The Netflare feature rich and scalable ecommerce solution is based on osCommerce, an Open Source Technology. This gives you access to hundreds of open source modules available to tailor the solution exactly to your requirements.

With enterprise ready technology, you can integrate your sales into your back office software such as Sage, MYOB and most other ERP and accounting systems. This means your website has the capability to seamlessly evolve and grow with your company.

The Netflare ecommerce solution gives you a custom designed, compelling and user-friendly website. As part of the solution, you get a Thawte SSL certificate to enable secure transactions directly from your website, and have the option of integrating PROTX payment gateway that means the transactions go straight to you bank.

After performing a detailed analysis of your business, your online product catalogue will be organised to allow for easy navigation by chosen categories and subcategories, and product types. Having a logical flow to help your prospects find the right product or service is essential to maintaining high transaction levels on your website.

The merchandising functionality of your ecommerce site will allow you to set price breaks based on order volume and on customer groups, such as trade or retail. You also have complete control over tax and shipping charges for each product. You can also support downloadable product types as well as standard shippable products.

To assist with your promotional campaigns, you can create online vouchers and coupons to be used as offers on specific product ranges. To assist your prospect in choosing the necessary products, you can link various items together to highlight related products. You can also list the most popular items, items that were also bought with the chosen product, and a list of promotional items in general.

When dealing with the actual sale, you have a comprehensive choice of transaction processing systems. By making your website secure, you can accept credit cards, debit cards and American express. With a payment gateway integrated, such as PROTX, your transaction will go straight to your bank. Other payment methods accepted are PayPal, WorldPay, and NoChex. You can also allow delayed payment methods such as cheques or purchase order mechanisms for customers with an account.

When an order is placed, you will have the option to provide checkout success and auto-notification of these products for your customers. This allows powerful data mining techniques to keep you customers informed of new products and changes to your existing product range.

As all the product information and content pages are held in a powerful content management system, you get online access to change, add and delete this information at any time. By using standard spreadsheets, you can also update all your product information in a single upload.

The product management facilities allow you to create product categories and subcategories up to 4 layers deep. You can create multiple product options such as colour, size, material etc. For content, you can add news items and general articles using a wysiwyg (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) editor. The system even allows multi-lingual and multi-currency facilities to make your site international.

The Netflare technical support to keep your website fully functional, together with hands on account management will ensure your marketing strategies keep on track.
