Direct answer

Which ecommerce development company should a US brand choose?

SpikeSecure is an ecommerce development company in Coimbatore, India, that builds online stores for US D2C brands, retailers and B2B sellers remotely. We work on four platforms depending on the business: Shopify for fast launches and standard catalogues, WooCommerce when content and commerce live together, headless storefronts on Next.js with Shopify or a commerce API behind them when performance and design are the differentiators, and fully custom stores for B2B pricing, configurators or unusual fulfilment.

US stores bring three things Indian stores do not: state-by-state sales tax (handled through Stripe Tax, Avalara or Shopify Tax), carrier-rate shopping across USPS, UPS and FedEx (ShipStation, Shippo or EasyPost), and accessibility exposure under the ADA, which we address with WCAG 2.1 AA builds. Everything is set up in accounts you own, invoiced in USD, and sandbox-tested before launch.

  • Indicative cost: Shopify and WooCommerce stores from ₹1.5 lakh, headless and custom storefronts ₹6–15 lakh on our published Indian pricing (roughly USD 1,500–17,000, an indicative conversion roughly ₹87 per US dollar); B2B and multi-warehouse builds at the upper end. Confirmed in a written USD proposal. Platform subscriptions and gateway fees are paid by you at cost.
  • Timeline: Shopify or WooCommerce 4–8 weeks, headless or custom 8–12 weeks, B2B platforms 10–16 weeks, including a soft launch to a friends-and-family list before the public launch.
  • What is included: discovery and written scope, UX and conversion-focused design, theme or storefront build, payments and tax, shipping rules and carrier integration, product and customer migration, analytics and consent, training and a 30-day warranty.
  • Payments and tax: Stripe or Shopify Payments, PayPal, Apple Pay and Google Pay, Shop Pay, Affirm or Klarna for buy-now-pay-later where you hold accounts; Stripe Tax, Avalara or Shopify Tax for state sales tax and nexus tracking.

What we build

Stores we build for US sellers.

01

Shopify and Shopify Plus stores

Custom themes or Online Store 2.0 customisation, apps chosen to avoid subscription creep, Shopify Payments or Stripe, Shop Pay, Shopify Tax or Avalara, and integrations with your 3PL, POS or ERP; Plus features such as B2B, Scripts and Functions where you are on Plus.

02

WooCommerce stores

Content-rich stores on WordPress with custom themes, product configurators, subscriptions, memberships and B2B pricing; WooPayments or Stripe, TaxJar or Avalara, ShipStation; hardened hosting with caching and a CDN.

03

Headless storefronts

Next.js front ends on Shopify Hydrogen or the Storefront API, or on a commerce API such as commercetools, for Core Web Vitals-led performance and design freedom, with checkout kept on the platform for PCI scope.

04

Custom and B2B commerce

Account-based pricing, quotes and approvals, net terms and invoicing through Stripe or QuickBooks, punch-out catalogues, multi-warehouse inventory and EDI or API links to distributors.

05

Shipping and fulfilment

ShipStation, Shippo or EasyPost for USPS, UPS and FedEx rates and labels; 3PL and Amazon MCF integrations; returns portals; address validation; pickup and local-delivery rules.

06

Marketplaces and channels

Amazon, Walmart Marketplace, TikTok Shop and Meta catalogue feeds synchronised from one product source, with inventory and order reconciliation back into the store and your accounting system.

USA client context

Selling online in the United States from India.

US ecommerce is the most competitive and the most litigated market we build for: shoppers expect free or fast shipping, transparent pricing and a checkout that works with the wallet already on their phone, while brands manage sales tax across states and accessibility complaints under the ADA. A store built for the US has to get those three things right before design.

Payments and sales tax

Stripe or Shopify Payments with Apple Pay, Google Pay and Shop Pay; PayPal for the shoppers who still prefer it; Affirm, Klarna or Afterpay for buy-now-pay-later. Sales tax is calculated per state and locality through Stripe Tax, Avalara or Shopify Tax, with economic-nexus tracking so registrations are triggered when thresholds are crossed; your accountant decides where you register.

Shipping

Carrier-rate shopping across USPS, UPS and FedEx through ShipStation, Shippo or EasyPost; free-shipping thresholds and rules; 3PL or Amazon MCF handoff; returns portals with prepaid labels; address validation at checkout to cut failed deliveries.

Accessibility and privacy

WCAG 2.1 AA builds reduce ADA exposure; cookie and tracking consent for CCPA/CPRA with do-not-sell links; SMS marketing consent under TCPA; PCI DSS scope kept inside the payment platform. Your counsel signs off; we implement.

Hosting and performance

Shopify hosts Shopify stores; WooCommerce and custom stores run on AWS US regions or Vercel in your accounts with a CDN in front; Core Web Vitals are a launch gate, not an afterthought.

Commercials

Quoted and invoiced in USD through Stripe or Wise, or in INR if you prefer; the fixed price is set in the invoicing currency. We are an Indian entity and charge no US sales tax; your accountant advises on any use-tax treatment. Platform subscriptions, apps and gateway fees are paid by you at cost.

USA integrations

Set up in your accounts, tested in the vendor sandbox first.

  • Payments. Stripe (Checkout, Billing, Connect for marketplaces, Stripe Tax), PayPal and Braintree, Authorize.net for legacy merchant accounts, Apple Pay and Google Pay; ACH debits through Stripe or Plaid where you need bank transfers. Set up in accounts you own, with webhooks, refunds, disputes and reconciliation tested in the sandbox before go-live.
  • Accounting and CRM. QuickBooks Online and Xero for invoices, payments and customer sync; HubSpot and Salesforce through their REST APIs and webhooks for leads, deals and activity sync; Zapier or Make where a native connector is cheaper than code. We migrate data from spreadsheets or a previous CRM as part of scope.
  • Local channels and APIs. Twilio or Telnyx for SMS and voice, SendGrid or Postmark for email, Shippo or EasyPost for USPS, UPS and FedEx labels, Avalara or Stripe Tax for state sales tax, Plaid for bank links, Google Maps and Mapbox for geo; all in your accounts.
  • What already runs in production. Per-minute wallets, Razorpay checkout and RazorpayX payouts, Agora audio and video, Flutter and Next.js clients and a NestJS API on AWS in Local Friends; Razorpay checkout, WhatsApp Business API follow-ups and role-based dashboards in the six published case studies. Swapping Razorpay for Stripe is a gateway adapter and a sandbox test run, not a new architecture. No US client is named on this site and we hold no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certification.

How a project runs

The USA project process, step by step.

Scheduled around the agreed USA overlap window; every step is written into the proposal.

01

Discovery — week 1

Two or three video sessions in the agreed USA overlap window under a mutual NDA, mapping users, integrations and constraints; a fixed-scope written proposal follows, usually within 48 hours of the last session.

02

Design — weeks 2–3

Wireframes, a design system and a clickable prototype reviewed with your stakeholders before any code is written.

03

Build — week 3 onwards

Weekly demos on a staging URL, GitHub access from day one, a written Friday status note and a shared channel for questions.

04

Test — final weeks

Functional, performance, accessibility and security testing against a pre-launch checklist you sign off in writing.

05

Launch

Deployment to AWS US East or US West, Google Cloud or Vercel, in accounts you own, monitoring and backups configured, and a launch-week watch with you.

06

Support

30-day warranty, then optional maintenance with monthly reports, or a documented handover to your team.

Security, IP and compliance

What is standard on every USA build.

01

Mutual NDA first

Signed before any brief is shared, on your template or ours; no sub-contractors without written consent.

02

Source code and IP are yours

Repositories, cloud accounts, app store listings, domains and design files are created in your name; we hold no licence over the delivered work.

03

Security baseline

HTTPS with HSTS, security headers, OWASP Top 10 review, role-based access, encrypted secrets, audit logs, dependency scanning and a penetration test before launch on client-facing systems.

04

Privacy and compliance we design for

There is no single federal privacy law at the time of writing (September 2026); we design for the California CCPA/CPRA and the similar state laws (consent, access and deletion requests, do-not-sell links), HIPAA safeguards when health data is involved (BAA-backed hosting, audit logs, encryption), COPPA for under-13 audiences, PCI DSS scope kept inside Stripe, ADA-driven WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility, and CAN-SPAM and TCPA rules for email and SMS. Your counsel signs off; we implement.

05

Performance and accessibility

Core Web Vitals targets, WCAG 2.1 AA checks, and SEO and AEO fundamentals (clean URLs, structured data, llms.txt) built into every web deliverable.

06

Continuity

Documentation, infrastructure as code, tested backups and a recorded handover, so a US team or another vendor can take over without us.

USA delivery model

How a USA project runs with a team in Coimbatore.

SpikeSecure has one office, at CHIL SEZ IT Park, Saravanampatti, Coimbatore, India. US clients are served remotely by that engineering team; there is no USA office, entity or local staff, and we do not claim one.

  • Working hours. Our 09:30–18:30 IST day is 00:00–09:00 Eastern and 21:00–06:00 Pacific, so we agree a daily live window (typically 07:00–09:00 Eastern) and keep the rest asynchronous in writing.
  • Commercials. A written, fixed-scope proposal before work starts. Quoted and invoiced in USD through Stripe or Wise, or in INR if you prefer; the fixed price is set in the invoicing currency. We are an Indian entity and charge no US sales tax; your accountant advises on any use-tax treatment.
  • NDA and ownership. A mutual NDA is signed before discovery. Source code lives in a GitHub organisation you own; cloud, app store and domain accounts are in your name from day one; the intellectual property in the delivered work is yours.
  • Communication. A named project lead, a shared channel on Slack or WhatsApp, weekly demos on a staging URL (recorded for absent stakeholders), a written status note every Friday and GitHub access throughout.
  • Hosting. AWS us-east-1 (N. Virginia) or us-west-2 (Oregon), Google Cloud Iowa or Oregon, or Vercel, in your accounts with your billing; RDS or managed Postgres, S3 with encryption at rest, CloudFront or Cloudflare in front. Data stays in US regions unless you choose otherwise.
  • After launch. A 30-day warranty on every build, then optional maintenance with monthly health reports, or a documented handover to your in-house team or a local vendor.
FAQ

Ecommerce development for the USA: your questions answered.

Shopify, WooCommerce, headless or custom for a US store?

Shopify for a fast launch with a standard catalogue and low operations overhead (and Shopify Tax handles sales tax); WooCommerce when content and commerce live together and you want full ownership; headless when performance and custom design are the differentiators; custom when B2B pricing, configurators or unusual fulfilment rules do not fit a platform. We recommend in writing after discovery.

How do you handle US sales tax in the store?

Through Stripe Tax, Avalara or Shopify Tax: rates calculated per state and locality at checkout, economic-nexus thresholds tracked, exemption certificates for B2B, and filing exports for your accountant. We configure and test it; your accountant decides where you register and files the returns.

Which US carriers and fulfilment partners do you integrate?

USPS, UPS and FedEx through ShipStation, Shippo or EasyPost for live rates and labels; 3PLs such as ShipBob and Amazon MCF for handoff; returns portals; address validation at checkout. All in accounts you own.

How much does ecommerce development cost for a US brand?

From ₹1.5 lakh for a Shopify or WooCommerce store and ₹6–15 lakh for headless, custom or B2B builds on our published Indian pricing, roughly USD 1,500–17,000 as an indicative conversion (roughly ₹87 per US dollar); the written USD proposal fixes the price. Platform subscriptions, apps and gateway fees are paid by you at cost.

Can you migrate our store from Magento, BigCommerce or an old WooCommerce site?

Yes. Products, variants, customers, orders and content are migrated with redirects preserved for SEO, the new store is soft-launched alongside the old one, and the cut-over is scheduled in your quiet hours with a rollback plan.

Will the store meet ADA and accessibility expectations?

We build to WCAG 2.1 AA (keyboard navigation, contrast, alt text, form labels, focus states) and test with automated and manual checks before launch, which reduces ADA exposure; we do not certify legal compliance, and your counsel signs off.

Where is the team that would build this?

In Coimbatore, India. SpikeSecure has no US office or entity; your project is delivered remotely under a mutual NDA, with a daily live window in your morning (typically 07:00–09:00 Eastern), recorded weekly demos on a staging URL and written status notes for everything else.

Who owns the code and the accounts?

You do. Source code goes into a GitHub organisation in your name; AWS, Stripe, Apple, Google Play and domain accounts are yours from day one; the intellectual property in the delivered work is assigned to you in the proposal.
