Pili Vape Co.
A shop that sells a regulated product still needs to be easy to browse. We built a reserve-and-pickup experience for a vape shop in Pili, Camarines Sur, so customers can check stock before they leave home.
Customers of a local shop often travel to the store only to find their flavor or device out of stock. For the shop, answering the same availability questions by message takes time away from serving customers.
Because the products contain nicotine, the site also has to handle age verification and warnings responsibly, in both English and Filipino, without making the browsing experience feel heavy.
We built a catalog-first storefront where every item shows its flavor family, size, nicotine strength and live stock status. Instead of an online checkout, customers reserve an item and pick it up within 24 hours, paying at the counter with a valid ID.
An age gate with bilingual warnings is the first thing visitors see, and the rest of the site is designed to be clear, fast and easy to use on a phone.
browse, check stock, reserve
Catalog with live stock
Products are grouped by flavor family and show price, volume, nicotine strength and an In stock or Out of stock label, so customers know before they come.
Flavor Finder
Three quick questions point first-time and returning customers to the flavor family that suits how they like it.
Reserve and pick up
Customers leave a name and number. No payment is taken online; items are held for 24 hours and paid for at the counter.
Journal
Guides and updates, such as picking a first flavor and device maintenance basics, give customers useful information and give the shop searchable content.
responsible by design
Age verification
A full-screen gate asks visitors to confirm they are 18 or older before the site is usable, with the rest of the page locked until they respond.
Bilingual warnings
Nicotine warnings appear in English and Filipino at entry and in the footer.
Shop information
Opening hours, location, contact details and clear policy pages make the shop easy to trust and easy to find.
Search-friendly setup
Store structured data with address and opening hours, a sitemap, and a robots file that keeps the admin area out of search results.
Fewer wasted trips
Customers check stock online before heading to the shop, so they arrive knowing the item is there.
Less back-and-forth messaging
Availability questions are answered by the catalog itself, freeing the team to focus on customers in the shop.
Responsible presentation
Age verification and clear bilingual warnings are built into the first interaction instead of added as an afterthought.
A local presence online
A site that clearly says where the shop is and how to reserve gives it a stronger footing in local search.
