You can also share a link to your live online product or service catalogue or ask us to extract it from your existing website if applicable. Excel or CSV file links will also be accepted. But really, all we need here is just a number which is equal to the minimum products that you will upload till date.
What Kind of Products or Services will you sell on the website? If you're just starting out, we advise you to just tick only the important options as ticking other options for complexed products can significantly increase the project price. You can always add options later as we gradually grow and raise another such request at that time as per your comfortability. We recommend starting small and gradually growing from there, however, if you're an established brand, selling all different soughts of products, then you may choose all the relevant options as in this case it would be generally advisable to know any such complexed needs before project start so we can scale smoother in future.

Pricing, Taxation & Invoicing Would you like to enable Tax rates and calculations on your website?
Will you enter product prices including or excluding tax? e.g. Product Price entered by you is 100 excluding tax of 18%. This means that you base product price is 100 and the total price of your product would be 100 + 18(tax)= 118 after charging tax.

Would you consider subscribing for an automated but expensive third party integration (starting from US$ 17/month) or do you wish for us to to set-up a customized tax solution fit for your custom needs? (Optional)
This is a very tricky question. If you don't know the answer to this then just avoid filling this out. Although, its important to at least let us know the important tax information which applies to the location your store is located and registered in. Please also be advised that we are not experts in the field of international taxation and may or may not know different tax laws and regulations in your home country or area, but we still have a pretty darn good idea simply due to our immense experience of working globally. Overall, you may have to consult a tax specialist in your area or make us have a chat with him by sharing their contact so we can implement this for you. We say this only to be on the safe side as some countries have some rather strict tax invoicing regulations and complexed taxing structures and tax names that can differ between states, cities and Zip-Codes too. We can only build you an expert online tax solution provided all relevant information is correctly provided to us. In most cases, Tax solutions are pretty easy so just type it out and let us do the heavy lifting for you to get you up and running.

Have you drafted a refund policy for your online store?

Some common elements of a refund policy for an online store include
Eligibility, Time frame, Return shipping info and costs, Condition of returned items, Refund process or docs required of any, Exchange and store credit in exchange of refunds, Final Sale items which cannot be returned or refunded, etc.

Content and Language Localization Hidden
Do you need a multilingual website? A multilingual website is one which has at least 2 or more language options to display its content on back end or front end, whereas, localization means keeping only the single home country language (where your store is located) which can be English or others used to display content on back end or front end.
Do you need a Multilingual website or/and website Localization services? A Multilingual Website is a website that can be viewed in multiple languages(at least 2 or more). This means that the website's content, including text, images, and videos(in rare cases), is translated into different languages to make it accessible to a wider audience.
Website Localization , on the other hand, refers to the process of adapting a website to a specific locale, culture, or region. It's more than just translation and includes adapting to the local language, currency, date format, time zones, etc. Website localization is used to ensure that the website's content is appropriate and relevant to the target audience.
In summary, a multilingual website is able to display different languages, while a website localization is adapted to target specific regions, cultures or locales.
In terms of practical use examples, a multilingual website is useful for businesses that want to reach an international audience or customers who speak different languages. For example, a company that sells products or services globally, would benefit from having a multilingual website to allow customers to view and purchase products in their native language. Similarly, a website for a tourist destination that attracts international visitors would also benefit from having a multilingual website.
Website localization, on the other hand, is useful for businesses that want to target specific regions or cultures. For example, a company that sells products online, would benefit from website localization to show prices in the local currency, display the appropriate taxes, and offer shipping options that are relevant to the user's location. Similarly, a website for a local event or promotion would also benefit from website localization to make sure that the information is relevant and easily understood by the target audience.
In terms of when to use each service, it really depends on your target audience and the goals of your website. If your target audience is international, then a multilingual website would be a great solution. If your target audience is specific to a region or culture, then website localization would be a better option. In some cases, you may want to use both services together to reach a global audience, but also make sure that the website is relevant and easily understood by users in specific regions or cultures.
What kind of Multilingual website or/and website Localization services do you need? Please choose only the feature absolutely needed as choosing all of these will significantly raise the cost of this project.
