Core Platform / E-commerce

Core Commerce

Our own e-commerce platform, designed for South African trade from the first line of code. Local payments and couriers as standard, your stock and books already connected, and none of the offshore tax that comes with the global platforms.

On the roadmap
What it does
  • Local payments and couriers native, not bolted on through plugins
  • Stock, sales and accounting connected from day one through the Core Platform
  • Own your data and host it in South Africa
  • Built to handle a real catalogue, not just a handful of products

This is the most ambitious thing on our roadmap, and we are not pretending otherwise. We build on PrestaShop, WooCommerce and Shopify every week, and we keep meeting the same South African gaps: payments and couriers that have to be wired in, stock that lives in a different system, and platform fees that climb as you grow.

Why build another platform

Because the commerce tools most South African merchants use were built for somewhere else. Core Commerce starts from local payments, local couriers and local compliance, with the rest of your business already connected.

Part of the whole

Core Commerce is the storefront that sits on top of the Core Platform. The same stock that Core WMS tracks and the same numbers Core Accounting keeps will power the shop, so the website never sells what is not there.

Where it is

Core Commerce is on the roadmap, the long-term destination for the platform. Until it is ready we build and run stores on PrestaShop and WooCommerce, and we will tell you honestly which one fits you today. Tell us what you are selling and we will point you the right way.

Core Platform is in development and not yet for sale. Register your interest and we will bring you in early.

Build it with us

We are shaping Core Commerce around how real South African businesses work. Tell us what you need from it and we will factor that in.
