In other words what do you need to start you own online shop based on Zen Cart shopping cart.
First of all you will need a domain name. It takes about a couple of minutes and will cost you about $7-10. If you do not know a good domain registrar then Google it.
You will also need a hosting account to put your Zen Cart shop online (just like any other website). You hosting account should include the following:
Minimum/suggested server requirements: PHP 4.3.2 or higher (PHP 4.4.x for optimal performance), Apache 1.3.x and MySQL 3.2.x or higher. Register Globals may be on or off, safe_mode off recommended.
NOTE: Many shipping and payment modules require cURL to be installed/compiled with php.
NOTE: Support for https may be required depending on the payment methods being accepted. The use of SSL during account creation and checkout is recommended.
If you are not sure if your current hosting account supports all the aboxe go and talk to your support team. They should help you.
