E-Commerce and M-Commerce Solutions
E-commerce is recognised as a highly beneficial way of doing business, as it provides many conveniences and time-saving methods. This, combined with the rapidly growing user-base in South Africa, will in time make it the preferred method of doing transactions.
When it comes to online commerce systems, confidence is still low in South Africa; however, entrepreneurs working from home, small businesses and large corporations in the rest of the world are seeing their returns sky-rocketing when they complement their sales force with an e-commerce system.
Forerunners in South Africa that get their e-commerce systems up and running now already will have a distinct advantage when the interest in e-commerce takes off.
Integration with third part APIs
Incorrectly or poorly done; reporting, inventory, supply chain and logistics management are the main processes that can result in your e-commerce projects’ failure – these are also the most challenging to get right! Glitches here and there can cost you money and negatively affect the customers’ experience with your company.
From start-ups to enterprises, it’s vital that the back office of the e-commerce system runs seamlessly. Accurate and timely reporting can ensure that the most sensible business decisions are being made; while easy and quick manipulation of data will ensure you are making the most of opportunities and efficient processes. This way, we are able to guarantee that our customers’ expectations and goals are met.
Online Innovations have experience in integration with business management systems such as SAP, Navision, Pastel and the like. Integrating with the business management system proves hugely beneficial - with money spent on creating it right the first time translating into massive savings and value benefits in the long run.
Importance of Shipping and logistics
The shipping component of your e-commerce website can make or break it. An inaccurate shipping calculation can cost you or your customer money and if not carefully considered, it could make the total cost of the order too expensive.
At Online Innovations, we have gained a superior understanding of the courier and freight industry in South Africa. Our customers can benefit from our experience gained in previous projects, as well as our sound knowledge of shipping processes and the APIs that the freight industry offers.
Payment options and Payment Gateways
We’ve been established since 2000 and it’s because of this fact that we can boast that we have developed many online shops over the years. Over this period we have been exposed to and understand, what must be, all of the credit card processing and merchant providers in the country. Our development team shares this experience with customers and can advise them on the merchant or online transaction services that will best suit their payment gateway needs.
