Online Store Shopping Cart - Any suggestions Please
Hi All
I trust everyone is well.
Is there any update on the best way to build a shopping cart/online store that also has online payments built-in & relatively simple to update menus for product change names, drop down boxes for payments.
I have build four websites with Xara so I'm in the medium skill sets I guess?
Many Thanks
Dave

I have started testing a Form Builder that can manage product lists, prices and online billing https://www.pabbly.com/. For me, it looks promising because while you pay for each form you create, the functionally you have is the full suite. Maybe worth a look.

Dave,
I believe the answer is yes to baskets and payments. The 'Form' will be integrated into my own initiostar website, much (I hope) the same as any widget.
I will post an update here next week. I'm sure other TGers will have some suggestions too.

When I sold goods I used Romancart https://www.romancart.com/
At the time its was not the most graphically impressive system but worked well and was easy to implement.

Yes, I'd go with Tim. I used Romancart several years ago and found it very simple to set up.

Hi Thanks to all the replies.
I'm still looking & exploring which platform to use. It's a pity Xara doesn't have a more ecommerce friendly set up(?).

Hey there.
Been a xara-ite for many years.... Shopping carts eh?
Just checking out a script I found from an Author in Bulgaria. Stivasoft ... the STIVA Shopping Cart. Costs a bit off the bat ...$89 US but it comes with a year of Support and it's a developers license so you can install it in as many webs as you wish. I bought the mega bundle which may or may not prove to have been an intelligent choice. I am just installing the shopping cart script in my first test website tomorrow so I'll come back here and provide an opinion in a day or two. Check it out if you want. phpjabbers.com - https://www.phpjabbers.com/php-shopping-cart-script/ Tell them James sent you. I've been driving them nuts with never-ending questions.

Hi Skybeacon
Thanks for that I await your reply. I think it also depends on what you are selling/what you want your shop for & do you host the site yourself?
It looks like you download the script for your site & the build your shop & upload yourself?
What about payments & inventory how does that work, how many categories & setting up shipping costs.
Need to be able to take all those into account, what if the company dissapears or goes out if business where does that leave you?
I have been looking at ecwid as a middle of the road option.
Yes let me know what you think of the Stiva shopping cart.
Thanks Dave
