Website creation for pharmacies — ONP compliance, Click & Collect, online parapharmacy

Community pharmacists, parapharmacies, on-call pharmacies… The website creation for pharmacies is subject to particularly strict rules in France — it is one of the rare professions where launching a website requires prior authorization from the Regional Health Agency (ARS) and a declaration to the National Pharmacy Council (ONP). 170 pharmacies search for a provider every month according to Ubersuggest. Our approach for this regulated sector is detailed below.

Why your pharmacy needs a website (and should anticipate ARS authorization)

The community pharmacy market has been undergoing a major transformation since 2013 (when France legalized online sales of OTC medications), and further accelerated in 2020–2024 with the rise of Click & Collect and teleconsultation: more than 40% of French pharmacies now have a website (National Council of the Order of Pharmacists, 2024). For the remaining 60%, the visibility gap is starting to hurt: patients look up their pharmacy, their on-call schedule, and their services (vaccination, equipment rental, compounded preparations) on Google before making the trip.

The prior ARS authorization and ONP declaration are administrative procedures that take 2 to 3 months on average. We guide you through the entire file (preparation + follow-up) in parallel with site development, so the launch is synchronized with obtaining authorization. No early launch — risk of ONP reprimand and site closure.

Our "Pharmacy 360" method in 5 steps

1. Scoping + administrative support (2–3 months in parallel) : ONP ethics audit, preparation of the ARS authorization request file (CERFA form, registration certificate, pharmacy floor plan, description of online services), application follow-up, declaration to the CDOP (Departmental Council of the Order of Pharmacists).
2. Showcase site design + Click & Collect (1 month) : homepage (hours + on-call duty + services), service pages (vaccination, medical equipment rental, compounding, homeopathy/aromatherapy advice), real-time on-call calendar display via schema.org Pharmacy, prescription Click & Collect form.
3. E-commerce parapharmacy (optional, +2 weeks) : parapharmacy catalog limited to your physical stock (cosmetics, hygiene, nutrition, baby care), Stripe/PayPal payment, Mondial Relay/Colissimo delivery, Click & Collect, schema.org Product. No sale of prescription medications (prohibited).
4. Prescription Click & Collect module : the patient scans their prescription, you prepare it, the patient picks it up without waiting. Reduces counter wait times, builds patient loyalty, frees up pharmacy technicians.
5. Local SEO + educational health content : GBP optimization ("Pharmacy" category with precise attributes, opening hours + real-time on-call status), educational articles on sleep, seasonal allergies, nutrition, vaccinations, infant care — captures informational SEO without providing individual medical advice (prohibited outside the dispensing counter).
