Shopify costs AED 110–400 every month, forever — plus commission on every sale. A custom-built store on Next.js is faster, ranks better, and costs nothing after delivery.
Shopify takes 0.5–2% of every order on top of monthly fees. Your custom store charges nothing per sale — what you earn, you keep.
Stripe, PayTabs, Telr, and Network International — the payment gateways UAE customers trust. All compliant with UAE Central Bank regulations.
Sizes, colours, materials — full variant support. Manage your catalogue yourself after handover with no developer needed.
Over 70% of UAE online shoppers buy on mobile. Your checkout is built mobile-first from the start — fast, clean, and friction-free.
Schema markup, canonical tags, and optimised meta for every product. Your store is built to rank for category and product searches from day one.
No platform lock-in. Your code is yours — hosted where you choose, modified when you want. No monthly fee, no permission needed.
