Frequently Asked Questions

Do you build e-commerce stores for Abu Dhabi businesses?

Yes. We have built stores for retailers on Yas Island, F&B brands operating across Khalifa City and Al Raha, Saadiyat concept stores, and ADGM-licensed e-commerce companies selling regionally. Our team is based in Al Hamra, RAK, and drives down to Abu Dhabi for product photography, packaging reviews, and pre-launch walkthroughs as the project needs.

How much does an e-commerce store cost in Abu Dhabi?

E-commerce projects start at AED 4,999 for a custom storefront with product catalogue, payment gateway integration, and mobile-first checkout. Larger stores with subscriptions, multi-vendor setups, or custom logistics are scoped individually. Most Abu Dhabi clients land between AED 5,000 and AED 15,000 for a launch-ready store, with hospitality and retail concepts on the higher end.

Which payment gateways do you integrate for Abu Dhabi stores?

Network International, Telr, Stripe, Checkout.com, Tabby, Tamara, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and cash on delivery when the store wants it. For Abu Dhabi businesses selling across the UAE we set AED as the primary currency with optional multi-currency for export orders. KSA and Qatar gateway add-ons are available when you sell into the wider GCC market.

Can you integrate with local logistics providers?

Yes. We integrate with Aramex, Quiqup, Fetchr, and One Click Delivery for same-day and next-day delivery across Abu Dhabi. For Yas Island and Saadiyat hospitality clients we configure delivery zones and time slots that match the island access patterns. Customs documentation for GCC export orders is automated where the store needs it.

Shopify or custom build for an Abu Dhabi store?

Both are valid. Shopify is faster to launch and easier to maintain if your catalogue is under a few hundred SKUs and you do not need deep customisation. Custom Next.js builds make sense when you want full design control, complex logistics, or a headless setup that scales beyond the platform. We recommend the right path after a discovery call, not before.

Will my store work properly in Arabic?

Yes. Full RTL Arabic checkout, product pages, and account flows are standard for any Abu Dhabi e-commerce project that needs it. Product descriptions, transactional emails, and customer support templates are built in both languages so Arabic-speaking shoppers get the same polished experience as English-speaking ones. Especially important for hospitality and luxury retail.

Load time, Revibe

Most online stores leak revenue in the same three places: a slow first load, a checkout with too many steps, and payment options shoppers don’t trust. Each one hands customers straight to the competitor who made buying easier. We rebuild the path from product page to paid order so more of the traffic you already have turns into sales. When we restructured the checkout for Ding Dong Dimsum, online orders rose 147% and checkout drop-off fell 52%.

Speed and a frictionless cart do the heavy lifting. Revibe loads in 1.2 seconds and converts 186% better than its old store. The Magicians Table saw ticket conversion climb 210% after we reworked its buying flow. We engineer every store toward one goal: a higher share of visitors who reach “order confirmed”, backed by a 96 average Lighthouse score across 236 projects since 2014.
