Wales rules for a business with a website
Some homework for Tircoed businesses before the website goes live:
- You must not send marketing emails or texts to individuals without specific consent; there is a limited exception for your own previous customers, often called the soft opt-in. ICO: email marketing
- When you sell online, you must tell the customer they can cancel their order up to 14 days after it is delivered, and they do not need to give a reason. GOV.UK: online and distance selling
- Under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024, whose rules on this came into force on 6 April 2025, you must not commission fake reviews or pretend to be a consumer leaving one, and if you publish consumer reviews you have to take appropriate steps to make sure they are genuine. GOV.UK: unfair commercial practices

Answers for Wales business owners
Tircoed is small. Do I really need a website?
Yes. Customers from across Swansea search before they travel, and a website is how they find you. It also answers the basics (hours, prices, location) without a phone call.
Will the website work on phones?
Yes, it is built to work on phones first, with buttons that are easy to tap and pages that open fast.
Can the website be an online shop?
Yes. The plan can be an online shop with a catalogue, a basket and online payment, for the same £69 a month.
My customers come from Penllergaer and Grovesend as well. Can I say so?
Yes. Email us the towns you serve (for example Penllergaer, Grovesend and Gorseinon) and they go on a service area page.
How many email accounts do I get?
Email on your own domain comes with the plan, such as info@yourbusiness: unlimited accounts, 5 GB of storage in total, webmail and spam filtering.
Do we need to meet?
We work online from start to finish. You email your logo, photos and texts, and you approve the site on a temporary link.
Do I pay anything to get started?
No. No setup fee: you only pay the £69 monthly fee once you have approved your website. No lock-in contract. You can stop the service whenever you need to.
