No experience with Arxive. The easy way on any host is with drush.

I cannot see from the Arxive website if they provide drush. They claim to be a Drupal specialist. If that claim is true, they certainly provide drush. Otherwise you would need to try a different host (though normally Drupal hosting is a bit more expensive) or install it yourself. Most hosts do provide command-line access, though sometimes you have to ask for it. Methods of installing Drupal not using command line are possible to get working, but usually turn out to be rather painful in my experience, so working on command line is highly recommended if you can.

Installing it with drush takes about 60-120 seconds. This is a very detailed breakdown of the process https://www.drupal.org/node/1296408#comment-7359650 which assumes you have a database and database user already set up.

A common mistake is to install Drupal then try to install Commerce Kickstart. Commerce Kickstart is a complete distribution which includes Drupal core and cannot normally be installed on top of an existing Drupal installation.
