We can offer the service in two versions, you decide which version suits you best, and we do the rest.

End User
We build, customize, and tailor the look of KShop to fit in with your corporate identity, and add the first 20 products to your online shop. When you decide it's time to start trading, we visit your premises, provide one-on-one training, provide you with a printed manual, and you will be ready to start running your online business, all from the comfort of your own PC/mac and web browser.

You don't need any web design or html coding skills to be able to run your online store.

Fully Managed
We build, customize, and tailor the look of KShop to fit in with your corporate identity, and run your online business for you on a "drop-shipping" basis. Your customers place an order, conduct the transaction, and we receive the order details. We then forward on the order and despach details to you, and then you process the order and despach. We also add new products and categories to your online shop as and when you need them.

We recommend the Fully-Managed option if you are totally new to PCs or the internet and have no previous experience of PC use.

*The use of PayPal as a secure and convenient method of accepting online payments is currently the cheapest and most widely used method of online payment processing for small businesses web sites.
To be able to receive payments from most debit / credit cards requires the client to have a PayPal Premier or PayPal Business Account. A standard free PayPal account will only accept payments from other PayPal accounts.
We regret that we cannot normally setup the client’s PayPal account remotely, as this requires disclosure of the client’s personal credit card and bank account information. However, we are more than happy to assist in this process, or alternatively, arrangements can be made for a meeting to arrange this together.
However, we must stress that the administration, security, and management of the PayPal account is the responsibilty of the client.

Not ready to start trading online, but require a POS (point of sale) solution? - No problem!

KSPOS, the little sister to Kshop, can provide just that. The total online database system allows you to raise orders, create customer accounts, and generate invoices all from your web browser.
