How to Launch Your Online Store in India Using zCartify – Step-by-Step Guide
Launching an online store doesn't have to be complicated. With zCartify, the entire process becomes simple, structured, and fast. Whether you're a boutique, supermarket, wholesale trader, or local retailer, this guide will help you launch your professional online store without confusion.
Our part of the process — configuration, deployment, and getting your store ready for testing — is completed within a maximum of 2 days. Steps that depend on you, such as GST registration, domain setup, or Razorpay KYC and key entry, run on your own timeline and are outside our control.
1. Register Your Business (GST)
If you haven't registered your business yet, complete your GST registration first. It allows your store to issue legal invoices and accept online payments.
2. Choose and Register Your Domain Name
Your domain name is your brand identity. Register a domain using providers like GoDaddy, Hostinger, BigRock, or Namecheap.
3. Contact Us to Discuss Requirements
Speak with our team to explain your business model, product categories, shipping preferences, and any custom feature requirements.
4. Get Your Quotation
Based on your needs, we provide a clear quotation, timeline, and feature list—fully transparent and easy to understand.
5. Pay 50% Advance
Once the advance payment is made, your project setup begins immediately.
6. Create Your Razorpay Account
Register with Razorpay and complete KYC to obtain your Test and Live API Keys. You can do this at any time that suits you — there's no need to coordinate this step with us.
7. Enter Your Razorpay Keys Securely
Your Test and Live API keys are entered directly into your store's admin panel by you, and stored using bank-grade encryption. We never see or handle your keys — this keeps your payment credentials fully in your control and lets you activate testing the moment your Razorpay account is ready.
8. Test Everything and Confirm
Using your Test keys, try out the complete order flow — product pages, cart, checkout, admin panel, and reports. Once you're satisfied, switch to your Live keys whenever you're ready.
9. Your Store Goes Live
The moment your Live keys are entered, your store starts accepting real orders from customers. There's no waiting on us for this step — it happens on your schedule.
10. Tie Up With Your Delivery Partner
You can partner with logistics providers like Shiprocket, Delhivery, DTDC, or any local courier service. We guide you on configuring the basic delivery setup within your store.
11. Start Selling and Growing Your Business
Upload your products, promote your store link, run digital ads, and manage your orders. Your store is now fully operational with zCartify!
