Many companies have a shop on Shopify or WooCommerce. Few have a shop that scales without a rewrite.

If any of the below sounds familiar, you're in the right place.

✗ The shop slows down at peak hours — Black Friday is a disaster, not a success

✗ Every design change needs a developer, and costs grow exponentially

✗ Your SaaS platform (Shoper, Idosell) doesn't allow the custom checkout you need

✗ Integration with ERP / WMS / accounting is a constant rescue mission of macros and webhooks

✗ Competitors have faster load times, better UX, higher conversions — your shop has fallen behind

✗ You're afraid of migrating, because last time you moved from PrestaShop to WooCommerce and lost your SEO

Pricing

The price is neither a secret nor magic

The ranges in the calculator are based on 20+ e-commerce projects completed over the last 5 years. Every price accounts for:

01|ARCHITECTURE

A stack-first decision

A 2-week analysis phase — mapping integrations, choosing the architecture (headless / monolith), auditing the existing shop if it's a migration. Without this, the shop ends up costing 2× more along the way

02|PERFORMANCE

Scalability included in the price

Next.js + CDN, ISR (incremental static regeneration), a payment gateway matched to scale. The shop withstands a 100× traffic spike without infrastructure changes.

03|OWNERSHIP

Code in your own repository

From day 1 the code is on GitHub/GitLab under your account. No vendor lock-in — you can change agency without rebuilding the shop from scratch.

The calculator below gives a range of ±20%. An exact quote follows the integration analysis and discovery phase.

Why us

Why Digital Vantage?

Here are concrete reasons companies chose Digital Vantage for their online shop.

MIGRATION

From a monolith to headless? Without losing SEO.

A phased migration plan that preserves URLs, 301 redirects, product data, and order history. Your Google rankings don't drop.

B2B

A B2B shop with custom logic? That's our everyday work.

Per-customer pricing, credit limits, ERP integrations (e.g. SAP), dedicated checkout flows. We've been doing this for 5 years.

SCALING

Shop working, but too slow? Scalable architecture as standard.

CDN, edge caching, lazy loading, Core Web Vitals 90+. The shop loads in 1 second, conversions grow by 15-30%.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

It depends on the architecture and integrations — which is why we built the online pricing calculator. In 3 minutes you'll get an indicative range matched to your needs. Realistically: a simple headless shop on a Shopify backend from CHF 15,000-25,000 net, a B2B shop with ERP integrations CHF 40,000-75,000, enterprise with a custom backend from CHF 100,000 upward. Check the calculator and come to a consultation with concrete questions.

Headless means the frontend (what the customer sees) is separated from the backend (product and order management). Benefits: faster loading (Core Web Vitals 90+), a custom checkout without platform limitations, the ability to change the backend without rebuilding the shop, better Google rankings. Headless makes sense when: you're planning to scale, you have custom integrations, or your current SaaS platform is holding you back. For a first shop with 50 products, headless can be overkill — in that case we'll honestly recommend a classic solution.

Yes, and it's one of our more common scenarios. The migration plan includes: preserving the URL structure (or one-to-one 301 redirects), importing products + photos + descriptions + categories, transferring order and customer history, validating indexing in Search Console before launch. Google rankings don't drop — they often improve thanks to better Core Web Vitals.

We integrate with: ERP (e.g. SAP), WMS, couriers (DPD, DHL and Swiss carriers), payments (Stripe and Swiss payment methods) and accounting software. Discovery verifies the feasibility of each integration — if something isn't on the list, we'll check whether an API exists.

30 days of stabilisation included in the project price. After that, we offer 3 levels of care:

  • Monitoring (from CHF 750/month) — uptime monitoring, alerts, a monthly performance and SEO report. No code changes.
  • Standard (from CHF 2,500/month) — as above + hotfixes by the next business day, monthly stack updates, 5h of development budget.
  • Premium (from CHF 6,000/month) — as above + 5 engineer-days per month, customisations, product expansions, hotfixes within 4h on business days.

You can also maintain the shop yourself — the code and documentation are yours from day 1.
