Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, with products, variants, payments including iDEAL, shipping rules and order management. It suits a small catalogue rather than a serious e-commerce operation.

Yes, on a Webador subdomain with limited features. Paid plans from around EUR 5 per month add a custom domain, more storage and the shop.

You would rebuild elsewhere — there is no export path, which is normal for website builders. If long-term portability matters, a self-hosted CMS is the better starting point.

Yes, and in other local languages depending on the market. It is a Dutch company hosting in the EU, which is a practical advantage over American builders for Benelux businesses.
