It has been an absolute pleasure setting up my website with the fabulous support, guidance and knowledge of Bronwyn. She is amazingly patient and has super practical ways of teaching us novices how to go about creating something from only a vision. Her turn-around time on support is simply spot on!

All my interactions with Shopstar have been extremely professional and the level of service has been brilliant. A reply to an email request has never been longer than 30 minutes. This is truly a world-class company and one South Africans can be proud of.

I have tried many platforms to do my website and this was truly an amazingly easy one to navigate not being IT technical at all. I am very impressed with the way it worked and the support given throughout. Thank you!

Just some positive feedback on my experience with Shopstar. The support I received is of the highest standard and Bronwyn was most helpful and patient with me as I know very little about building a website. I have been pleasantly surprised with my dealings with Shopstar.

Shopstar is easy to use to create your own website. Anyone can. It does not need to be product based — it can be used for service and product business. It has an amazing team for support and they are consistently working on making your experience better.

Shopstar very generously sponsored their platform for one of our first online fundraisers, the Maison Market 2021. The support I have received from Shopstar while setting up our online shop has been excellent. If you are thinking of opening an online store I would highly recommend Shopstar.

Shopstar seriously is the best ecommerce platform I have ever seen. It's affordable, lots of marketing and ecommerce tools. I moved from Ecwid to Shopstar — I see a big difference and big benefits. Seriously the BEST.

I'm so happy with Shopstar after struggling for months trying to get my online store running. I was able to build my shop with Shopstar within days — the best part is I did it all from my smartphone. Hannah guided me through step-by-step. I made sales within the first 10 minutes of going live. Thank you Shopstar.

Shopstar is really easy to use and produces a very slick shopping site with very little technical knowledge required. It's the most cost-effective way to start an online store. Shopstar Pay makes the payments side super easy to set up. The support is great too with online chat responses.
