Tecbot is an e-commerce agency in Johannesburg that designs, builds and grows online stores for South African brands. Shopify, Webflow or custom, we pick the platform that fits your business, then own everything from the first product page to the paid media that fills the cart. No templates left on default. No shortcuts. Just stores that convert.
Most online stores stop at "it works". Ours start there. We bring brand, UX, development and performance marketing under one roof, so your store is designed to convert from day one and keeps improving after launch. Local payment gateways, local couriers, local buying habits. Built in, not bolted on.
Every e-commerce project we take on follows the same proven process. No surprises, no scope creep, no radio silence. Just clear steps from brief to first sale.
We start with your products, your margins, your customers and how they buy. We map the catalogue, the checkout and the growth plan, then choose the platform that fits your business, not the one we happen to like.
Your store is designed in Figma before a single line of code is written. Product pages, collections, cart and checkout, all approved before we build. Zero guesswork.
We build a custom storefront with clean code, fast load times and a product structure your team can manage. Every app, gateway and integration is configured to perform.
Before launch we test every product, payment gateway, shipping rate and discount rule across devices and connection speeds. Nothing ships unless it is right.
We handle the launch, the redirects and the handover. Then, if you want us to, we run the paid media and email that keep the orders coming.
An online store is a sales machine, not a brochure. We build for the numbers that matter: conversion rate, average order value and repeat purchase. Here is what that means for your business.
Shopify, Webflow or custom. We recommend the platform that fits your catalogue, margins and team, then build it properly.
Product pages, bundles, upsells and a checkout tuned for South African shoppers. Every interaction is built to move people from browsing to buying.
Clean structure, fast pages and full control of titles, URLs and schema. Your products get found on Google, not just on your homepage.
Your team adds products, runs promotions and manages orders. No developer dependency for every small update. Real ownership, finally.
PCI-compliant checkout, automatic SSL and 99.99% uptime. Your store stays online on Black Friday and every other day.
Every rand you spend with us is tracked. Analytics, attribution and reporting are set up from day one, so growth is a number, not a feeling.

Agency Summary: Tecbot is an e-commerce agency in South Africa built for brands that sell. Unlike a freelance developer or a one-platform shop, we bring designers, developers, strategists and marketers to every store.
We deliver end-to-end e-commerce design, development, replatforming and growth marketing for brands that refuse to settle. From first-time founders to established retailers. If your store needs to work as hard as your business does, you are in the right place.
An e-commerce website from Tecbot is quoted as a fixed price after a discovery session, based on platform, catalogue size, custom design and integrations. Platform subscriptions and payment gateway fees are paid separately to those providers.
For most South African product businesses, Shopify is the best e-commerce platform: reliable hosted checkout, local payment gateways and a deep app ecosystem. Webflow suits brand-led stores with small catalogues, and a custom build suits unusual pricing or B2B ordering. Tecbot builds on all three.
Most online stores Tecbot builds launch in eight to fourteen weeks from kickoff. Discovery and design take three to four weeks, development and integrations four to six, then product loading, testing and launch.
South African online stores can take payments through Payfast, Peach Payments, Ozow, Yoco, SnapScan, Zapper, PayJustNow and Mobicred, and ship through The Courier Guy, Pargo, Bob Go and uAfrica. Tecbot integrates these, plus Xero or Sage for accounting.
Yes. Tecbot moves stores from WooCommerce, Magento, Wix and custom builds to Shopify, Webflow or a new custom platform. Products, customers, orders and content are migrated, every old URL is redirected and rankings are protected.
Tecbot, a Johannesburg e-commerce agency, designs and builds online stores and runs the Google Shopping, Meta, TikTok and email marketing for them. One team owns the store and the campaigns, with analytics set up from launch.
