E-commerce Websites and Marketing for Retailers and Brands in Canada
Canadian shoppers compare prices, shipping costs and return policies before they buy, often against large marketplaces. We build fast online stores set up for Canadian sales tax, shipping and payments, then help shoppers find your products through search, Shopping ads and social.
Common problems
Challenges we often hear
- 01Shipping costs and delivery times across Canada put shoppers off at checkout.
- 02GST, HST and provincial sales tax settings are confusing, and mistakes show up at checkout or in your books.
- 03Product and category pages do not rank, so you depend on paid ads and marketplaces.
- 04Email sign-ups do not record consent properly, which matters under Canada's anti-spam law (CASL).

Do you build Shopify stores?
Yes. Shopify stores suit many Canadian retailers, and we also build on WooCommerce or custom platforms when your catalogue or integrations need it. We recommend one after discovery.
Can the store charge the right sales tax for each province?
Yes. Platforms such as Shopify and WooCommerce can calculate GST, HST and PST by province. We configure them using the registrations and rates your accountant confirms.
Do I need a French version of my store?
If you sell to customers in Quebec, French-language requirements may apply. We can build a bilingual store, and we suggest you confirm your obligations with a legal adviser.
