Frequently Asked Questions

Do you provide apps for additional functionality? No, all functionality is inherent to the platform. This leads to greater stability, reliability and security. As we own and develop the platform in house, we have access to the core code to develop it as our customers wish. We don't rely on third party developers to deliver inflexible functionality, we deliver features exactly to our clients' specification. + -

Will lots of apps affect my site's performance? Yes, apps can become quite resource-hungry so the more apps you have layered on top of each other to provide your site with additional functionality, the more your site performance will suffer. + -

Do you have sales limits like BigCommerce? No, unlike BigCommerce we don't start to charge you extra or put any restrictions on you when you sell more. We want you to sell more! + -

Do you have a limit on product variants? No, you can have as many variants as you want per product. We don't set a random limit of 600 like BigCommerce. + -

Do you offshore development? No, tradeit is built, developed, hosted and supported in the UK. New features are released on a regular basis, keeping us and our customers at the forefront of ecommerce technology and best practice. Red is differentiated from its competition by owning all aspects of its ecommerce solution; this control leads to significant client benefits as we are able to move swiftly and flexibly to address any requirement. All of our customers have direct access to the people actually building and supporting their ecommerce platform.

Rather than rely on agencies of varying degrees of capability or third-party app developers, to deliver our solution, we design, build, integrate, host, support and maintain all sites in-house. + -
