Creating your store

What happens when you create a store, how long it takes and what to do if it stalls.

Overview

Creating a store takes you through five questions: industry, store name, store address, design and market. When you confirm, we build the storefront for you.

Build stages

You will see progress move through validation, preparation, design, configuration and final checks. Most stores are ready in a few minutes.

If the page is refreshed

Progress continues in the background. Reopening the page shows the current stage rather than restarting.

If a build fails

You can retry from the same screen. Nothing is duplicated when you retry, and no charge applies to a failed build.

Changing details later

Your store name, design and market can all be changed after the build. Your store address can be changed once, and a redirect is created from the old address.
