Webshops that generate revenue
We do not build a digital catalogue but a sales system: a fast shopping experience, Hungarian payment, invoicing and shipping integrations, and automated back-office processes. The source code is yours.

Sound familiar?
Does any of these sound familiar?
- The webshop looks good, but buyers abandon their carts at checkout.
- The product search finds nothing, and the filters are slow and inaccurate.
- After every order you issue the invoice and ship the parcel by hand.
- The site is barely usable on mobile, and Google does not rank it well.
- You sell in several places, but your stock is not in sync.
- You have to call a developer for every small change because the admin is complicated.
A well-built webshop does not expect you to adapt to it: it makes things simpler for your buyers and your own team.
Types of webshops
What webshops do we build?
WooCommerce webshop
A WordPress-based store for small and medium-sized companies, with a custom theme, a simplified checkout, and Hungarian payment and invoicing integration. Ideal if you already have a WordPress site or want to manage the content yourself.
Custom-built webshop
A Laravel and Nuxt-based store for larger catalogues and traffic, with multiple languages and currencies, built to scale.
B2B webshop and wholesale platform
A closed, login-based system with per-partner pricing and catalogues and an ERP connection.
Redesigning and migrating an existing webshop
From Shopify, Magento or an outdated WooCommerce, keeping search rankings and without data loss.
Typical situations
When does a new webshop help?
Redesigning a template webshop
- Starting point: hundreds of products, a complicated checkout, slow loading.
- Solution: a custom theme, a one-page checkout, payment and invoicing integration, image optimisation, a new product search.
What to expect A faster site, simpler shopping and higher conversion.
B2B wholesale
- Starting point: orders by email, pricing in Excel, stock that is not real-time.
- Solution: a B2B webshop with per-partner pricing, an ERP connection and order tracking.
What to expect Manual order processing reduced to a fraction, and fewer ordering errors.
International expansion
- Starting point: the webshop works only in Hungarian and in one currency.
- Solution: multiple languages and currencies, per-country SEO, international and local payment methods.
What to expect Foreign buyers served, managed from one system.
When custom
A custom webshop or an off-the-shelf platform?
We recommend custom development if:
- your catalogue or traffic exceeds what off-the-shelf platforms can handle;
- you need special payment, invoicing or shipping integrations;
- you need a custom buying journey, B2B pricing or a configurator;
- monthly fees and transaction commissions are too high in the long run.
In short The system adapts to your processes, and there is no platform commission.
An off-the-shelf platform (Shopify, Shoprenter) may be enough if:
- you are starting with a few products and want to launch quickly;
- there is no custom business logic or integration;
- the budget is smaller, or you only want to test the market.
In short A faster and cheaper start. If that is the better path, we will tell you.

Haldorádó
A frontend and UI refresh for one of Hungary’s largest fishing webshops. Both shoppers and the company’s internal processes rely on the site, so we had to combine custom and proven solutions.
Frequently asked questions about webshops
-
A CMS-based (WooCommerce) webshop typically takes 4–6 weeks, a custom-built one 2–4 months. We set the exact schedule once the specification is approved.
-
It depends on the complexity of the project and the depth of the integrations. Indicative ranges: a WooCommerce-based webshop about HUF 900,000 – 2,500,000, a custom (Laravel and Nuxt-based) webshop from about HUF 2,000,000. We give an itemised, fixed-price quote with no hidden costs.
-
Hungarian payment gateways (for example SimplePay, Barion, OTP) and international ones (for example Stripe, PayPal), as well as cash on delivery and bank transfer.
-
For example GLS, MPL, DPD, Packeta, Foxpost and parcel lockers, with label printing, tracking and automatic notifications from the webshop admin.
-
Yes, keeping your search rankings (with 301 redirects) and without data loss: products, categories, customers and order history.
-
You do, together with the database. You can move it freely to another server or developer.
-
Yes, to ERP, CRM, warehouse and invoicing systems (for example Billingo, Számlázz.hu). If there is no ready API, we build a middleware layer.
-
If an off-the-shelf platform serves you well, we recommend it: the start is faster and cheaper. Custom development makes sense when the limits of the platform already hold back growth, automation or integrations.
-
We build every webshop from the design stage with product structured data, clean technical SEO and a logical structure, so you are more likely to appear as a source in ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude answers too.
-
After launch there is a warranty period set out in the contract; after that, on request, we keep the system running with a support package: checkout and product page optimisation based on the data, performance monitoring, security updates, A/B tests and seasonal campaigns.

The first step is a conversation
In a free 30-minute call we look at what your webshop needs to do and tell you which solution fits. If an off-the-shelf platform is enough, we will tell you that too.
