website with shopping cart

  • There's a new product on the market called Shopify. For the techies out there, it's a next-gen remotely hosted shopping cart system, built on Ruby on Rails, with lots of AJAX functionality thrown in. For the non-techies, it's a sturdy system that's very easy to use, and has a great-looking back-end.

    It's free to use, and they simply take a comission on everything you sell, of around 3% I think. The whole thing is hosted, so you'd have no hosting costs, and it comes with a few templates too. I've been playing around with it for a while now, and it looks and works very well... Considering getting into bespoke designs for it myself!! ;o)

    Have a look here: https://www.shopify.com

    I use the MrSite shopping cart and from what i can tell it works pretty well. Would recommend it. It depends how advanced you need it to be.

    Shopify looks good and it is free, has anyone used it?

    Can it be used in £ Sterling?
    :beer:
  • Haven't used Shopify on a live site, but have been playing with it for testing purposes. It can be used in £ sterling, though the payment gateways are somewhat limited at present (they do allow Chronopay, who are European, tho)...
