Doing business online is becoming affordable and easy, thanks to Hostpoint. Today, the largest webhosting provider in Switzerland launches its powerful e-commerce cloud service platform, and offers the powerful ePages online shops for a quick and easy start in ecommerce. The basic Webshop version (LIMITED) is even included in the webhosting package at no extra cost.
The three Webshop versions made available by Hostpoint meet any online merchant’s needs; ecommerce novices as well as professionals, such as mail-order shops or agencies, will be able to cover their requirements. More than 100 shop design templates are available to choose from; they can
easily be replaced by your own design if desired. Depending on the version, the Webshop may be operated in four languages and can manage up to 100 currencies.
The Webshops are well equipped for the handling of payments by being linked with service providers such as PayPal, Saferpay and others. Security is of course essential, and is provided by SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption of all data transmitted.
In addition to their standard functions, the Webshops boast many other features, including the integration of online portals and marketplaces, compatibility with commonly used payment methods and logistics providers, as well as various marketing and design tools. Webshops hosted by Hostpoint in Switzerland will of course meet all country-specific data protection regulations.
The employment of ePages technology provides Hostpoint customers with a mature and established product that can be used to sell not only goods, but also services. A car rental company can accept reservations for cars, or the customers of a hairdresser can easily book appointments through the hair salon’s Webshop. Anyone interested can test the Webshop free of charge, and without any obligation. Customers who decide to go with the free Webshop, included in the SMART and BUSINESS hosting packages, can upgrade their shop at any later point in time.
