Why a custom e-commerce platform makes sense for Szczecin
Szczecin is a capital city of west pomerania, poland, home to about 388,000 people, and one of the markets in Poland where we build custom e-commerce platforms.
The local economy is driven by port logistics and shared services, and commercial activity concentrates around the city centre and port.
Logistics are supported by Port of Szczecin, which matters when you promise customers fast delivery.
Poland has SMEs make up 99% of all businesses in the European Union (European Commission). Poland is one of Europe's fastest-growing e-commerce markets, with BLIK and InPost lockers used by most online shoppers. Integrating with Allegro alongside your own store is common.
For a business in Szczecin, the opportunity is to own the customer relationship: your own custom e-commerce platform keeps your margin, your data and your brand, while marketplaces and social channels become additional sales routes instead of the only one.

A custom e-commerce platform built around your Szczecin business
Szczecin businesses tell us what they sell and how they want to sell it; our engineers turn that into a custom custom e-commerce platform, an admin system and a mobile app shaped around their operations.
Typical clients include multi-brand groups, businesses outgrowing SaaS platforms, companies migrating legacy stores and regulated sectors. Categories that sell especially well online in Poland — fashion, electronics, home and garden and automotive parts — get catalogue structures and filters designed for them.
Before any commitment you get a free requirements meeting, a demo built on your use case and a proposal priced to your budget.
What your custom e-commerce platform includes
These are the building blocks of a custom e-commerce platform. We scope them with you, so you pay for what your Szczecin operation needs.
Custom workflows
Product configurators, made-to-order flows, approvals, contracts and industry-specific rules. Multiple stock points in Poland are supported, so a Szczecin order ships from the nearest one.
Headless architecture
API-first commerce with a fast front end, so web, app, kiosk and marketplace channels share one backend. Revenue reports by product, repeat buyer and delivery area of Szczecin guide stock and marketing decisions.
Multi-entity operations
Multiple brands, companies, warehouses, currencies and tax registrations on one platform. Content and design can follow how customers in Szczecin search and buy, including Polish where you need it.
Deep integrations
ERP, PIM, WMS, CRM, POS, accounting and legacy systems with reliable, monitored data sync. Bulk import and sync tools mean the Szczecin team never re-keys stock, prices or descriptions by hand.
Migration
Move from older platforms with product, customer and order history, SEO-safe redirects and parallel runs. Payment steps are built around BLIK, Przelewy24 bank transfers and Visa and Mastercard, the options shoppers here already trust.
Performance and security
Caching, CDN, load testing, security hardening, audit logs and cloud infrastructure as code. Couriers such as InPost Paczkomat, Poczta Polska and DPD Polska plug in alongside your own fleet for Szczecin orders.
How Szczecin customers pay online
A custom e-commerce platform for Szczecin must support the way people here actually pay: BLIK, Przelewy24 bank transfers, Visa and Mastercard, PayPo deferred payment, Google Pay and cash on delivery.
Provider approval, settlement time and fees differ by business type, so we shortlist gateways with you, then wire up status updates, refunds and reconciliation in PLN — card details stay with the provider.
Business buyers around the city centre often want invoices or bank transfer, while consumers lean on BLIK. We support both flows.
- Przelewy24 bank transfers
- BLIK
- Visa and Mastercard
- Google Pay
- Cash on delivery
- PayPo deferred payment
Shipping, couriers and local delivery in Szczecin
Your custom e-commerce platform can book shipments and share tracking with InPost Paczkomat, Poczta Polska, DPD Polska, DHL Parcel, GLS and Orlen Paczka, or route orders to your own riders and stores across Szczecin.
Delivery rules can price by distance, weight, postcode or zone, offer same-day slots in dense areas, and switch on pickup points or click-and-collect where customers prefer them.
Connectivity in the area — Port of Szczecin — makes regional and national dispatch from Szczecin practical.
Compliance built into your custom e-commerce platform
On tax: Polish VAT is 23% standard with 8% and 5% reduced rates; the national KSeF e-invoicing system becomes mandatory in 2026.
Customer data is handled with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy rules on cookies and marketing consent, enforced by UODO in mind, and the storefront follows the EU Consumer Rights Directive (14-day withdrawal right), the Digital Services Act and, from June 2025, the European Accessibility Act for online shops and the Polish Consumer Rights Act.
Our job is the engineering: price display with tax, invoice numbering, cookie and marketing consent, return and terms pages, role-based access and logs. Legal and tax conclusions stay with your own adviser in Poland.
Szczecin sellers: marketplace plus your own store
Allegro, Amazon.pl and Temu are where many shoppers in Szczecin start, which is why sellers list there. The trade-off is commission, limited branding and rules the platform can change overnight.
Your custom e-commerce platform becomes the hub: marketplaces and social shops become extra outlets fed from one catalogue, while repeat customers buy directly from you at better margins.
Businesses that use NNT Mart in Szczecin
Popular online categories in Poland include fashion, electronics, home and garden, automotive parts, beauty and children's products. Local demand in Szczecin is shaped by port logistics and shared services, so we often design catalogues and B2B ordering around those sectors. In Szczecin, we most often build custom e-commerce platforms for:
Enterprises with complex catalogues
For enterprises with complex catalogues, we usually start with headless architecture, then add SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics and Odoo ERPs once orders are flowing.
Multi-brand groups
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for multi-brand groups in Szczecin, connected to the systems you already use.
Businesses outgrowing SaaS platforms
Businesses outgrowing SaaS platforms get multi-entity operations plus migration workflows tailored to their operations.
Companies migrating legacy stores
We map how companies migrating legacy stores sell today and digitise it end to end — from enquiry and order to payment, dispatch and repeat purchase.
Regulated sectors
For regulated sectors, we usually start with performance and security, then add search engines (Elasticsearch, Algolia) once orders are flowing.
High-traffic retailers
Catalogue, pricing and fulfilment rules designed for high-traffic retailers in Szczecin, connected to the systems you already use.
Mobile commerce in Szczecin
Phones carry most traffic in Poland. Because the platform is API-first, customer, staff and partner mobile apps can be added at any point without rebuilding the backend.
One backend serves the website and the apps, and the apps ship under your own Google Play and App Store accounts — so what you change once appears everywhere.
Push notifications can be timed to UTC+2 so offers reach Szczecin customers when they are awake, and the interface can run in Polish.
- Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP)
- BI and data warehouses
- PIM and DAM
- WMS and 3PL systems
- SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics and Odoo ERPs
- Search engines (Elasticsearch, Algolia)
- POS and store systems
- Identity and SSO
Integrations above are examples; we connect any system that offers a suitable API, database access or approved import and export process.
From first demo to growth in Szczecin
Value first, depth later. For a custom e-commerce platform serving Szczecin, the usual sequence looks like this:
| Phase | What goes live |
|---|---|
| Foundation | Architecture, core commerce, priority integrations and migration. Configured for PLN, BLIK and InPost Paczkomat from the start. |
| Differentiate | Custom workflows, configurators and automation. |
| Optimise | Performance, new channels, apps and continuous enhancement. Reviewed against how Szczecin customers actually buy. |
We track page load and API response times, uptime, order-sync accuracy, manual-work hours saved, release frequency and total cost of ownership on a live dashboard from day one, so Szczecin results are visible, not promised.
