E-commerce storefront solution for SMEs

Philippines Online, a local Internet service provider serving the Metro Manila area, announced the availability of an e-commerce storefront solution for small- and medium-sized businesses.

Philippines Online now offers StoreSense, the award-winning electronic commerce storefront software developed by Kurant Corp., as a turnkey solution for traditional retail establishments wanting to build an Internet storefront.

"Now, local merchants can develop a truly world-class commerce presence on the Internet quickly and easily, without having to understand complex technology or invest significant resources upfront. StoreSense gives small- to medium-sized businesses the power to compete in the big league," says Jayson Yu, COO of Philippines Online.

StoreSense is designed for merchants who want to build a full-featured online storefront, from shopping cart and search engine to transaction processing, order management and reporting, quickly and easily.

It automatically handles all the complex technical aspects of building an online store so that the merchant can focus on customizing the look and feel of the storefront, saving small businesses time and resources.

Philippines Online developed the payment gateway module for the StoreSense implementation in the Philippines, allowing the application to securely transact with existing local payment gateways such as AuthorizNet and BPI.

StoreSense has garnered numerous industry awards, including Compute Reseller News’ 2000 Editor’s Choice Award for e-commerce storefront solution, PC/Computing Magazine’s prestigious MV Award for Best Commerce Service of 1999, and Best of Show in the E-Commerce category at Internet World Spring ’99.
