Custom Australian Store Launch Checklist
Set your brand identity, chose your e-commerce platform and fulfillment partner, and generate a customized, step-by-step launch checklist. Customize the checklist online and print it to keep your team aligned.
Register Domain & Store Identity
Finalize your business name, buy a clean .com.au or .com domain, and set up professional forwarding emails.
Connect OGO App to Shopify
Install the official OGO integration app inside your Shopify admin dashboard to enable automatic order routing.
Configure Store Currency (AUD)
Ensure your primary listing currency is set to AUD (Australian Dollars) so Australian shoppers face no hidden conversion fees.
Map GST Tax Settings
Configure tax parameters. In Australia, set up a flat 10% GST on taxable retail sales if you are registered, or configure tax settings on your platform.
Set Up Shipping Profiles & Delivery Bands
Set local flat rates for Australia shipping. Map OGO's typical fulfillment speeds (e.g. 2-5 days for local transit) into store zones.
Order Print Samples & Review Fit
Submit a sample order from OGO to inspect DTG print alignment, packaging presentation, and embroidery quality in-person.
Publish Initial Listings with Size Charts
Sync products, write semantic SEO titles/descriptions, and upload precise size charts (vital for reducing clothing returns).
Place Test Order & Launch Checkout
Enable credit card processors, place a live test transaction at retail price, cancel it, and officially open checkout!
This setup checklist serves as an illustrative timeline organizational tool. Linking automated print apps, managing commercial tax accounts, registering local sole proprietorship or ABN (Australian Business Number) business structures, and setting platform service profiles must be validated against current platform regulations and ATO (Australian Taxation Office) business guidelines.
