- Access a Global Customer Base: Accept payments from anyone, anywhere in the world, without the need for traditional banking intermediaries.
Smart Contract Development & Audits
The core logic of your dCommerce platform resides in smart contracts. Our expert developers write clean, gas-optimized, and secure code. We also provide third-party auditing services to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities before deployment, ensuring your platform is safe.

- Governance & Utility Planning: Define the specific rights and functions your token will grant to its holders.
IP & Digital Rights Management
For creators and media companies, we build blockchain-based systems to manage intellectual property and automate royalty payments. NFTs can represent ownership of digital content, and smart contracts can ensure creators are paid instantly for its use.

From Concept to Commerce: Real-World Success
Luxury Watch Brand Authenticity Platform
Industry: Luxury Retail
Client Overview
A prestigious Swiss watchmaker was facing a significant challenge with sophisticated counterfeit products flooding the market, eroding brand trust and revenue. They also had no visibility or participation in the lucrative secondary resale market, where their products were traded for significant markups.
"Errna didn't just give us a tech solution; they gave us a new business model. We've re-established trust with our customers and unlocked a revenue stream we never thought possible. Their understanding of both luxury and blockchain is unparalleled."
The Problem
The client needed a way to guarantee the authenticity of their watches for both new and existing owners and to create a secure, branded environment for pre-owned sales that could capture a portion of the resale value.
Key Challenges
- Creating a digital proof of ownership that was impossible to forge.
- Building a user-friendly system for customers to verify and transfer ownership.
- Developing a marketplace that could handle high-value transactions securely.
- Ensuring the solution enhanced, rather than detracted from, the luxury brand experience.
Our Solution
We developed a comprehensive dCommerce solution centered around "digital twins" for each physical watch:
- NFT-Based Digital Passports: Upon purchase, each watch was paired with a unique NFT minted on the blockchain, containing its serial number, manufacturing date, and warranty information.
- Mobile Verification App: A sleek mobile app allowed owners to view their NFT passport and transfer it to a new owner upon sale, updating the on-chain record.
- Branded Secondary Marketplace: We built an exclusive online marketplace where verified owners could list their pre-owned watches. The platform's smart contracts automatically verified the authenticity via the NFT passport.
- Automated Royalty System: The marketplace's smart contract was programmed to automatically send a 5% royalty fee from every resale back to the watchmaker, creating a new, perpetual revenue stream.
D2C Coffee Subscription Service Loyalty Platform
Industry: Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) E-commerce
Client Overview
A fast-growing online coffee subscription brand was struggling with high customer acquisition costs (CAC) and a standard loyalty program that failed to create a deep connection with its customers. They wanted to build a true community and turn subscribers into brand advocates.
"We always talked about 'community,' but Errna helped us actually build one. Our customers are now our best marketers. The token program transformed our business from a simple subscription service into a self-sustaining ecosystem."
The Problem
The client's points-based loyalty system was ineffective. They needed a dynamic way to incentivize referrals and repeat purchases while making customers feel like genuine stakeholders in the brand's journey.
Key Challenges
- Designing a token economy that was rewarding but also sustainable.
- Integrating the Web3 loyalty system with their existing Shopify store.
- Making it easy for non-crypto-savvy customers to earn and use tokens.
- Creating real utility for the token beyond simple discounts.
Our Solution
We designed and implemented a tokenized rewards program built on a low-cost Layer-2 network:
- Creation of the 'BEAN' Token: We launched an ERC-20 token called BEAN, which became the currency of their ecosystem.
- "Engage-to-Earn" Smart Contracts: Customers automatically earned BEAN tokens for every subscription renewal, successful referral, and product review.
- Seamless Wallet Integration: We used an embedded wallet solution that linked to a customer's existing store account, allowing them to manage their BEAN tokens without needing to understand private keys or seed phrases.
- Multi-Utility Token Portal: A new section on their website allowed customers to spend BEAN tokens on exclusive coffee blends, limited-edition merchandise, or stake them to vote on which new single-origin coffee the company should source next.
Decentralized Creator Marketplace
Industry: Creator Economy / Digital Goods
Client Overview
An existing online marketplace for digital assets (3D models, stock photos, design templates) was losing its best creators to competitors. Their 30% platform fee was seen as extractive, and creators felt they had no say in the platform's direction or policies.
"The shift to a DAO model saved our business. Errna guided us through every step, from the technical build to communicating the change to our community. Our creators are happier, more engaged, and our platform is growing faster than ever."
The Problem
The client needed to radically realign their business model to be more creator-friendly, reducing fees and introducing a sense of shared ownership to prevent churn and attract top-tier talent.
Key Challenges
- Restructuring the entire fee and payment system using smart contracts.
- Designing a fair and effective governance model for a large, diverse user base.
- Migrating thousands of existing users and assets to the new Web3 platform.
- Ensuring the platform remained performant and easy to use for non-technical creators.
Our Solution
We architected and built a new, fully decentralized marketplace governed by a DAO:
- Low-Fee Smart Contract Escrow: We replaced their centralized payment processor with a smart contract system that held funds in escrow and automatically split payments, taking only a 2% fee to fund the community treasury.
- Governance Token Airdrop: We created a governance token and airdropped it to existing creators based on their historical sales volume, instantly making them owners of the new platform.
- On-Chain Governance Portal: We built a user-friendly portal where token holders could create and vote on proposals related to platform fees, feature development, and marketing initiatives.
- Decentralized Asset Storage: All new digital assets were uploaded to IPFS (InterPlanetary File System), ensuring they were stored securely and weren't controlled by a single company server.

Frequently Asked Questions
Isn't blockchain too slow and expensive for a high-volume e-commerce site?
This is a common and valid concern based on early blockchain technology. However, the landscape has evolved significantly. We build our dCommerce platforms on modern Layer-2 scaling solutions (like Polygon, Arbitrum, or Optimism) which sit on top of base layers like Ethereum. These solutions can process thousands of transactions per second with fees costing mere cents, making them more than capable of handling the demands of a high-volume retail environment while retaining the security of the underlying blockchain.
Will my non-technical customers need to understand crypto wallets and gas fees?
Absolutely not. User experience is our top priority. We specialize in abstracting away the complexity of Web3. We implement solutions like embedded wallets that are created with a simple email or social login, and we can sponsor gas fees so the user experience is completely seamless. To your customer, it will feel just like using a traditional e-commerce site, but with the added benefits of true ownership and unique rewards.
How do you ensure the security of the platform and my customers' assets?
Security is the bedrock of our development process. We follow a multi-pronged approach: 1) Our smart contracts are written by senior developers following best practices to prevent common vulnerabilities. 2) We conduct extensive internal testing and peer reviews. 3) Crucially, before any mainnet deployment, we mandate a comprehensive audit by reputable third-party security firms. 4) We implement best practices for off-chain security and infrastructure management, leveraging our ISO 27001 certification.
What is the real business case or ROI for moving from Web2 to Web3 commerce?
The ROI is tangible and multi-faceted. First, there's direct cost savings by eliminating the 15-30% fees taken by centralized marketplaces and the 2-3% from payment processors. Second, you create new revenue streams, such as royalties from the secondary sale of NFT-linked products. Third, tokenized loyalty programs are proven to dramatically increase customer lifetime value (LTV) and reduce acquisition costs. Finally, you gain priceless assets: direct ownership of your customer data and a community that is financially invested in your brand's success.
How long does it take to build and launch a custom dCommerce platform?
The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the project. A Minimum Viable Product (MVP) with core functionalities can often be launched in 3-4 months. A more complex platform with custom tokenomics, DAO governance, and extensive integrations might take 6-9 months. Our agile development process ensures we deliver value incrementally, allowing you to get to market faster and iterate based on user feedback.
