Solutions
I prefer a custom-coded store. WooCommerce and PrestaShop, two widely used open-source platforms with no license fees that can be extended with modules or plugins (free or paid), are still good alternatives for a standard catalog. The right choice depends on your catalog and the way you work.
Recommended
The solution I prefer, priced on quote
I build your store around the way you sell: checkout flow, pricing rules, customer accounts, sales between users. A lightweight store, with no unnecessary modules, like the TCGDeal marketplace shown below.
Ideal if:
The ecommerce plugin for WordPress
Your store and your content pages (about, news, tips) live in the same tool, with the WordPress interface, which is easy to pick up.
Ideal if:
A solution built entirely for selling online
Created in France, PrestaShop is designed for commerce first: it comes with many catalog and sales features out of the box.

Payment and shipping
A customer who can’t find their payment method, or who discovers shipping costs too late, often abandons their cart. Both need to be planned from the start.
Bancontact is the payment card most Belgians use: for a store that targets Belgium, it’s a must.
Clear shipping costs, shown before payment, and options suited to your products and your customers.
Day-to-day management
You run your store from its dashboard. Training on how to manage your store is included, to help you with these day-to-day tasks.
Add your products with their photos, descriptions, prices, and variants (sizes, colors…), organized by category. An existing catalog can be imported from a CSV file.
Stock updates with every order. A sold-out product can be flagged or hidden, and you can get an alert when stock runs low.
Track every order, change its status (paid, shipped…), handle refunds, and look up each customer’s history.
Promo codes, promotions, and sales statistics: everything you need to bring your store to life and track what works.
Would you rather delegate technical updates, backups, and small improvements? Website maintenance takes care of it, at €50 excl. VAT per hour or €500 excl. VAT per year.
Legal framework
Selling online to consumers comes with specific rules, drawn from the Belgian Code of Economic Law and EU law. Here are the essentials, so you can prepare your project with peace of mind.
Consumers generally have 14 days to cancel their purchase, without having to give a reason. You must inform them of this right and provide a withdrawal form. There are exceptions, for example for personalized or perishable products. Goods sold to consumers are also covered by a two-year legal guarantee of conformity.

An online store starts at €2,700 excl. VAT with PrestaShop or WooCommerce. This price includes building the store (product catalog, cart, payment, and order tracking), launch, hosting and a domain name for the first year, plus training on how to manage your store. A fully custom-coded store, designed around the way you sell, is priced on quote. The final price depends on the number of products, the features, and the content to add: it’s set in a free quote. On top of that, plan for the payment provider’s fee, which is taken from your sales.
I prefer a custom-coded store: it follows exactly the way you sell (checkout flow, pricing rules, customer accounts, sales between users) and stays lightweight, with no unnecessary modules. WooCommerce and PrestaShop are still good alternatives for a standard catalog: WooCommerce, the WordPress online store plugin, if you want your store and a content site in one place; PrestaShop, built entirely for online retail, if your catalog has lots of products and variants. We choose together during the discovery call, before the quote.
Yes. Payments go through a payment provider connected to your store: together, we pick one that offers Bancontact and credit and debit cards, based on your needs and its fees. The account is opened in your company’s name, and the provider charges a fee on transactions.
Typically, allow 3–4 weeks. The timeline depends mostly on the number of products to add, the features, and when your content is ready (photos, descriptions, terms and conditions of sale); the exact timeline is given in the quote. A more complex platform, such as a marketplace, has no standard timeline: it’s set in the quote, depending on the project.
Their legal content is your responsibility: have them drafted or reviewed by a lawyer, your trade association, or your accountant. On my end, I add them to the store, make sure customers accept them before paying, and set up the order confirmation emails.
Yes. You add products, change prices, track inventory, and process orders from your store’s dashboard. Training on how to manage your store is included. For updates and improvements, maintenance can take over (€50 excl. VAT per hour, or €500 excl. VAT per year).
