Size for the store
Consider catalogue images, database size and expected trading peaks. Check the PHP version and extensions required by your store.
OpenCart hosting
Keep your OpenCart store moving forward.
Review hosting for your OpenCart shop with the catalogue, extensions, payments and working day in mind.
The practical picture
Build around the way your shop trades.
OpenCart is an online shop application. Its hosting needs to support the version and extensions you use, as well as the product images, database and services behind each order.
Test the buying journey
Review products, variations, delivery options, payment test modes and customer emails on the new environment before going live.
Keep live orders safe
Agree how new orders, stock changes and customer records will be handled while a copy of the store is prepared.
The details that matter
Keep the shop’s moving parts in view.
Check extension compatibility
Payment, delivery and stock extensions can depend on specific application or PHP versions. Review the complete setup with the developer before a move or upgrade.
Rehearse the customer journey
Use the agreed test environment to check products, variations, basket, delivery and payment. Confirm order emails separately and protect newer orders during the final deployment.
Made for the working day
Build the hosting around the application.
Your shop may connect to stock systems, couriers, accounting tools and a payment provider. Those connections need to be included in the hosting conversation. We can review the available options with you and your developer, then agree the hosting move and any separate application work required.
Talk through your requirements
A little clarity
OpenCart hosting, explained.
Useful answers before you decide. For anything specific to your website, let’s talk it through.
Which hosting plan should I choose?
Start with the application’s software and resource requirements. Share them with us so we can compare a suitable web or managed cloud configuration.
Are payment services included?
Your payment provider account, its charges and any commercial extensions are separate from the hosting service.
Can I keep my domain name?
Yes. The domain, website hosting and email can be planned separately. We will help identify which settings need to change.
