Absolutely! Having a webshop is a great start, but it doesn’t always guarantee a steady flow of orders. ShopLocal.ie is designed to bring local visibility and customers right to your virtual doorstep. By joining our platform, you benefit from a built-in audience eager to support local businesses, plus targeted promotions that direct Local Shoppers to you. We ensure that your shop gets noticed, receives orders, and delights your Customers - all while driving more sales for you.
No problem! You’re free to stick with other payment options, like cash on delivery or in-store payments (see previous question for more on this). While having a Stripe account allows for smoother online transactions, it’s completely optional and not required to sell with us. You’re in control of the payment methods that best suit your business.

While card payments have become the standard for convenience, especially online, we understand that some businesses may prefer offline payment options. ShopLocal.ie offers flexibility - allowing you to accept cash on collection, payment upon delivery, or process card payments with your in-store terminal if that better suits your needs.
However, we do recommend online payments as the primary option, as they help reduce missed pickups and no-shows, creating a more seamless experience for you and your customers. Ultimately, we want you to succeed in the way that works best for your business, so the choice is yours.
