Website with a client portal: orders, documents and payments behind one sign-in

Clients ask where their order is, where the documents are and when to pay, and managers answer by email. We add a customer portal to your website where clients see their own data themselves.

What a client portal on a website looks like

If clients regularly ask for an order status, a statement, an invoice or a contract, part of that work can be removed. In a customer portal the client signs in under their own name and sees their orders, documents and payments. Managers are freed from repeated questions, and the client gets an answer at any time. See also: corporate portal.

  • For service and B2B companies. The client sees service statuses, invoices and closing documents in one place.
  • For companies with repeat orders. The portal keeps the order history and lets the client repeat an order without a call.

Approximate display: images and texts are chosen as an example. In your project the features, design and architecture will be different, built for your goals.

Website with a client portal — + from €2 490

Your website gets a personal portal: clients log in and see their orders, documents and payments. Fewer calls and emails asking “how is my order doing?”

For International Lyceum Discovery School we built role-based portals and a CRM. For duck.credit we built a fintech platform with a portal, scoring, KYC and a CRM. These are different industries, but the principle is the same: everyone signs in and sees their own. See also: web app and user accounts, turnkey platform.

The price is known upfront, and the code, domain and accounts are registered in your name. Infrastructure costs €0 at the start (Cloudflare, GitHub, Supabase, Resend). We have already built portals with roles in real projects and reuse ready modules from them.

  • A portal inside a ready-made CRM or your own. A portal in a ready-made CRM launches faster but looks like that CRM and is limited by its plan. Your own portal in your style is more flexible and belongs to you.

Good for: companies with regular clients and repeat orders · Businesses that regularly send clients contracts and acts · Those who want to show work status without manual emails

How we work

How client portal development works

The steps switch automatically, or click any of them to read more.

First we find out what clients want to see and where to get that data: CRM, accounting, spreadsheets. Then we design the portal, create the visual design and connect it to the data sources. The timeline depends on scope and is given after the brief. It counts from the moment we receive the brief, materials and access. See also: custom CRM for your processes.

1. Brief

A short 15-minute questionnaire: what the business is, who it is for, what you need and by when. By voice, text or a call.

  • We ask only what affects the result and the price
  • Materials (logo, photos, texts) can be sent later
  • We reply the same business day: what we offer, what it costs and how long it takes
