COUNTER · Online store
Sell parts or products from your site.
If you sell anything physical — parts, filters, servicing kits — a small store turns an enquiry into a payment without a phone call. Deliberately small: this is a tidy product list, not a warehouse.
How we actually do it
An embedded cart on the static site, so the site itself stays fast and there is no platform subscription to carry. Card payments via Stripe straight to your account. Suits roughly 5-50 products with simple options. Said plainly: stock, dispatch and customer questions are ongoing work that lands on you, and it is the one thing on this list that adds a daily job rather than removing one. If you need real inventory, staff logins or hundreds of products, you want Shopify and we will tell you so.
What you actually get
- Products, options and stock on your existing site
- Card payments straight to your account
- No platform subscription
- Order notifications by email
What it costs
$699 one-off
Running a small online store in New Zealand: $50 – $130+ per month, every month, for the platform alone Ours is one payment of $699 plus roughly $20/month in transaction fees. Over three years that is the difference between about $2,500 and about $1,400. 1
Where it fits
Straight answers
Fair questions.
Should I do this?
Only if you already sell products and already handle dispatch. If you are hoping a store will create a new revenue stream on its own, it will not, and we would rather say that before you pay.
