Web design Birmingham: trade sites and shops
We are a web design agency for Birmingham businesses, run remotely from Casablanca. Birmingham shares our clock in summer and sits one hour behind in winter, so calls fit any part of your day. Trade catalogues, quote flows and shops are scoped with VAT and GDPR before any code is written.

Birmingham, from Casablanca
Why a remote agency works for Birmingham
Web design Birmingham businesses can book without a train ticket: we design, build and launch your site from Casablanca and work in your hours. We are not a Birmingham office. If you want a web design agency Birmingham clients can visit, a local studio fits better.
From late March to late October both cities show the same clock time. In winter Birmingham is on GMT and we are an hour ahead, so your 09:00 is our 10:00. Either way, your whole working day fits inside ours.
Birmingham is the UK’s second-largest city, with a long history of manufacturing, trade and professional services. It is also home to one of the UK’s four assay offices, and its Jewellery Quarter is a well-known cluster of makers and retailers. That shapes the brief: trade prices, quotes, stock that matches the shop, and product pages that carry the details customers expect.
This page sits inside our web design agency services for the UK, part of the UK hub. For the studio itself, see our design service and our web design agency overview.
Trade, tax and trust
What a Birmingham shop has to get right
Trade and consumer prices. Consumers must see prices with VAT. Trade buyers usually want them without it, with a VAT invoice to follow. We build both views, trade accounts and a quote basket. For repeat orders we connect Stripe, PayPal or GoCardless Direct Debit. For a ready-made shop, see RAIN Store.
Most online sales also carry a 14-day cancellation right under the Consumer Contracts Regulations. We build the returns page and the cancellation flow to match.
Jewellery and hallmarks. In the UK, articles of gold, silver, platinum or palladium above small weight limits must be hallmarked by an assay office before sale. A Birmingham jeweller’s shop needs hallmark and metal fields on each product, and a page that explains them. Our own GoldERP works in Moroccan dirhams and has no purity tracking, so a UK catalogue would be a custom build.
What we build
Trade catalogues, quote baskets and shops that match your stock
Many Birmingham businesses sell to other businesses first. We design a catalogue with filters, trade prices behind a login and a quote basket that sends a clean request to your sales team. If stock lives in an ERP, we connect the two, so the shop never promises what the warehouse does not have.
- Trade accounts with their own prices and ex-VAT views
- A quote basket that feeds your CRM or inbox
- Stock and price sync with your ERP
- Hallmark and metal fields for jewellery shops
How a project runs
A weekly rhythm built around your day
Birmingham and Casablanca overlap almost completely, so there is no night shift to cover a time gap. Calls land in your working day, build blocks run between them, and each cycle ends with a preview link and a review. Milestone payments follow delivered work, not the calendar.
- Calls at any point in your working day
- A working preview link every cycle
- Written updates between calls
- Milestone payments tied to delivered work

FAQ
Questions from Birmingham buyers
What businesses in Birmingham ask before they book a call.
No. We work remotely from Casablanca and meet on video. If you need someone at your door, hire a local studio. If you want a fixed quote, working previews and the code at the end, we are a good fit.
2
Does the time difference matter?
Very little. From late March to late October the clocks match. In winter we are one hour ahead. Your whole working day fits inside ours.
3
Can you build a trade portal with quote requests?
Yes. We build trade accounts, ex-VAT prices, a quote basket and a form that goes to your CRM or inbox. If stock lives in an ERP, we connect it, so the site shows what you can ship.
4
Can you sell hallmarked jewellery online?
We can build the product fields and pages. Items above set weights must be hallmarked by an assay office before sale. We add hallmark and metal attributes to each product. Check the exact rules for your range with your assay office.
5
Which payments can a Birmingham shop take?
Stripe and PayPal for cards and wallets, GoCardless for Direct Debit, and others such as Worldpay on request. Card payments go through 3-D Secure, and we test checkout totals against your accountant’s examples.
6
How much does a website cost?
Website Design is $7,500 per website, and Website + SEO is $15,000 per website. Both are fixed prices, quoted up front with no hidden fees. We scope it on a short discovery call, then start within 3 to 5 business days. The quote stays fixed once you accept it.
