Simple.- You need a domain name (e.g. www.mywebsitesname.net), or an idea of one that we can register for you; and...
- and products to sell.
Though not required, we highly recommend the purchase of a
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) certificate for your Shop a la Cart e-commerce website, which allows for secure transactions to take place between your customer and the website. Many of your customers will look for this before placing an order.
Finally, to process credit card orders, you will need a merchant account. If you are an existing retail business, you can use your own established merchant account. If you are new to retail, we recommend merchant services from
Authorize.net, which can be directly integrated into your cart.
That's it. When you're ready, or if you need help with any of these steps, contact us to begin.
