Why do I need an online shop?

Certainly, traditional shops are losing their market share to online shops. E-commerce has a huge potential to expand your customer base as well as your company's revenue. In addition, they can operate 24/7 and significantly reduce operating expenses.

Why do I need a custom e-commerce solution when I can use eBay or Yahoo! Store?

One of the most important reasons to create your own online shop is to give your customer an image of professionalism about your business. Have you ever seen large businesses, such as Wal-mart, use an eBay shop to sell their goods? Yahoo! and eBay shops suggest that the shop owner is an individual seller and consequently customers will think twice before buying.

In addition, a custom online shop design solution also gives you more control over the sales and marketing process. For example, you can give the system custom features such as giving all Hong Kong residents a 10% discount on electronic items or having an additional 25% discount on all items every Tuesday night.

Finally, a custom online shop design solution allows you to use different online payment gateways. While eBay and Yahoo! stores only support big names such as PayPal and First Data, we support numerous other online payment gateways including local ones.
