Choosing a platform

Tiendanube usually suits simple operations in Argentina; Shopify, several countries or many integrations; a headless store, when brand experience is the priority and you can invest more upfront.

Payment methods

Offer the options your customers already use and check the costs of each one depending on payout time and installments. Show on the product page which methods you accept to avoid surprises at checkout.

Shipping and returns

  • Costs and delivery times visible before checkout.
  • Pickup options if you have them.
  • A clear exchange policy, with steps and deadlines.
  • Order tracking by email.

Price without national taxes

For a price that includes only 21% Argentine VAT, divide by 1.21. Combining rates is valid only when they use the same net base. Law 27,743 introduced Argentina's Consumer Tax Transparency Regime; confirm the applicable taxes and display with your accountant.

Product pages that sell

  1. Photos that show use, detail and scale.
  2. A clear title with the product type.
  3. Concrete measurements, materials and care.
  4. A size guide at the right moment.
  5. Product FAQs.

Sales events

Prepare Hot Sale, Cyber Monday and year-end 30 days ahead: stock, creative, website changes and emails. Measure every day during the event.
