Developed entirely in-house and drawing on over a decade of e-commerce experience with some incredible clients, our unique e-commerce platform allows us to create truly bespoke websites for some amazing businesses…

Mothership is an e-commerce platform and content management system that Message has been developing over the last decade or so. It's in use by several high-profile and highly successful websites turning over millions of pounds and handling huge volumes of orders. It's powerful, flexible and totally unique to Message.
Mothership is stable, mature and proven, and its feature list supports a very wide array of business types and processes. Naturally, it allows you to manage all your web content, create products, sell them, control stock, handle fulfillment and returns, campaigns, discounts, gifting, mailing lists, business reporting and so on.
It can also give you fully integrated Electronic Point Of Sale (EPOS), giving you total control over stock both on and off-line. With a touch-screen till, barcode printing, scanners and brilliant receipt printing, it's pretty cool!
Oh, and it can do all that in as many languages and currencies as you like, by the way.
Every site built on Mothership is unique. They're built on the same platform, but each is designed and implemented to the business and user requirements of the specific client. They're bespoke.
Web designers who use off-the-shelf e-commerce software (even open-source projects) are generally tied by the limitations of the system. Message is a different kind of company. Because every line of Mothership's code was created by our talented developers here at Message it means we have total flexibility and control over the whole system.
The answer to even the most complicated request can therefore be 'yes' rather then 'sorry, the software doesn't do that'. If Mothership doesn't do what you need we simply build it in to your exact requirements.
Our focus on usability drives us towards making an e-commerce system that can be run by mere Humans, not the super-intelligent aliens that some systems require.
Or, to continue the space theme, E-commerce, it's not rocket science!
