We design our ecommerce web design solutions using a combination of a mysql database and the programming language php. All our ecommerce sites encorporate a php shopping cart which is robust and very stable.

We don't use any of the 'out the box' solutions as offered by some design companies, we offer a custom solution, which means that the site can be designed to your wishes and our shopping cart software can be integrated into your own unique looking website.

Ecommerce Credit Card Processing Credit card processing related questions or how payments are made by clients online using credit cards are some of the most common we receive.

WebShop can be integrated with any 3rd party payment gateways such as Paypal, Worldpay, Nochex, CCBill, PSBill, Paysystems, Secure Trading, Barclays Epdq, HSBC and so on...

We generally recommend that you use Paypal or Worldpay, or if you have a epdq machine (credit card swipe machine) we can set up the payment page on a secure server which will enable you to accept orders and then process them yourself with your epdq machine.

Do I need any technical knowledge? You can run your own Ecommerce website with the minimum of technical knowledge, if you can fill out a form you can run an online shop.

We provide an admin area for your online shop, to allow you to add products and categories to your shop in a quick and easy manner.

Alternatively, if you prefer we can add all your products to your shop for you for a small additional cost.

Project cost does not include the creation .csv files for uploading information to a solution unless quoted.

Please note that the client is responsible for testing all aspects of any e-com or order online system to make sure that it meets their requirements and that it is working to their satisfaction.

Any alterations to code, navigation, upload requirements or addition of fields to the database other than those agreed at the outset of the build of the solution will be chargeable as extras.

Any payment system that requires Spoton dealing with the clients bank is not included in the cost due to the individual requirements of each bank which change on a regular basis.

When using a bank to clear e-com funds, there is a restriction placed by some banks as to how the security certificate can be used.

This can result in any one server being allowed to be used. This action by the bank restricts Spoton’s back up policy, which in short means that only one server can hold a security certificate.

This makes it impossible to provide the client with a fail safe back up that would have cut-in should there be a problem with the server that hosts the client site.

Spoton will make every effort to keep down time to a minimum but cannot be responsible for the amount of down time on any server or any loss of income to the client that may occur.
