Catalogue and filters

01 · What we do
What we build into your store
Four places where online stores usually lose sales, and what we do about each one.
02
Product pages that answer questions
Photos, variants, specs, delivery times and reviews are laid out so shoppers get answers without emailing you. Prices in CAD and clear return terms build trust.
03
A short, familiar checkout
Guest checkout, Apple Pay, Google Pay and saved addresses cut the steps between cart and payment. We remove extra fields and surprise costs that make people leave.
04
Payments, shipping and taxes
We connect Shopify Payments, Stripe, PayPal or Moneris, set Canada Post or courier rates, and configure GST, HST and PST by province. Order and low-stock notifications reach the right person automatically.
02 · Who it’s for
Who an online store is right for
An online store makes sense when you have products to sell and want orders to come in without a phone call.
Not sure it fits? Ask us- 01
Retail brands and local shops
When you sell in a Toronto storefront or at markets and want a second sales channel that ships across Canada.
- 02
Manufacturers selling direct
When you want to sell to consumers or trade buyers online, with price lists, minimum orders or wholesale accounts.
- 03
Growing online sellers
When you have outgrown a marketplace listing or a basic template and need your own store, your own customer data and room to grow the catalogue.
- 04
Brands relying on Google Shopping and ads
When paid search and Shopping ads are your main channel, and the store has to turn that traffic into completed orders.

FAQ
Questions about e-commerce stores
Start selling online

Talk to the team +1 (437) 826-8716info@thrive-solutions.netHow much does an online store cost in Toronto?
Our e-commerce projects start at $6,500 CAD before HST. The price grows with the number of products and custom features, such as wholesale pricing or inventory sync. You get a fixed quote after a free call.
How long does it take to launch a store?
A typical store launches in 8 to 12 weeks. Product data is usually the slowest part, so we give you a spreadsheet template at kickoff to fill in while we design.
Should I choose Shopify or WooCommerce?
Shopify suits most stores that want low maintenance with hosting included. WooCommerce makes sense if you already run WordPress or need unusual product logic, and we recommend one after reviewing your catalogue and budget.
Can you set up Canadian taxes and shipping?
Yes. We configure GST, HST and PST by province and set up Canada Post, Purolator or flat-rate shipping. Local delivery in the GTA and in-store pickup can be added if you offer them.
Will my products appear in Google Shopping?
We set up Google Merchant Center and a product feed so your items are eligible for free listings and Shopping ads. Approval depends on Google's policies, and our team can also run your Shopping campaigns.
