How much does an e-commerce website cost in Canada?

E-commerce stores start from $2,000 for a fully custom store with up to 100 products, {{mobilePayment}} and card checkout, and delivery coordination. Larger stores with 1,000+ products, advanced filtering, and multi-vendor support invest $4,000-8,000.

Shopify or custom? What do you recommend?

For Canada, we recommend custom builds on Next.js — because local payment options on hosted platforms are often limited, monthly fees add up, and you can't customize checkout properly. Our custom stores are faster, cheaper long-term, and fully yours.

How does {{mobilePayment}} payment work?

Customers select M-Pesa at checkout, enter their phone number, and receive an automatic STK push. Payment is confirmed instantly and the order is processed automatically. No screenshots, no manual verification.

Can I manage inventory and orders from my phone?

Yes. Full admin dashboard on mobile — add products, update stock, process orders, and check revenue reports. Get push notifications for every new order.

The Problem

Challenges E-commerce Businesses Face Online

These are the problems costing you customers every day. A generic website cannot solve them.

Marketplace Commissions Are Eating Your Margins

Jumia, Kilimall, and Amazon take 10-25% commission on every sale. On a KES 5,000 product, that's up to KES 1,250 gone. Multiply that by hundreds of orders and you're building their business, not yours.

You Don't Own Your Customer Data

Selling on marketplaces in Canada means you can't email your customers, retarget them, or build loyalty. They're the marketplace's customers, not yours. When the marketplace changes its rules, your business is at their mercy.

Your Current Site Doesn't Convert

You built a Shopify or WooCommerce store but it loads slowly, the checkout is confusing, and mobile users abandon at 80%. A bad e-commerce experience is worse than no e-commerce at all.

Payment and Delivery Are Still Manual

Confirming M-Pesa payments by screenshot, coordinating delivery in Toronto via WhatsApp, and tracking orders in spreadsheets. This works for 5 orders/day but collapses at 50. You need systems, not workarounds.

Why E-commerce Businesses in Canada Need a Professional Website

E-commerce businesses in Toronto, Ontario, and across Canada face unique challenges that generic website templates cannot address. The Canada market demands local expertise — from CAD (C$) pricing displays to local payment integrations and SEO optimized for how customers in Canada actually search. EliteTeQ specializes in e-commerce web design that converts Canada visitors into paying customers.

Whether you operate in Toronto or serve clients across Ontario, your website must load fast on local networks, display prices in C$, and rank when someone in Canada searches for e-commerce services. Our e-commerce websites are built from the ground up for the Canada market — not adapted from a foreign template.
