Hostpoint Launches E-Commerce from the Cloud

Offers the ePages online shops for a quick and easy start in e-commerce.

Hostpoint, a web hosting provider, today announced the launch of its e-commerce cloud service platform, and offered the ePages online shops for a quick and easy start in e-commerce. The basic Webshop version (LIMITED) is included in the web hosting package at no extra cost.

The company states that the three Webshop versions made available by it meet any online merchant's needs; e-commerce novices as well as professionals, such as mail-order shops or agencies, will be able to cover their requirements. More than 100 shop design templates are available to choose from; they can easily be replaced by custom designs. Depending on the version, the Webshop may be operated in four languages and can manage up to 100 currencies. The Webshops are well equipped for the handling of payments by being linked with service providers such as PayPal, Saferpay and others. Security is of course essential, and is provided by SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption of all data transmitted.

It mentions that in addition to their standard functions, the Webshops boast many other features, including the integration of online portals and marketplaces, compatibility with commonly used payment methods and logistics providers, as well as various marketing and design tools. Webshops hosted by the company in Switzerland will meet all country-specific data protection regulations.

The company claims that the employment of ePages technology provides its customers with a product that can be used to sell not only goods, but also services. A car rental company can accept reservations for cars, or the customers of a hairdresser can easily book appointments through the hair salon's Webshop. It adds that anyone interested can test the Webshop free of charge, and without any obligation, for 30 days. Customers who decide to go with the free Webshop, included in the SMART and BUSINESS hosting packages, can upgrade their shop at any later point in time.
