Start an online store you actually own

You don't need a hundred apps to launch. You need a branded storefront on your own domain, a catalog, checkout, and a clean path to fulfillment. Here's how a Bizdia store goes live — honestly, including the parts you bring yourself.

The fastest way to overcomplicate launching a store is to start with the app store. Strip it back and a store is four things: a place to list products, a cart, a checkout, and a way to get orders to customers. Bizdia gives you those on infrastructure you own.

Three steps to live

1. Provision your store. Sign up and Bizdia creates a real, checkout-ready store — a channel, a firewalled admin scoped only to your data, and your administrator account. No credit card to start.

2. Brand and connect. Pick one of three themes and apply your colors, logo and type as data — no front-end code. Point your domain, and drop in your ShipStation credentials so orders flow to Amazon FBA/MCF or your 3PL automatically.

3. Import and sell. Load your catalog — physical goods, multi-variant products, collections and promotions all work out of the box — and start taking orders.

The parts you bring

Being honest saves you a surprise later: you connect your own payment processor (which is exactly why there's no transaction fee to us), and digital-download delivery or subscriptions aren't built in yet. For a standard physical-goods store, everything you need is here on day one.

A store you own should feel boring in the best way — predictable, exportable, and yours. That's the goal.

When your catalog eventually gets huge — one part fitting thousands of models — that's when our fitment engine earns its keep. But you don't need it to start. Start your store.
