eCommerce Solutions for Small Businesses

While we can't offer our eCommerce solutions for small businesses as part of our $45 per month service, we do offer four cost effective eCommerce solutions to help your small business sale products and services online. We recommend starting off small and then working your way up through the different eCommerce solutions as your small business grows. Our eCommerce solutions offer step-up pricing allowing your small business to grow to the next level without losing your previous investment. Stated simply, if you buy the $300 package and then need to upgrade into the $600 package, you will only owe us the difference of $300. We will never charge you the full price for the second package when you are already a Green Apple Webs eCommerce customer.

Please Note: All the eCommerce solutions below assume you have already obtained pictures of your product(s), descriptions, pricing, shipping, sales tax, etc. for each item. If not, you will be asked to provide this information to Green Apple Webs before we will begin building your eCommerce solution.

eCommerce / Online Store Solution #1 = $300

This eCommerce solution is for small businesses that want to "test the waters" by selling a few products or services online. We will begin by creating an online store front for your small business with up to 10 products / services / subscriptions which your customers can purchase using either a credit card or direct payment from their bank account. This solution will use PayPal as the merchant gateway and your customers will not have to sign up for PayPal in order to pay with their credit card. There are three requirements for this solution.

      - First, you must have a PayPal Web Payments Standard Account (Free).
      - Second, you must link your PayPal account to your Business Bank Account to transfer the
           money from PayPal to your account (Free).

           payment buttons on your behalf. (PayPal has a feature which allows you to create us an account
           that keeps your banking information secure.)
