By following these steps, you can start setting up an online shop quickly and begin selling your products today.
1. Register a domain name and install your online shop
The first step to setting up an online shop is registering a domain name. It’s often best to use the name of your online shop as a domain name. If it’s already taken, we will provide you with some alternatives.
Next, choose your domain extension. If you want to sell your products internationally, it’s a good idea to choose a more generic extension like .com or .eu.
After completing your order, log in to your one.com dashboard, navigate to Online Shop and click on Create my shop.

Once your online shop is installed, it’s time to fill your online store with products. It’s possible to add both physical and digital products. You can do this in the Products tab.
Click on ‘add product’, fill in the product details and upload an image of your product. You can enable additional options if your product comes in different colours or sizes.
Create categories to group related products and make it easier for visitors to navigate through your online store.
3. Add payment methods
Enable your preferred payment methods in the Settings tab. We offer the following payment options:
- Stripe
- Credit card, iDEAL, Giropay, Bancontact & SOFORT
- PayPal
- Manual payments like bank transfers
Although we do not charge any transaction fees, third-party services like Stripe do.
