Bordales Technologies
Ecommerce website design for South African businesses — WooCommerce stores with PayFast, Peach Payments, and mobile-first checkout. From R18,000. Fixed price.
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.
Every ecommerce site we build uses WooCommerce — the most widely supported ecommerce platform in South Africa, with full PayFast and Peach Payments integration, mobile-first checkout, and product management you can handle without technical help.
We've built stores for clothing retailers, industrial parts suppliers, homeware businesses, and food brands across South Africa.
Full WooCommerce build — custom theme, product catalogue, PayFast and Peach Payments, and mobile-first checkout. From R18,000.
SA's most popular payment gateways integrated correctly — card payments, EFT, instant EFT, and QR code payment.
Shopify store setup for businesses that prefer the Shopify platform — theme customisation, SA payment gateways, and product setup.
Product page SEO, category page optimisation, and structured data for ecommerce — helping your store rank for product searches.
WooCommerce starter store (up to 50 products, PayFast, full SEO): R18,000–R25,000. WooCommerce medium store (50–200 products, multiple categories, blog): R25,000–R40,000. Custom ecommerce (integrations, custom checkout, subscriptions): R40,000–R80,000. Shopify setup: R8,000–R20,000 depending on customisation. All prices fixed, excluding VAT.

The problem
Many business websites look fine on the surface but do not explain the offer clearly, do not guide visitors, and do not support search visibility. A proper website needs structure, speed, trust, content and action.
Bordales designs websites as business systems: every page has a role, every call-to-action has a purpose, and every section supports credibility, enquiries and long-term SEO growth.

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.
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.
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.
