South African ecommerce grew by over 30% since 2020 — but most local online stores lose sales to poor mobile experience, slow loading, and complicated checkout flows. We build ecommerce stores that convert.

FAQs
Questions you probably have.
How much does an ecommerce website cost in South Africa?
A WooCommerce online store in South Africa costs R18,000–R40,000 for a professionally built store. Very cheap options under R10,000 exist but typically use slow templates with poor mobile experience. Bordales Technologies charges R18,000 for a properly built WooCommerce store with PayFast, product management, and full SEO.
What payment gateway should I use for my South African online store?
PayFast is South Africa's most widely used payment gateway — affordable, reliable, and familiar to SA shoppers. Peach Payments is strong for larger volumes and international payments. Ozow is popular for instant EFT. We recommend PayFast for most small to medium stores, with Peach Payments for businesses above R500K/month in online transactions.
Is WooCommerce or Shopify better for South African businesses?
WooCommerce is better for most SA businesses — lower ongoing costs (no platform fee), full control, and better PayFast/Peach integration. Shopify charges 0.5–2% transaction fees, which adds up at volume. We build on WooCommerce by default but support Shopify for businesses that prefer it.
