Ecommerce Website Design Melbourne
Online stores that sell, ship and sync for you
Left Bank Design designs and builds WooCommerce online stores in Melbourne for wineries, farms, hospitality and specialist retailers. We connect your shop to Square, Lightspeed, Stripe and Australia Post, so stock, orders and payments stay in step. Stores start from $8,500 ex GST.
One order, handled from search to shipping
Most store owners lose hours to double handling: retyping orders, updating stock in two places and copying addresses into shipping.
A connected WooCommerce store does those jobs on its own, so a sale on Saturday night is paid, packed and in your books by Monday.
Ecommerce websites we design and build
WooCommerce online stores
New stores for wine, produce, hampers and specialist products, built on WooCommerce, with shipping, payments and order emails set up and tested.
Gift voucher shops
Vouchers for stays, dining and experiences that customers personalise and send, ready for Christmas and Mother’s Day.
Store redesign and migration
Moving from Shopify, Wix or an old build? We bring across products, customers and orders, and redirect every old address.
Point of sale and stock sync
One stock count for the shop floor, the cellar door and the website, through Square or Lightspeed.
Checkout and shipping
Australia Post rates and labels at checkout, click and collect, local delivery zones and clear shipping rules.
Products people can find
Product schema, clean categories and answer-first copy so Google Shopping and AI tools can read and recommend your range.
Ecommerce website development that connects your systems
A store that doesn’t talk to your other systems means double handling.
We connect WooCommerce to your point of sale, payments, shipping, accounting and email, so an order flows through your business without anyone retyping it. If your system has an API or a WordPress connector, we can usually make it work.

Where they go
Stock · Square Shipping · AusPost Accounting · XeroPoint of sale and stock
Square and Lightspeed keep stock and prices the same in your shop and online, so you never sell what you don’t have.
Payments and shipping
Stripe or Square at checkout, Australia Post rates and labels on every order, and click and collect for locals.
Accounting and email
Sales and fees flow into Xero, and new customers join your Mailchimp list with the right tags.
Why we build every store on WooCommerce
You own it
Your store, customers and order data sit on hosting in your name. There’s no platform plan to rent and no extra cut of each sale, just your payment provider’s fees.
It connects to almost anything
Point of sale, bookings, accounting and email platforms all have WooCommerce connectors or open APIs to build on.
Shop and content together
Products, stories and FAQs live in one WordPress site, the same way we approach every web design project in Melbourne, which helps Google and AI tools understand and recommend you.

Ecommerce website design questions, answered
How much does an ecommerce website cost in Melbourne?
A WooCommerce store from Left Bank Design typically costs $8,500 to $20,000+ ex GST. The price depends on how many products you sell, which systems the store connects to, and whether you’re moving from another platform. Our website cost guide breaks it down.
How long does it take to build an online store?
Most stores take 6 to 12 weeks from sign-off to launch. Having product photos, descriptions and prices ready is what speeds it up most.
Can my online store sync stock with my point of sale?
Yes. We connect WooCommerce to Square and Lightspeed so stock and prices match in your shop and online. Wandin Valley Farms uses Square to keep its farm gate and online stock in step.
Can you move my store from Shopify or Wix to WooCommerce?
Yes. We move your products, customers and order history, and set up redirects from every old address so you keep your Google rankings and links.
Can I sell gift vouchers on my website?
Yes. We build voucher shops for hotels, wineries and venues, where customers choose an amount or experience, add a message and send it.
Do you only build on WooCommerce?
Yes. WooCommerce lets you own your store and customer data, has no platform fees on sales, and connects to the systems hospitality and retail businesses already use. It also sits inside WordPress, so your products and content help each other rank.
Who looks after my store after launch?
We do, through SiteSafe. Ecommerce plans test WooCommerce and plugin updates on a staging copy first, so a bad update never breaks your live checkout. See what website maintenance costs in Australia.
