Software stack to launch a D2C e-commerce brand in India
Start with a storefront you can launch this week, wire in an India payment gateway that accepts UPI and cards, and connect a shipping aggregator so orders actually reach customers across PIN codes. Then add WhatsApp and email so you can recover abandoned carts and bring buyers back. Do not over-build: get store, payments, and shipping working with real orders before layering retention automation.
