirements.

1. Small Business / Farmers Market Shop

Approximately R3,500 – R4,500

Ideal for a small business, home business or farmers market stall with fewer than 20 products that simply wants to get online and start selling.

2. Medium-Sized Online Shop

Approximately R7,500 – R12,500

Suitable for an established business wanting to sell up to 100 products or more, but that does not require an extensive SEO marketing campaign.

This option can provide a professional online shopping experience while keeping the initial investment affordable.

3. Fully Customised E-Commerce Website

From R25,000+

Designed for businesses requiring a more advanced online selling solution, including custom website design, POS integrations, advanced functionality and SEO setup.

The final price will depend on the specific integrations, functionality and requirements of the business.

Important

These prices are indicative only and are intended to provide a general cost guide. A detailed quotation will be provided once we understand your products, business requirements and the functionality your online shop needs.

 

Your customers can pay securely online using popular South African payment solutions. Depending on the payment provider you choose, you can offer options such as credit and debit cards, Instant EFT, QR payments and other local payment methods.

For example, Payfast integrates with platforms such as WooCommerce and supports numerous South African payment methods.

Payment providers normally charge a transaction fee when a payment is made, so you don't necessarily need to pay a separate monthly payment-gateway fee. The exact fees depend on the provider and your agreement with them.

How will I deliver orders to my customers?

Your online shop can calculate or display delivery options during checkout, depending on where the customer lives, the size or weight of the order and the delivery service you use.

You can offer:

  • Nationwide courier delivery
  • Local delivery
  • Collection from your premises
  • Free delivery above a certain order value
  • Different delivery rates based on location or order value

Courier services such as BOBGO.co.za can be integrated into e-commerce workflows, allowing delivery charges to be incorporated into the checkout process.

You decide where you deliver, what you charge and which courier you use.

No.

Once your online shop has been set up, everyday tasks are designed to be straightforward. You can manage things such as:

  • Adding and editing products
  • Changing prices
  • Uploading product images
  • Managing stock
  • Processing orders
  • Creating discount coupons
  • Checking customer information
  • Updating order statuses

For example, WooCommerce provides tools for managing products and orders from its administration area.

You don't need to be a programmer to run your store.

Yes.

With WooCommerce, for example, you can use the mobile app to view and manage orders, manage products, check sales information and update your store from your phone.

That means you don't have to be sitting at your office computer every time you receive an order.

You can be at home, at work, travelling or even away from your business and still keep an eye on your online shop.

Having an online shop doesn't automatically mean customers will find it.

Your shop needs to be promoted and optimised so potential customers can discover your products.

This can include:

Can be done for FREE with paid options added later. 

  • Google Business Profile
  • Facebook and Instagram
  • Social media advertising
  • Email marketing
  • WhatsApp marketing
  • Content and blog marketing
  • Links from other websites

Mostly involve cost: - These setups normally starts from R2500 with a monthly costs from R6500+ to be affective.  

  • Google Search and SEO
  • Google Ads
  • Product advertising

 

The goal is to get your products in front of people who are actually looking for what you sell.

Yes. Security needs to be considered at several levels — your website, hosting, payment processing and customer information.

With WooCommerce on Infinitech Web, the hosting environment includes SSL, firewall protection, malware scanning, brute-force protection, anti-bot protection and DDoS protection. Infinitech Web also provides daily backups of website files and databases, with backups stored separately from the website.

For payments, customers are directed through the selected payment gateway, such as a South African payment provider, rather than your website storing their card details.

We also recommend keeping WordPress, WooCommerce, themes and plugins up to date and using strong passwords and two-factor authentication where available.

The result: your online shop has multiple layers of protection rather than relying on one security feature.

WooCommerce provides built-in stock management, allowing you to keep track of products and quantities available.

You can set stock quantities, mark products as out of stock, manage product variations such as different sizes or colours, and configure what happens when stock runs low.

When an online order is placed, WooCommerce can automatically adjust the available stock.

This is particularly useful for South African businesses selling physical products because you don't need to manually check every product after every online sale.

As your business grows, WooCommerce can also be extended with more advanced inventory, POS and accounting integrations.

The process can be largely automated.

A typical WooCommerce order works like this:

Customer places order → Payment is processed → Order is recorded → Customer receives confirmation → You receive the order → Order is packed → Courier/collection arranged → Order is completed.

WooCommerce keeps the customer's order information, products purchased, payment information, delivery details and order status together. Orders can also be managed from the WooCommerce mobile app.

This means you don't need to manually write down every order received through your website.

You can also configure automatic emails to customers for things such as order confirmation, payment confirmation, processing and completion.

WooCommerce provides tools for managing refunds and order status, including full or partial refunds.

However, your business still needs its own clearly defined returns, refunds and cancellation policy.

For a South African online shop, your policies should be prepared with applicable South African consumer-protection requirements in mind. The Consumer Protection Act establishes standards around consumer information and consumer transactions.

Your website should clearly explain:

  • When products can be returned
  • Who pays return delivery costs
  • What happens with damaged or incorrect products
  • Refund procedures
  • Cancellation procedures
  • Exchanges
  • Any applicable exclusions

WooCommerce provides the technical tools to process the transaction, but your business's actual policies and legal obligations still need to be properly addressed.

This is an important question for any South African online business.

Your website should be structured with applicable South African requirements in mind, including areas such as:

  • Consumer Protection Act (CPA)
  • Electronic Communications and Transactions Act (ECTA)
  • Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA)
  • Terms and conditions
  • Privacy policy
  • Returns and refund policy
  • Delivery information
  • Business and contact information
  • Appropriate customer consent and communication practices

The CPA specifically addresses consumer information, consumer transactions and unfair business practices.

Important: Infinitech Web can build the technical functionality and pages required for an online shop, but legal compliance ultimately depends on the individual business, its products, processes and policies. Legal advice should be obtained where necessary.

Yes.

One of the advantages of using WordPress + WooCommerce is that you don't have to start with an extremely complicated online shop.

You can start with a relatively simple store and add functionality as the business grows.

For example, you can later add:

  • More products
  • Product variations
  • Discount codes
  • Customer accounts
  • Subscriptions
  • Multiple payment methods
  • Courier integrations
  • Accounting integrations
  • POS integration
  • Advanced stock management
  • WhatsApp functionality
  • SEO
  • Google Shopping
  • Email marketing
  • International sales

The hosting can also be upgraded as the requirements of the website increase. Infinitech Web WooCommerce hosting provides different server configurations and includes features such as Redis, Elasticsearch, PHP-FPM, OPcache, CDN, staging, caching and Website Turbo.

You don't have to build everything on day one.

An online shop isn't simply a website that gets built once and then forgotten.

There are several components working together:

WordPress + WooCommerce + Theme + Plugins + Hosting + Payment Gateway + Email + Courier/Shipping + Database

If one of those components develops a problem, it can potentially affect the shop.

That's why reliable hosting, backups and support are important.

Infinitech Web provides WooCommerce-focused hosting with 24/7 support, automatic backups for 7 days, SSL, security features and WooCommerce-specific optimisation.

At Infinitech Web, you also have a local South African web development and hosting company available to assist with your website rather than being left to figure everything out yourself.

There can be costs outside the initial website development — and these should be explained upfront.

Typical ongoing costs can include:

Domain: Annual domain registration/renewal
Hosting: Your hosting package
Payment gateway: Transaction fees charged by your payment provider
Courier: Delivery charges
Premium plugins: Where specific functionality requires a paid plugin
Marketing: Optional SEO, Google Ads, Facebook/Instagram advertising, etc.

For example, payment gateways generally charge according to their own pricing structure and transaction arrangements.

The important thing is that hosting, website development, payment processing and courier costs are separate things and should not be confused with one another.

It should.

Infinitech Web only develop responsive websites. 

Your online shop should be designed as a responsive website, meaning the layout adapts to desktop computers, tablets and mobile phones.

This is particularly important because customers can browse products, add products to their cart and complete checkout from their phones.

WooCommerce also provides a mobile app that allows store owners to manage products and orders from iOS and Android devices.

So there are actually two separate mobile considerations:

Customer: Can I shop easily from my phone?

Business owner: Can I manage my shop from my phone?

A properly configured WooCommerce store as you get from Infinitech Web can support both.

Yes.

WooCommerce can be configured for businesses that want to sell internationally.

Depending on your requirements, this can include:

  • International delivery
  • Different currencies
  • International payment methods
  • Different tax arrangements
  • Country-specific shipping
  • Multiple delivery zones
  • International customers

However, international selling introduces additional considerations around tax, customs, duties, payment processing and shipping, so these need to be configured according to the countries you intend to sell to.
