How to start shopify site for indian customers

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A developer is setting up a Shopify store for a client selling kids’ toys and health/beauty products to Indian customers. They have several questions:

Account & Payment Setup:

  • Whether the client should create the Shopify account and share login credentials
  • Integrating Razorpay payment gateway for Indian customers, and if other payment gateways are available
  • Confusion about pricing: attempted to pay for Basic plan (₹20.00 INR) using UPI, but encountered Rs. 5000/- Autopay request in GPay

Customization & Transfer:

  • Asking if each part of the Dawn theme can be customized
  • How to transfer the completed site to the client’s account after development

The discussion appears to be seeking guidance on initial setup procedures, payment integration options for the Indian market, and proper workflow for client handoff.
