An online store for florists that knows cut-offs, ribbons and Valentine’s Day

No card needed. The Free plan has no time limit and covers up to 50 orders.

Sound familiar?

  • An order for tomorrow morning arrives at midnight and you can no longer make it.
  • The card message is hidden in an order note, and with two bouquets the messages get mixed up.
  • Fresh flowers left with the courier on Friday and spent the weekend in a depot.

How Portican solves it

  • Cut-off and delivery dates. Customers only see days and time slots you can meet, with public holidays and non-delivery days taken into account.
  • Card and ribbon kept separate. Every bouquet has its own message, and the ribbon inscription has its own field.
  • Stricter rules for fresh goods. A single such item narrows the delivery dates for the whole order.
  • Production screen. What to prepare and how many, for whom and for when, including the card message.
  • Local delivery nearby, a courier for the rest. Shipping by postcode and pickup from several shops.
  • Preparing for the season. Valentine’s Day, International Women’s Day, All Souls’ Day or Christmas compared with last year in units, with a suggested quantity to order.

Frequently asked questions

Can I set how many orders we can handle in a day?

Portican does not have a daily capacity setting yet. The countdown to the order cut-off does hide itself, though, once open orders exceed a number you set.

Does the recipient get a message?

As the buyer chooses: on the morning of delivery, straight away, or not at all.

Can I sell products from a wholesaler?

Yes, if the supplier has an XML feed. Prices and availability are updated once a day.
