PrestaShop
PrestaShop is an open source e‑commerce platform built on PHP, one of the most popular in Europe, with a large market of modules and themes. We build new PrestaShop stores, maintain and develop existing ones, migrate stores to and from PrestaShop and write modules and integrations, including the official PayLane payment gateway integration.
Why PrestaShop
Strengths of PrestaShop
Open source
The platform is free under an open source license, so you get full access to the code and pay no store license fee.
Large module market
Ready-made modules for payments, shipping, marketing and marketplaces shorten the time to deliver common features.
Quick start
A store with a typical catalog and checkout can launch faster and for less than on heavier platforms.
Multilingual and multistore
Several languages, currencies and stores (multistore) in a single installation.
European community
A large community and many module vendors, including for the Polish market: payments, couriers, invoicing.
A good fit when
- B2C stores and B2C with some B2B features that want to launch quickly on a proven platform.
- Companies that already run a PrestaShop store and want to develop it instead of migrating.
- Projects where ready-made modules cover most features and custom code is needed in only a few places.
Consider an alternative when
- Complex B2B with per-customer price lists, RFQ and credit limits: Endora Commerce or Magento (Adobe Commerce) is a better fit.
- Many modules from different vendors: the risk of conflicts and update costs grows, so plan a review and clean-up.
- High traffic and a catalog of hundreds of thousands of products: this needs careful optimisation and infrastructure.

Our PrestaShop experience
We maintain and develop the PrestaShop store of MPM, a Polish home appliance manufacturer. We also wrote the official PayLane payment gateway integration for PrestaShop.
PrestaShop or another platform?
PrestaShop works well for stores that can rely on ready-made modules and want to launch quickly. When B2B sales need negotiated prices, quote requests and several warehouses, we compare it with Magento (Adobe Commerce) and Endora Commerce, and base the decision on an analysis of your sales process, not on platform habit.
