Questions about ecommerce development in NYC

How much does ecommerce website development cost in NYC?

Shopify setup starts from $1,000. A custom store is $5,000 fixed for features agreed in writing. ERP connections, complex business rules and portals are quoted as a web app from $12,000. I confirm the exact scope before work starts.

When is a custom store worth building?

A custom store can suit a distinct storefront and purchase flow with features agreed in writing. Shopify setup from $1,000 fits a standard catalog and checkout. Application requirements such as ERP connections, complex rules and portals are scoped as a web app from $12,000.

What can I sell through a custom store?

You can sell digital products or physical goods, with the catalog and fulfilment flow agreed in scope. My Tattoo Academy platform sells tattoo courses in Portuguese with checkout and student access. Inventory, shipping and physical fulfilment rules are defined separately for your store.

Can the store handle inventory, shipping and order updates?

Yes, for the product types, stock rules and delivery regions agreed in the quote. I define the source of inventory data and the order states first; warehouse systems, carrier APIs and catalog migrations need their own assessment.

Who owns checkout, and are payment fees included?

You own the payment-provider account, and its fees are separate. The integration runs in your account, with your products and order records. Hosting and other paid services are also identified before the build.

What is outside the store scope?

Product sourcing, fulfilment operations, marketplace payouts and ongoing catalog entry are outside the standard store scope. ERP connections, complex business rules and portals are quoted as a web app from $12,000. I do not promise sales volume; ongoing care is separate.
