About this service

Launching an online store in Canada comes with unique requirements that generic e-commerce tutorials don't cover: GST/HST tax configuration by province, PIPEDA-compliant data collection, Interac e-Transfer integration, bilingual product listings, and Canadian shipping carrier setup. Get any of these wrong and you're looking at compliance issues, cart abandonment, or lost sales from Quebec customers who can't complete a purchase in French. LocalHost Digital builds and launches Shopify and WooCommerce stores specifically for Canadian businesses. We handle everything from store architecture and product catalog import to payment gateway configuration (Stripe, Square, Moneris, PayBright), provincial tax setup, bilingual storefront, and post-launch SEO. Whether you're a Kanata retailer going online for the first time or an established brand scaling from brick-and-mortar to e-commerce, we build the store that converts.

Shopify is easier to manage and has excellent Canadian tax/shipping apps, but charges transaction fees unless you use Shopify Payments. WooCommerce is more flexible and has no transaction fees, but requires more technical management. We help you choose based on your products, volume, and technical comfort.
