Shop Local's Online Store vs. Other E-commerce Software
Why Choose Shop Local's Online Store?
Quickly Increase the Number of Products Offered
Shop Local helps businesses quickly offer lots of products online. Retailers can more easily add products using Shop Local's software than other software. In addition, Shop Local's Syncing service helps a retailer instantly display thousands of products. This service saves retailers months of time and thousands of dollars in costs.
Build a Successful Gift Registry Business
Shop Local is the leader in providing gift registry software to indie. Shop Local is the only e-commerce platform with built-in gift registry software. Other platforms require that a business install a third-party app. Having two separate services grapple with registries often produces less than desirable results. With Shop Local, the e-commerce software and gift registry software are seamless.
