Built a e-commerce store with ZenCoder?
We'll make it production-ready.
E-commerce apps handle money and personal data — there's zero margin for error. AI tools build great-looking product pages and shopping carts, but the critical details — inventory management, payment security, order processing, and shipping calculations — need professional attention before you take real orders.
E-Commerce Store challenges in ZenCoder apps
Building a e-commerce store with ZenCoder is a great start — but these challenges need attention before launch.
Payment security and PCI compliance
You're handling credit card transactions. While Stripe and similar services handle PCI compliance on their end, your integration must not expose card data, must verify webhook signatures, and must handle failed payments gracefully.
Inventory management
What happens when two customers buy the last item simultaneously? AI tools don't implement inventory locking or race condition prevention. Overselling damages trust and creates costly fulfillment problems.
Order processing pipeline
Orders move through states: pending, confirmed, processing, shipped, delivered. Each transition triggers actions (emails, inventory updates, accounting entries). AI tools build the checkout but not the order lifecycle.
Shipping and tax calculation
Real shipping costs vary by weight, destination, and carrier. Sales tax varies by jurisdiction. These calculations need to be accurate and up-to-date — getting them wrong is either illegal (tax) or margin-killing (shipping).
Performance under load
Product launches and sales events spike traffic. Your site needs to handle 10x normal load without crashing. Image optimization, caching, and CDN configuration are essential for a fast shopping experience.
What we check in your ZenCoder e-commerce store
Common ZenCoder issues we fix
Beyond e-commerce store-specific issues, these are ZenCoder patterns we commonly fix.
Automated reviews miss context-specific security requirements
ZenCoder's automated code reviews apply generic security heuristics. They can miss security risks specific to your domain — healthcare data handling, financial regulations, or multi-tenant isolation requirements.
Generated implementations follow generic patterns, not project conventions
ZenCoder implements features using widely-used patterns from its training rather than the specific conventions, abstractions, and service layers established in your codebase.
Refactored code may break runtime behavior
Automated refactoring changes function signatures, variable names, and module boundaries. Without comprehensive test coverage, these changes can introduce regressions that aren't caught until production.
Review feedback applied without full context
When ZenCoder applies code review suggestions autonomously, it can address the feedback literally without considering the broader implications of the change on related modules.

Frequently asked questions
Can I build a e-commerce store with ZenCoder?
ZenCoder is a great starting point for a e-commerce store. It handles the initial scaffolding well, but e-commerce stores have specific requirements — payment security and pci compliance and inventory management — that need professional attention before launch.
What issues does ZenCoder leave in e-commerce stores?
Common issues include: automated reviews miss context-specific security requirements, generated implementations follow generic patterns, not project conventions, refactored code may break runtime behavior. For a e-commerce store specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for payment security and pci compliance.
How do I make my ZenCoder e-commerce store production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most ZenCoder-built e-commerce stores, the critical path is: security review, then fixing core flow reliability, then deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
How much does it cost to fix a ZenCoder-built e-commerce store?
Our code audit is $19 and gives you a complete report of issues. Fixes start at $199 with our Fix & Ship plan. For larger e-commerce store projects, we provide a custom fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing.
