Simplicity for the Buyer

hula is a solution for small to medium-sized online business that has many of the features you might expect from larger online retailers. Your shoppers will feel right at home in hula's familiar and easy browsing and checkout process — and confident that when buying your products they are buying from someone who takes their online business seriously.

And with CarBar, hula's visual running total of products and prices that follows the purchaser throughout their shopping experience, your customer knows exactly what they are buying and how much it is going to cost.

And hula is designed with repeat customers in mind. With Shopper Accounts, your customers can have their purchase information securely saved, such shipping addresses and order history. hula does not store credit card information which makes it super-secure and gives you peace of mind knowing that your customers payment data can not be compromised.

eCommerce 101 for the Buyer

The hula "eStore" system leads your shoppers through three basic steps. They'll...
  • browse a catalog of your products — complete with photos, detailed descriptions, and pricing.
  • choose items they want to buy and fill their carts.
  • check out and pay with credit cards through a secure interface.
  • track shipping if desired and wait for product to arrive

Simplicity for the Seller

As a store owner your time is valuable. And managing your online store should be as easy as tagging a product and placing on a shelf — with hula, it is.

hula's intuitive product management is the core to keeping your online store running smoothly. Among other things, hula allows you to simply add, delete, update, show and hide products, create coupons and sales, establish product relationships and select featured items. hula also provides an incredibly easy way to categorize your products so that with a few simple clicks you can create a Smart Category to automatically display products meeting certain criteria such as "all items less than $50" or "all items recently added to the cart". hula allows you as the seller to better manage your sales by specifically targeting items in your inventory — hula helps you move product.

hula also supports a myriad of shipping possibilities, from real-time UPS and FedEx quotes to fixed flat rate models. If your needs are very specific, our team can also provide a custom shipping module for you.

The hula team has been helping companies build businesses on the Internet since online shopping began — and we can make it happen for your company too.

eCommerce 101 for the Seller

The hula "eStore" system makes managing your sale easy. You'll
  • receive a notification email (if desired) that there has been a purchase in the cart (only approved credit card transactions consummate a sale)
  • login to your secure administration area to view and process the order
  • ship it and provide tracking information to customer (via automatic email)

hula comes in three flavors:

Catalog Only
For businesses that don't want the entire transaction to occur online, hula catalog provides all the robust features of hulacart's product management without the checkout process. Your customers can view your products and contact you for details about making a purchase or swing by your physical location to buy it.

Basic eShopping
Our straightforward eShopping solution comes standard with secure processing of credit cards, built-in PayPal™ support or bank integration, and flat-rate shipping. All built on the powerful hula product management system.

Advanced eShopping
hula's modular system allows for a wide variety of advanced needs. Your customers can browse, shop, and check out, all while benefiting from integrated real-time shipping quotes, online coupons, additional payment gateways, shopper accounts, and more. You get the solution you need with hula, and it can grow with you as your online business grows.
