Interspire development
Our Interspire development services help businesses that run Interspire Shopping Cart or Interspire Email Marketer, with theme design, customisation, module development, fixes, maintenance and planned migration when the platform no longer meets your needs.
Share a few details and our team will call you back within one working day.
Interspire is known for two self-hosted PHP products: Interspire Shopping Cart, an all-in-one online store application for selling physical or digital goods, and Interspire Email Marketer, used to send newsletters and campaign emails from your own server. Interspire development means designing, customising, extending and maintaining these installations so they keep serving the business that depends on them.
Stores and mailing setups built on Interspire are still in daily use, and their owners face similar questions: how to change the look of the storefront, how to add a feature the software does not include, how to keep it running on newer servers, and when it makes sense to move to another platform. Because these are self-hosted systems, they need someone who understands their PHP code and database, not just the admin panel.
For Interspire Shopping Cart, we design custom storefront templates or convert your design files into an Interspire theme, adjust product pages, checkout steps and category layouts, and build custom modules for features such as special pricing rules, extra shipping options or payment gateway connections. We also fix errors, clean up slow databases and secure installations that have not been maintained for some time.
For Interspire Email Marketer, we help with installation and server configuration, subscriber list imports, email template design, sending settings, bounce handling and links to your website sign-up forms. Good deliverability depends on correct server and domain setup, so we check authentication records such as SPF and DKIM along with the software itself.
Older self-hosted software can run into trouble when hosting providers retire old PHP versions, when payment gateways change their APIs, or when security patches stop arriving. We start with an audit of your installation: its version, past customisations, server and data. From that you get a clear picture of the risks and options before any money is spent on changes.
If the store still serves you well, we stabilise it, apply fixes and keep it maintained. If it is holding you back, we plan a migration to a current e-commerce platform such as WooCommerce or a custom Laravel store, moving products, customers, order history and URLs with redirects so search rankings and customer accounts carry over. Email lists and templates can likewise move to a newer marketing automation tool when that suits you better.
Whichever route you choose, the decision should rest on facts rather than guesswork: what the current setup costs to keep running, what it cannot do, and what a move would involve. Our audit report sets these points out in plain language, so you can compare staying and moving on equal terms.
Interspire has been part of our service line for years, alongside our wider PHP, e-commerce and email marketing work. Our developers are comfortable reading and modifying established PHP applications, which is exactly what Interspire customisation demands, and our design and marketing teams can help with the storefront look, product content and campaigns.
We keep your data private and sign an NDA on request. Every change is tested on a copy of your store before it goes live, and you keep ownership of your code, data and customisations. With more than ten years in business and an ISO 9001:2015 certified process, we give you an honest assessment of your Interspire setup, a written quote and a free first consultation.

FAQ
Straight answers to what clients usually ask first.
Yes. We maintain, customise and fix existing Interspire Shopping Cart installations. For a brand new store we usually recommend a platform with active development, and we explain why before you decide.
Cost depends on the version you run, the condition of earlier customisations, the complexity of the feature or design required and the testing needed. An initial audit lets us give an accurate quote.
Yes. We plan the migration of products, categories, customers, order history and images, set up redirects from old URLs and test the new store thoroughly before switching.
We check server configuration, domain authentication records such as SPF and DKIM, bounce processing and list hygiene. Deliverability also depends on content and sending habits, which we advise on as well.
We work on a copy of your store, restrict access to authorised developers, take backups before every change and sign an NDA on request. Your data stays yours throughout.
Yes. We provide fixes, updates, monitoring and small changes under an agreed support plan, or on request when something needs attention.
