Great E-Commerce Localization

E-commerce localisation is adapting an online store for another market: listings, checkout, policies, support content and product media. The work goes to linguists who do this particular job every day, not to a general pool, and each file is checked against the source by a second reviewer before it is sent. This site is built around translation across documents, websites, media and software from one supplier.

The practical part is this: sizes, currencies, tax labels and delivery terms are converted, because a wrong size chart causes returns. It is agreed with you before anyone starts, because the alternative is a first delivery built on a guess and a second round of work to undo it. The translator works into their own first language, which is what keeps long text readable instead of merely correct.

Access is the control that matters, so it is kept to the assigned pair and nobody else. E-commerce localisation often involves material people would not want circulated, so the file is closed to everyone except the pair working on it. Personal records, contracts and pre-filing material arrive daily, so access is closed by default and opened only to the pair on the job. Transfer is encrypted, every person involved is under NDA, and files are deleted on request once you no longer need them held.

Word, PDF, Excel, Google Docs or plain text, or your own template applied so the file comes back ready to use. Headings, tables and numbering are built properly instead of pasted in. The format for e-commerce localisation is agreed at order stage, so the first delivery is the one you can file, send on or publish.

Send the files or a link, say what you need and when, and an exact quote comes back within minutes. Once you approve it the work goes to a linguist suited to the material. Say what the finished text is for - a filing, a launch, a reader - because the brief changes the wording more than the language does. Say what the e-commerce localisation is for when you send it, because a filing, a publication and an internal record are formatted differently. Revisions are free for 30 days after delivery.

Product titles follow each marketplace's own naming rules, which differ from the rules on your own site. Nothing there is an upgrade, and work that falls outside the agreed e-commerce localisation brief is priced separately and only once you have agreed to it. A certified version and a plain working copy can be issued from the same job.

Yes. E-commerce localisation is available in 100+ languages, with every file going to a native speaker of the target language and a reviewer who also reads it. Rarer languages are confirmed as available before the quote goes out, not after you have paid. Where a language is rare, availability is checked before the quote.

Transcription starts at $1 per audio minute and translation at $0.10 per word, with volume pricing once a project passes an agreed size. The quote for e-commerce localisation is worked out from what the material is, how long it runs and how quickly you need it back. Translation is priced per word and certification per page, so you can see which part of the figure is which. E-commerce localisation is quoted from the material you send, so a short job and a long one are worked out the same way. Send the material and the figure comes back within minutes.

Rush delivery within 2 to 24 hours is available, and the delivery time is confirmed in writing before you pay. E-commerce localisation is scheduled against the people who actually do this work, not against a general pool. If a deadline cannot be met you are told at quoting stage, not on the day.

The 99+% accuracy standard comes from human work plus an independent check: one linguist produces the file, and then another verifies it line by line against the source. Dates, figures and proper nouns are checked separately from the prose, because those are the details a reviewing office compares first. What gets checked on e-commerce localisation is the detail a reader would otherwise have to verify alone: names, figures, terms and anything the source left ambiguous. That second pass is what catches a detail that is right in one file and wrong in the next.
