— Online store
Online store and ecommerce website design for Auckland businesses
You want an online store, not just a website with a contact form. This is a real ecommerce website: a product catalogue, a cart, and checkout that takes actual card payments. Built as an add-on to your Ethelium site for small businesses across Auckland and the rest of New Zealand who want to sell online without hiring a developer or learning a separate store platform.
What's included
- Full cart and checkout. Customers add products, enter their card, and pay — no redirect to a marketplace or a third-party checkout page.
- Real card payments. Processed through Stripe, the same payment infrastructure large retailers use. Money lands in your own account.
- Up to 50 products. Enough for most small catalogues — each with photos, a price, and a description you control.
- One site, not two. The store lives on your existing website. No second login, no separate subscription to a store builder.
- You own it. The store and everything in it — product data, photos, orders — belongs to your business.
- No setup fee. The add-on is $24.50/mo on top of the base website plan, billed monthly.
How the pricing works
The online store is an add-on to the base website plan — it isn't sold on its own, because a store needs pages, hosting, and a domain underneath it.

+ Online store

A real online store: Sherwood Pottery
75 years of pottery, now selling online
Sherwood Pottery is a 75-year-old Auckland studio with 35 handmade products. It now runs as a full online store taking real Stripe card payments. The owner updates the catalogue herself through a Google Sheet — no code, no developer, no waiting on anyone to change a price or add a new piece.

Do I need the base website plan too?
Yes. The online store is an add-on to the $25/mo base website plan — it needs a site, hosting, and a domain to sit on. Total for both is $49.50/mo.
How many products can I list?
Up to 50, each with its own photos, price, and description. Sherwood Pottery currently lists 35 of its 35 products in that same 50-product allowance.
Can I actually take card payments, or is this a demo?
Real payments. Checkout runs on Stripe and money goes to your own account, the same as it does for Sherwood Pottery today.
Is there a setup fee or contract?
No setup fee. It's billed monthly with no long-term contract.
