Madrid.

The registered office

Polargate's registered office is Calle Electrónica 6, 28027 Madrid. The legal entity is POLARGATE, S.L., CIF B24895005, so a Spanish company gets a Spanish invoice in euros with Spanish VAT and none of the paperwork of contracting abroad. Pedro Ciordia, founder and CTO, leads the architecture and the code review on every project. We work from Madrid and Amsterdam, in Spanish, English and Dutch.

What Spanish companies ask us for

• BUILD: corporate websites, e-commerce, internal portals, mobile apps, AI features and integrations. Recent Spanish work includes a trilingual golf club site with an official handicap calculator, a premium tableware shop rebuilt off WooCommerce, and an operations platform for a hotel refurbishment company.
• GROW: SEO and AI-search visibility, content, paid media and analytics. Our Spanish sites are pre-rendered as static HTML, so ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Google read real text instead of an empty JavaScript shell.
• CARE: monthly maintenance and evolution through a multi-tenant ServiceDesk, with an hour balance the client can see and an autonomous fix agent that handles routine work.

The Spanish details that decide whether a project works

Building for Spain is not building in English and translating afterwards. What we have already solved here:

• Card payments through a Spanish bank. We integrated an Abanca virtual terminal operated by Cecabank (CECA protocol, not Redsys or Stripe): amount re-read server-side, signature verification, anti-replay operation numbers, idempotent notifications and a documented refund procedure. The first real charge went through in August 2026.
• Shipping the way Spanish carriers actually charge. Weight by zone for Madrid, peninsula and Baleares, Correos for light parcels, preparation fees, VAT applied per line, free-shipping thresholds that do not quietly give away margin, and Canarias, Ceuta and Melilla handled explicitly.
• Regional regulation before marketing. For a rural property in the Sierra de Guadarrama we mapped what the holiday-rental rules of the Comunidad de Madrid allow before writing a single line of commercial copy, then built the strategy around products that could legally be sold.
• Spanish that reads as Spanish. European Spanish written natively, ES and EN versions (French too when needed) with localised URLs per language, reciprocal hreflang and a canonical per language. No machine translation bolted on top.
• Sector data, not filler. A course handicap calculator built on official federation slope and course rating data, with WHS rounding and Spanish decimal notation, is the level of specificity we work at.

How a company in Madrid or the rest of Spain starts

Every engagement starts with a paid, fixed-price Discovery Sprint. You get the scope, the data model, the risks and a real quote, and the document is yours whether or not you continue with us. The quote is private and comes in writing. The Care retainer scales with the surface being maintained.

Working with us in practice

Kickoff, discovery workshops and delivery reviews can happen in person, in Madrid or at your office. If you run an international operation with a Spanish arm, we can run the project in your language and deliver the Spanish side from here. Everything we build lives in infrastructure you own: your Supabase project, your GitHub repository, your Vercel account, your domain and your DNS. If you stop working with us, nothing stops working.
