Structured Shopify launch for Sri Lanka merchants
This page focuses on getting a new or migrated store launch-ready — domain, catalogue, navigation, theme baseline, payments eligibility, LKR presentation, shipping, tax settings and test orders. It is not the general Shopify services catalogue or a developer hire landing page.
Launch-ready configuration
Products and collections imported or created, menus and policies linked, theme chosen and branded at a sensible baseline before custom theme work.
Payments & LKR
Payment providers appear based on Shopify plan, store country and supported gateways — PayHere and other third-party paths are scoped on the dedicated PayHere page after eligibility checks.
Shipping & tax basics
Zones and rates aligned to how you fulfil domestically and internationally; tax settings matched to your accounting advice — not guessed from this overview.
Domain through test orders
Work through these in order where possible — skipping test orders is the most common source of launch-week payment or shipping surprises.
Store foundation
- Primary domain connected and SSL active on Shopify
- Products, variants, SKUs and images uploaded or imported
- Collections and navigation menus reflecting how customers browse
- Theme selected (Dawn or premium) with brand basics applied
- Legal pages linked: refund, privacy, terms, contact
Money & markets
- Store currency and market settings aligned to LKR and export intent
- Payment provider eligibility confirmed in Shopify admin before go-live
- PayHere or other gateway scoped only after merchant account readiness
- Shipping zones and rates configured or linked to shipping setup page
- Tax configuration reviewed with your accountant’s guidance
Merchant must provide
- Brand assets, product data and accurate weights for shipping
- Access to domain DNS and Shopify staff account (least privilege)
- Payment provider merchant IDs and credentials via secure channel — never chat logs
- Courier or flat-rate rules and fulfilment locations
- Decision-maker for test order approval and launch sign-off
