E-commerce development and online stores

E-Commerce Development Services for Stores, Marketplaces & B2B Commerce.

Q: Which e-commerce platforms and technologies do you work with?

We work with platforms such as Shopify and WooCommerce as well as custom or headless e-commerce builds using Laravel, Next.js and modern storefront frameworks. The right choice depends on your catalogue size, integration needs, customisation level and budget.

Q: Can you integrate payment gateways, shipping providers and local tax rules?

Yes. We regularly integrate payment gateways such as Stripe, Razorpay and PayPal, connect shipping providers and logistics partners, and configure local tax rules so that checkout, invoicing and order fulfilment work smoothly in your target markets.

Q: Do you help migrate an existing e-commerce site to a new platform or custom build?

We can plan and execute e-commerce migrations, including product, customer and order data, URL and SEO redirects, and any required integrations. The goal is to move you to a more suitable platform or architecture while protecting your search rankings and existing customers.

Q: How do you handle performance, security and SEO for e-commerce development?

For e-commerce we pay special attention to page speed, secure payment flows, data protection and technical SEO. That includes using HTTPS everywhere, optimising images and assets, implementing sensible caching, and structuring pages and schema markup so that search engines can understand your products and categories.

Q: Do you provide ongoing support and optimisation for online stores and marketplaces?

Yes. After launch we can stay involved through an ongoing support and optimisation engagement, helping you iterate on UX, funnels, promotions, integrations and new features based on analytics and real customer behaviour.

Q: Can you connect our e-commerce platform with ERP, CRM or marketplaces like Amazon?

We can integrate your store with internal systems such as ERP and CRM as well as external marketplaces and sales channels through APIs, webhooks and data sync processes, so that inventory, pricing and orders stay in sync across platforms.

QalbIT delivers cloud-based e-commerce solutions for brands that need reliable online stores, multi-vendor marketplaces and B2B order portals. We focus on performance, SEO and conversion so your store can attract traffic, handle demand and grow revenue.

E-commerce overview

E-commerce development services for stores, marketplaces and B2B commerce

We help product, marketing and operations teams launch and optimise e-commerce experiences that feel fast, trustworthy and easy to buy from. Whether you are starting from zero or replacing a legacy store, we design around conversion, SEO and long-term maintainability.

When e-commerce development with QalbIT makes sense

You want to redesign or rebuild an underperforming online store to improve conversion and lifetime value.
You are planning a new D2C or B2B e-commerce channel and need a practical roadmap, not just a theme.
You want to launch or grow a multi-vendor marketplace with clear roles, commissions and payouts.
You need to migrate from an old platform to a modern, cloud-based e-commerce solution without losing SEO.
You prefer a senior, founder-led team instead of a generic theme customisation agency.

Outcomes we usually target for e-commerce teams

Store experiences that load quickly, work smoothly on mobile and build buyer trust.
Simplified buying flows that reduce friction in cart, checkout and account areas.
Scalable architecture and integrations that can handle promotions and seasonal peaks.
Cleaner product, pricing and catalogue structures that support marketing and merchandising.
Clear analytics and reporting so teams can see what drives revenue and where to optimise next.

For most e-commerce projects we start with a short discovery sprint to confirm target customers, product catalogue structure, key user journeys and platform choices before we commit to a build or migration plan.

What we build for e-commerce teams

E-commerce development capabilities across stores, marketplaces and B2B portals

From first store launch to complex B2B portals and multi-vendor marketplaces, we cover architecture, UX, integrations and the operational workflows your team depends on.

Custom online stores and storefront UX

Stores

Design and build product listing pages, product detail pages, carts and checkouts that are optimised for search, speed and conversion rather than just matching a default theme.

Multi-vendor marketplaces

Marketplaces

Implement vendor onboarding, catalogues, commissions, payouts and dispute flows so multiple sellers can operate on a single marketplace with clear rules.

B2B e-commerce portals and self-service

B2B commerce

Create account-based buying experiences with custom price lists, quotes, purchase approvals and repeat ordering for distributors, wholesalers and enterprise buyers.

Headless and API-first commerce

Architecture

Decouple your storefront from the backend using APIs so you can run fast frontends, mobile apps and kiosks on top of a single commerce engine.

Payments, tax and fulfilment integrations

Integrations

Integrate payment gateways, tax engines, shipping providers and ERPs so orders, inventory and invoices stay in sync across systems.

Performance, SEO and CRO improvements

Optimisation

Improve page speed, technical SEO, structured data and on-site experiments so your store can regain impressions and convert more of the traffic you already earn.
