For such a purpose, offline payment methods can be used in Ecwid. E.g. the 'Phone order' payment option.
When an offline payment is used, no actual payment is supposed to take place at checkout. Instead of it, a customer goes through all checkout steps and places an order by pressing the 'Place order' button - after that a customer sees the order confirmation page, the order is saved in your store and email notifications are sent. Instantly, it becomes visible in your Ecwid control panel along with all necessary details about customer and ordered items. Such orders get "Queued" status, which indicates that the order was placed successfully, but you haven't received any funds yet. Again, in case of using an offline payment method, a customer isn't charged at the checkout, nothing asks them to submit a credit card payment or any other real-time payment transaction in your store. The payment itself is expected to be done outside Ecwid after the order is placed. As soon as the customer pays for it and you receive the money, you can change the order status to 'Accepted' and ship the ordered items to a customer.

Also, without having a payment part at all.. basically just like the example site.
