Stripe-direct ecommerce in Corona.

A custom storefront wired straight into Stripe: your brand, your data, your domain. Built for the distributors, manufacturers, and family businesses that move product out of Corona.

Corona ships product. The storefront should ship with it.

Corona is built on distribution and making things: warehouses and manufacturers along the Sierra Del Oro and Eagle Glen corridors, family businesses downtown, trades that supply the region. A lot of these operators move serious volume B2B but sell online through a tacked-on store nobody designed. Often it's a spreadsheet exported into a template, with part numbers nobody can search and a checkout that doesn't take a company card cleanly.

Shopify wasn't built for the distributor selling the same hundred items to repeat accounts. The fashion-store theme, the Instagram block, the monthly app stack: none of it serves a buyer who reorders by part number and pays on terms. A manufacturer with a finished-goods line spends real money on the product and then routes it through a platform that treats it like a boutique. The platform is the friction, and friction is margin.

Stripe-direct fits the way Corona actually sells. Stripe moves the money. The catalog, the product pages, the cart, the checkout, the receipt: written around your business, your part numbers, your terms, your branding. You pay Stripe's processing fee and nothing else. No monthly platform rent, no app store, nobody between you and an account that reorders the same items every quarter.

The whole shop, written from scratch.

  1. A storefront on your own domain.Catalog, inventory, cart, and checkout, all built to look like your brand instead of a theme you picked off a list.
  2. Stripe connected straight to your account.Money lands with you on day one. Nobody takes a cut on top of the normal card fee.
  3. Transactional email through Resend:confirmation, shipping update, receipt. Written in your voice, sent from your domain, signed by you.
  4. Up to about thirty products.A brewery with twelve cans plus glassware fits. A shop with fifteen pieces of branded gear fits. Bigger catalogs we quote separately.
  5. Product schema and markup so Google and ChatGPT can read your catalog properly.That matters when someone asks an AI where to buy what you sell.
  6. No theme to migrate.No apps to rent. Nothing breaks because a company you've never met shipped an update on a Tuesday.

Three Corona shops, three shapes of the same build.

A distributor off Sierra Del Oro.

A hundred reorder line items sold to repeat accounts. The catalog is built for them: search by part number, clear specs, bulk quantities, no decoration. A buyer pays by company card and the receipt files as a clean document. Stripe handles the cards. Inventory reflects what's actually on the rack, not yesterday's count. We wire it in about three weeks and hand it to whoever runs purchasing.

A Corona manufacturer with a finished-goods line.

A shop that makes a branded product: a fixture, a kit, a tool the trades buy in volume. Twenty SKUs photographed properly, each with the spec table a buyer trusts. The look matches the company's signage and invoices, not a theme with a logo on top. Local pickup at the dock is an option for the regional accounts. Larger catalogs we quote separately.

A downtown family business.

A long-standing shop putting its best fifteen products online for the first time, the ones customers already ask for by name. The pages read in plain language, load fast on a phone, and the checkout takes one screen. The receipt and shipping note sound like the owner, because that's who wrote them. No platform fee eating into margins that are already tight.

What we will and will not take on.

This works when the catalog is small enough to design around, the brand carries the sale, and you want the code in your own account. It does not work for a thousand-variant inventory, a full warehouse or ERP system, marketplace seller logins, or a stack of twenty Shopify apps. For that, Shopify Plus is the honest answer and we will tell you so before you sign.

The studio is based in San Diego. Corona is reachable for an in-person in roughly two hours; most of the build runs remote, which suits a B2B shop fine. The handoff lands on your domain, with your Stripe keys, with the source in a repository you own. One person does the work. That is what the price and the three-week timeline buy you.
