G&LC members receive a complimentary eCommerce Audit and a 30−minute call with a senior eCommerce Expert. You'll get a clear read on exactly what your store is doing right, what is quietly costing you sales, and where to focus your resources first.
- Speed and performance. Slow stores lose sales before a customer even sees a product. We measure Core Web Vitals across your key pages and isolate the exact bottlenecks slowing you down.
- UX and conversion. We trace the exact path your customers take on desktop and mobile from initial navigation to final checkout, pinpointing where they drop off and why.
- SEO and discoverability. A fast store only works if people can actually find it. We audit your crawlability, metadata, schema, and indexation to fix the underlying issues throttling your organic traffic.
- App and plugin stack. Every app leaves a footprint, even after deletion. We identify code conflicts, heavy scripts, and redundant subscriptions you are paying for twice.
- Code quality and compliance. We audit your underlying build against platform best practices, ensuring you are fully compliant with GDPR, cookie consent rules, and payment security standards.
You won't just get a list of problems. Your findings are delivered in a prioritised report, split clearly into high-impact "quick wins" and necessary structural fixes so you can start recovering lost revenue immediately.
What else we do
The audit is where most members start. It's rarely where the conversation ends.
eCommerce Development.
New stores built from scratch, existing ones rebuilt, and migrations between platforms without losing your traffic, your SEO or a day's trading. Bespoke themes on Shopify and Shopify Plus, WooCommerce builds, and headless storefronts when you've outgrown what a template can do.
eCommerce solutions.
The commercial layer on top of the build. Conversion optimisation, merchandising, subscription and membership models, and the
analytics to see what's actually working. Plus the integrations that connect your store to your stock, fulfilment, EPOS and marketing tools.
UX and UI design
Research-led design. We start with your customers rather than a
template, mapping real journeys, testing prototypes with real users, then building a design system your brand can grow into. Accessibility and mobile-first are built in, not bolted on. The result is interfaces that feel obvious to use, which is harder than it sounds and the reason people come back.
Mobile app development
iOS, Android and cross-platform apps built with Flutter or
native, from first concept to a live listing. We handle the parts most teams underestimate: developer account setup, store assets and screenshots, review submissions, plus the updates and roadmap after launch. Your app, your accounts, your intellectual property.
Bespoke software development
Custom platforms, APIs and internal tools built around how your business actually works. Stock and ordering systems, trade portals,forecasting tools. Usually, the answer when spreadsheets and disconnected systems start costing more than they save.
Starting from Scratch or Switching Platforms?
If you don't have an active storefront yet, need a complete overhaul, or want to migrate away from a platform you've outgrown, we offer full-service eCommerce builds to get your brand successfully launched on Shopify. A standard new build or migration includes:
- Design & Branding: Applying your unique brand identity, colours, and typography to a premium, high-converting theme.
- Platform Migration & Data Transfer: Securely moving your existing product catalogues, customer records, and order history from your legacy system to Shopify, ensuring zero data loss and proper SEO redirects.
- Store Setup & Configuration: Complete backend setup, including payment gateways, shipping zones, and automated tax settings.
- Content & Product Loading: Building your essential core pages (Home, About, FAQ, Policies) and uploading your initial inventory so you are ready to sell.
- Core Integrations: Installing and configuring the essential apps you need for email marketing, customer reviews, and analytics.
- Launch & Handover: Rigorous pre-launch testing and a dedicated training session so you are fully confident managing your new store.

“Thank you to Francois Joubert and the Bitcube team for believing in the Smarter Britain vision and helping bring it to life. Your partnership, support and dedication have been instrumental in making Smarter Britain a reality.”
Kevin Gaskell - Founder, Smarter Britain
"The value of this project wasn't a dashboard, it was the foundation. Bitcube got our sales and stock data into one central place, which meant we could point AI at it and get useful answers fast instead of waiting on someone to build a report. Our merchandising team is already running their continuity stock forecasting off it and adapting it themselves. Herman and the team were on top of the project throughout, very responsive, quick to fix things and honest when something needed rethinking.
The next phase of automations are already in the works, being built on this strong foundation."
Akin Onal - Founder & Managing Director, MORI
About Bitcube
Bitcube began with a straightforward but ambitious idea: to give a community of talented developers and designers access to international-calibre work without leaving home. Founded in 2009 in South Africa, the company spent its early years proving that world-class software could be built anywhere — if you hired the right people and held yourself to the right standards.
