Have a Shopify store built for the Swiss market – professionally, ready for sales from day 1
Why Shopify is the Right Platform for SMEs
Simple, scalable, and suitable for Switzerland
Shopify is the most widely used and reliably maintained e-commerce platform worldwide: stable performance even with high traffic, regular updates, excellent support, and a huge app ecosystem. For SMEs without their own IT department, it is crucial that a Shopify store can be operated independently after setup — adding products, adjusting inventory, managing orders: all without programming knowledge.
Shopify grows with your business
Shopify scales with your growth: What starts as a simple shop today can be a fully integrated multichannel sales system tomorrow - without changing platforms. This is the foundation upon which Helda Solutions builds all shop setup projects.
Why Other Platforms Are Riskier for Swiss SMEs
WooCommerce requires active hosting management and technical maintenance. Other SaaS solutions have limited integration options for Swiss payment solutions. Shopify, with Shopify Payments and the App Store, offers all the necessary tools — without the technical responsibility for server security and updates.
What a professional shop setup includes
Technical Setup: Foundation for Security and Performance
A professional shop setup at Helda Solutions includes: domain configuration, SSL certificate, performance optimization, correct redirects, and a clean URL structure for SEO. Design and UX ensure that your shop not only looks good but also converts — clear navigation, compelling product pages, prominent calls to action, mobile layout.
From strategy to a finished store
Product import and structuring involve optimizing titles, descriptions, and metadata for search engines, as well as categorization that is logical and intuitive for customers. Analytics and tracking are cleanly implemented from the outset: Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Google Ads conversion tracking — all correct and compliant with the Swiss FADP/EU GDPR.
Integrations for the Swiss Market
All integrations relevant for the Swiss market are set up from the start: TWINT, credit card, PayPal, invoice, shipping solutions, Swiss VAT configuration, and legally compliant data protection settings. A poorly integrated shop costs customers daily — a professionally built one converts reliably.
Swiss Requirements: Payment Methods, VAT & Data Protection
CHF, TWINT, and Legal Compliance
An online shop for the Swiss market has specific requirements: TWINT is the most used payment system in Switzerland and must be integrated. Credit card, PayPal, invoice, and installment payments complete the offering. Swiss VAT rates, tax statements on orders, and correct invoicing must be configured correctly from the start.
Data protection in accordance with the Swiss Data Protection Act and the GDPR from the outset
Data protection according to the DPA (Swiss Data Protection Act) and GDPR is not optional: cookie banners, privacy policies, opt-in settings, and the correct configuration of tracking tools must be legally sound. Helda Solutions is familiar with these Swiss specifics and sets up each shop correctly — without legal risks for your company.
No expensive post-correction due to professional start
The most common mistakes in do-it-yourself Shopify setups in Switzerland: missing TWINT integration, incorrect VAT configuration, incomplete privacy policies, and missing cookie consent. Correcting these errors retrospectively is time-consuming and more expensive than a professional setup from the start.
From setup to first sale — our process
Structured process with a clear timeline
Helda Solutions supports the shop setup in a structured process: It begins with a kick-off meeting where we understand your products, your target audience, your competitive landscape, and your specific requirements. Based on this, we develop the shop structure, configure the system, and build all pages and integrations.
Quality Check Before Launch
Before launch, we carry out a comprehensive quality check: all payment flows, mobile display, loading times, basic SEO configuration and mandatory legal information. The shop only goes live when everything is working and legally sound.
Post-Launch: Training and Ongoing Optimization
After the launch, we will be available for an introductory phase during which your team will learn to operate the shop independently. Upon request, we can also support ongoing optimization: conversion rate improvements, new product categories, seasonal adjustments, and the integration of additional sales channels.
