How to create an online store on Qeersh
Sign up and name your store
With just your email; your store gets an address like shop.qeersh.com within a minute, and you can connect your own domain later.
Add your products and pick a theme
A photo, a price and a description for each product, with sizes and colours if you have them. Then choose one of 17 free themes made for your kind of business.
Turn on payment and shipping
Cash on delivery works from the start. Set shipping prices per governorate, and connect a payment gateway and a carrier on your own account whenever you like.
Share your store link and start selling
Share the link on your pages, and show your products on Facebook, Instagram, Google and TikTok from the same store.
What do you need to create an online store?
Ways to create an online store
You have three common options:
- A ready-made store platform such as Qeersh: sign up, add your products and start selling the same day, while the platform handles hosting, security, updates, payment gateways and shipping.
- WordPress with WooCommerce: flexible, but it needs hosting, paid plugins and ongoing maintenance, and often a developer.
- A custom-built store: suited only to large companies, as it costs far more and takes far longer.
For most merchants in Egypt and the Gulf, a ready-made platform is the fastest and cheapest.
How much does an online store cost?
On Qeersh you can start free: no monthly subscription and no setup fee, and you pay only 1 EGP on each order you receive. As your orders grow, paid plans remove the per-order fee from 499 EGP a month. Your other costs are your products, shipping and the fees of the payment gateway you choose.
Cash on delivery without losses
Cash on delivery is the most used way to pay in Egypt, but it costs the merchant when a customer refuses the order. So Qeersh scores the risk of each order, sends the customer an automatic WhatsApp confirmation and lets you ask for a deposit on risky orders.
Online payment and shipping
Connect your own account with gateways such as Paymob, Fawry, Kashier and EasyKash in Egypt, or Tap, Moyasar, Tabby and Tamara in the Gulf, and the money reaches you directly; Qeersh never holds it. For shipping: prices by governorate, and labels and tracking with Bosta, Aramex, J&T and Mylerz.
A store in Arabic and English from day one
Every Qeersh store works in Arabic and English, is run entirely from your phone and supports 8 countries with their addresses, phone numbers and currencies.

Questions about creating an online store
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. Your store starts on the free Starter plan, and every paid plan starts with a 14-day free trial without payment details.
How does the Starter per-order fee work?
You top up an order balance of at least the minimum and each order takes its fee. When it runs out, the store pauses new orders until you top up.
Where does my sales money go?
To your own gateway or carrier account. Qeersh never holds your customers’ money.
Can I change plans later?
Yes. Upgrades are immediate and you pay only for the remaining days; downgrades start next period and never delete data.
Can I sell in Saudi Arabia, the UAE and the Gulf?
Yes. Qeersh supports 8 countries with their addresses, phone numbers and currencies, and Gulf gateways such as Tap, Moyasar, Tabby and Tamara.
Are the themes free?
Yes, every theme is free and available on every plan. How many you can install in your store at once depends on the plan.
Can I sell in my shop too?
Yes. The Business plan includes a point of sale for your shop that uses the same stock as your online store.
Can I create an online store for free?
Yes. Qeersh’s Starter plan has no monthly subscription and no setup fee; you pay only a small fee on each order you receive.
Do I need coding or design skills?
No. You pick a ready theme and change its colours, images and text in the editor without code, and run everything from your phone.
How long does it take to create an online store?
You can sign up in a minute, and add your first products and publish the store the same day.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes. Your store starts with an address on qeersh.com, and you can connect your own domain in the settings, with a free security certificate.
Does cash on delivery work from day one?

How do I create an online store in Egypt?
On Qeersh: sign up with your email, add your products with photos and prices, pick one of 17 free themes, set your shipping zones and prices, then share your store link. Cash on delivery works from the start, and you can connect Paymob, Fawry, Kashier or EasyKash on your own account. Starter is free at 1 EGP per order.
Do I need a commercial register to start my online store?
Not to create your store on Qeersh or to sell with cash on delivery and transfers. Online payment gateways such as Paymob may ask for a commercial register or tax card, depending on the gateway.
Can I sell on Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and TikTok with my store?
Yes. Show your catalog on Facebook, Instagram, Google and TikTok, and record orders that reach you on WhatsApp or in messages from “New order” in your dashboard, so they share the same stock, shipping and reports.
How do I protect my store from fake cash-on-delivery orders?
Qeersh scores the risk of each order, asks the customer to confirm, can cancel unconfirmed orders automatically, and lets you ask for a deposit on high-risk orders or block a number from cash on delivery.
