Sonee Sports goes live with Shopify eCommerce platform & BML Payment Gateway

CloudFronts is extremely delighted to announce that Sonee Sports, one of the largest retail company, operating a chain of sports goods stores in Maldives, has gone live with Shopify eCommerce platform integrated with Bank of Maldives payment gateway.

Bank of Maldives (BML) is the leading financial institution in Maldives recognized locally as “the national bank” and its payment gateway integration with eCommerce website allows Maldives businesses to conduct their financial transactions seamlessly.

We would like to give you a chronology of stages as to how we managed to resolve Sonee Sports’ complex business situation. It must be noted that before migration to Shopify, Sonee Sports was using ‘BigCommerce’ as their e-commerce platform. However, the major challenge they were facing was that BigCommerce does not support BML payment gateway. The client was using PayPal and as many of us are aware, PayPal charges very high transaction commission fees and given the scale at which Sonee Sports operates, it significantly reduced the retail giant’s revenue share.

As a solution to above, CloudFronts suggested and helped Sonee Sports to choose right eCommerce platform (Shopify) which supports BML payment gateway and is scalable to future needs like integration with Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations (Microsoft ERP), Market place, Store picks and B2B sales. Not only this, the client can also plug and play multiple applications and plugins from the Shopify marketplace very easily.

Shopify is simple and easy to use e-commerce platform that allows retail stores to establish and develop an online business, to launch it and grow. This comprehensive solution has virtually everything a retail store would expect from a website builder.

1. Create and customize your store;
2. Sell your products/services in different ways, including websites, social media, mobile apps, and more;
