Open-source, lightweight and cheap to run. I set up OpenCart stores, customise themes, write extensions and fix or migrate existing shops. A good fit for smaller catalogues and multi-language selling. From €1,900.
Built-in languages and currencies keep OpenCart cheapest here: no translation plugin or app to renew every year.
Card fees and the build itself are left out: they depend on your sales and design, not the platform.

This is where OpenCart is quietly strong: all three are in the core. Switch the demo store below and see what changes, and what I set up around it.

Yes, for smaller catalogues that sell in several languages on a tight running budget. OpenCart is free, light on hosting and has languages, currencies and multiple stores built in. Its extension market is smaller than WooCommerce's or Shopify's, so I check every extension against your OpenCart version before you buy it.
Yes. I copy the store to a staging server, then check the OpenCart and PHP versions, extensions, OCMOD modifications and error logs. You get a short list of what is broken and what it costs to fix, and changes go live only after they work on the copy. Most fixes are billed by the hour.
Yes. Products, categories, customers and order history can be moved, and every old URL, including the index.php?route= addresses, gets a 301 redirect to its new page. Customer passwords usually cannot be carried over, so shoppers set a new one. The migration page explains the full process.
A new lean store, a fix or a move. Tell me the catalogue size and languages; you get a written fixed price within one working day.
