What happens after launch.

A store isn't finished on launch day - that is when it starts taking orders. Here is what we do on the day, what Essential care does for every store and what the other plans add.

Launch · Warranty · Care · Who does what← E-commerce packages

Warranty

3-month warranty.

For 3 months from launch day we fix issues and bugs in what we built, free of charge. It applies to every package.

What it covers

  • bugs and issues in what we built
  • anything that doesn't work as agreed
  • at no extra charge, in every package

What it doesn't cover

  • new features
  • changes to what was agreed
  • content work - products, copy, photos

Anything the warranty doesn't cover is quoted separately.

Stages

From launch day onward.

Five stages, in the order your store meets them.

  1. 01 · Launch day

    In every package: the DNS cutover, TLS, a redirect map from every old URL so the SEO value you have built up is not lost, and live payment and courier credentials.

  2. 02 · The first 48 hours

    The store's first 48 hours live are monitored - that is part of the launch in every package too.

  3. 03 · The first 3 months: warranty

    In every package: for 3 months from launch day we fix issues and bugs in what we built, free of charge.

  4. 04 · From day one: Essential care

    Required for every store we build: hosting on a dedicated server in our EU infrastructure with the server cost included, health monitoring with automatic restarts, nightly backups we restore in a test every quarter, and Maina Watch.

  5. 05 · Optional: Standard or Growth care

    In place of Essential, when you want more: updates tested before production and a written monthly report; on Growth care also monthly SEO monitoring, 2 development hours a month, a same-business-day response and an hour of content work. The prices are below.

Essential care

In every store: Essential care.

We host and run your store, so Essential care is required and includes the server. Standard and Growth care add to it.

What Essential care does

  • hosting on a dedicated server for your store alone, the server cost included
  • 24/7 uptime, SSL and domain-expiry monitoring (Maina Watch)
  • disk, memory and container health checks with automatic restarts
  • we act on the alert rather than just passing it on
  • nightly backups, with a verified restore every quarter
  • a quarterly automated SEO audit and a PDF report by email

What the other plans add

  • Standard: Medusa, Next.js and server updates, tested before production
  • Standard: a written monthly report with recommendations
  • Growth: monthly SEO monitoring
  • Growth: 2 development hours a month and a same-business-day response
  • Growth: an hour of content work a month - products, prices, banners

The three plans and their prices are in the catalogue below.

Care plans

Three plans, one required floor.

Essential care is required for every store we build and includes the server. Standard and Growth care are optional upgrades - each plan includes the one before it. The prices come from our live catalogue.

per month

Required for every store we build: hosting on its own dedicated server with the server cost included, health monitoring with automatic restarts, and backups we can prove restore. We run it, we watch it, and over an hour of our time a month goes into stopping problems before they happen.

Who does what

We run the server. You run the business.

How the work splits once the store is live.

Us

  • the server, its hosting and its management
  • monitoring and automatic restarts
  • backups and the quarterly restore drills
  • warranty fixes in the first 3 months
  • on Standard or Growth care: updates, the monthly report, SEO monitoring and development hours

You

  • your domain
  • your contracts with payment providers and couriers
  • your products and content - unless you have Growth care's content hour
  • the mailbox your customer emails are sent through

You never deal with Hetzner, whose EU data centres our infrastructure runs in: no account, no bill. The server is ours, and its cost is part of Essential care.

Running costs

What the store costs per month besides us.

The server is part of Essential care. Besides it, you pay the providers directly for the domain, the payment fees and the couriers. Here are the real amounts - as ranges, because they depend on the store.

Domain: from about 16 € a year

A .bg domain costs about 30–40 € a year and a .com about 16–20 € a year, at the registrar of your choice.

Card payments: a share of each sale

No monthly fee, only per transaction: myPOS - 1.30% + 0.10 € for EEA cards; Stripe - 1.5% + 0.25 € for standard EEA cards. For BORICA, ePay.bg, EasyPay and TBI the fees are set in your contract with the bank or provider and have no public price.

Cash on delivery: the courier's fee

The courier takes a fee on the amount it collects, according to its tariff - typically about 1–2.5% of the amount, with a minimum. It is part of your contract with the courier.

Couriers: your own contract

The store uses your own contract with Econt, Speedy, Sameday or BOX NOW. The terms are between you and the courier.

Email: your own mailbox

Mail to your customers goes out through a mailbox you already have (SMTP) - no extra monthly cost from us.

Only with the mobile app

Apple Developer Program - 99 USD a year, and Google Play - 25 USD once. Needed only if you have the mobile app add-on.

For example: besides your care plan, about 3 € a month for a .bg domain, plus card fees on what you sell. Amounts as of October 2026. Providers change their prices - check with them before you decide.

Code and data

The code and the data are yours.

The server is ours and we run it, but the store's code and data belong to you. Whenever you ask - at any time, or if you leave - you get the code (transferred to your own repository, your GitHub for example, or on a USB drive), a database export and the files, and we help you move the domain. We keep hosting the store until the handover is done.

Frequently asked questions

After launch.

What does the store cost per month?

Your care plan: Essential care is required and includes the server, and its price is in the catalogue above. Besides us - the domain (about 30–40 € a year for .bg) and payment fees on what you sell. The details are in "What the store costs per month besides us" above.

What does the warranty cover?

For 3 months from launch day we fix issues and bugs in what we built, free of charge - anything that doesn't work as agreed. It applies to every package. New features, changes and content work are not part of the warranty and are quoted separately.

Do I need a care plan?

Yes. Essential care is required for every store we build, because we host and run it. It includes the server, health monitoring with automatic restarts, backups proven to restore and Maina Watch. Standard and Growth care are optional: they add tested updates and a monthly report, and Growth care adds SEO monitoring, development hours and a same-business-day response when the store stops selling.

What exactly does Maina Watch cover?

24/7 uptime, SSL and domain-expiry monitoring, nightly backups, a quarterly automated SEO audit and a PDF report by email. Watch is part of Essential care, so every store we host has it - and when it raises an alert, we act.

Who owns the server?

We do - we rent it and run it, and its cost is included in Essential care. Your store is alone on it: nothing is shared with other clients. The store's code and data are yours.

Who owns the code?

You do. The store's source code belongs to you. Whenever you ask - at any time, or if you leave - we transfer it to your own repository (your GitHub, for example) or hand it over on a USB drive, together with a database export and the files.

Where is my data?

In our EU infrastructure - in Hetzner data centres in the European Union. We process it on your behalf, under a data processing agreement.

How are updates tested?

On Standard and Growth care, security and dependency updates - Medusa, Next.js, the operating system and dependencies - are deployed to staging first and regression-tested before they reach the live store.
