WooCommerce, custom or marketplace?

We offer three tiers depending on your catalogue, volumes and ambitions:

  • WooCommerce — for standard catalogues. Mature, extensible, hostable in Morocco, fully open source. Ideal up to several thousand SKUs.
  • Custom Laravel — for complex models: multi-vendor marketplace, B2B with pricing tiers, subscriptions, integrated ERP.
  • Shopify — when the brand is international and doesn't need deep customisation. Quick setup, but less favourable SEO and long-term costs.

Moroccan payment, shipping and invoicing

Native integration of market solutions: CMI (Attijariwafa Bank, BMCE, BCP, etc.), PayZone (Maroc Telecommerce), Stripe, PayPal, bank transfer and cash on delivery. Invoicing module compliant with Moroccan regulation (VAT, ICE number, mandatory mentions). Shipper integration: Amana, CTM Messagerie, DHL, Aramex.

Product SEO + conversion, from day 1

A store that doesn't rank is a closed shopfront. Our product pages follow Google's e-commerce recommendations. Every product page we ship includes: schema.org Product/Offer, optimised meta titles and descriptions, Open Graph tags, compressed images with descriptive alt text, clean URLs and managed redirects. On conversion: streamlined checkout, product recommendations, automated cart abandonment emails, A/B testing on CTAs.

Frequently asked questions

Which e-commerce platform to choose in Morocco?
For a standard catalogue, WooCommerce (WordPress-based) is our recommendation: open source, mature ecosystem, CMI and PayZone integrations available, total control. Shopify can suit international brands but stays expensive and SEO-limited. For catalogues > 5000 SKUs or multi-vendor, we build custom in Laravel.
Do you integrate CMI and PayZone payments?
Yes. We integrate CMI (Centre Monétique Interbancaire), PayZone, Stripe, PayPal and bank transfer. The CMI application takes 2-4 weeks on the bank side; we support you on the technical form, return URLs and sandbox testing.
How much does an e-commerce site cost in Morocco?
Simple WooCommerce store (up to 100 products): 15,000 to 25,000 MAD. Advanced store (multi-language, multi-currency, subscriptions, loyalty programme): 25,000 to 60,000 MAD. Custom platform (marketplace, B2B, integrated ERP): from 60,000 MAD. Detailed quote within 24h. The three budget tiers are detailed in our guide how much an e-commerce site costs in Morocco.
Do you handle product catalogue import?
Yes. Bulk CSV import, scraping of your existing catalogue, or direct integration with your ERP/PIM. SEO optimisation of product pages (title, meta, alt images, Product schema), variant and category generation.
Will the site be SEO-optimised?
Yes — product SEO from the start. Schema.org Product/Offer, clean URLs, dynamic sitemap, Core Web Vitals optimisation (LCP < 2s), optimised images, Google Merchant Center integration for Shopping Ads. SEO audit + action plan included in all e-commerce quotes.
And after launch?
Maintenance and continuous support available: daily backups, security updates, uptime monitoring, French/English hotline. Training your team to add products, manage orders and reporting. Maintenance package from 50 €/month.
