What it is
Shopify looks after hosting, security and payments. That leaves the part that decides sales: how the store presents your products, and how quickly a shopper gets from an ad to a paid order. A theme bought off the shelf gets a store open, but it rarely fits a catalog with variants, bundles, subscriptions or wholesale buyers, and the gaps get filled with apps that slow every page down.
We design and build Shopify stores around your catalog and your customers. You get a store your team can run day to day, with the settings, the apps and the custom code written down at handover.
What is included
- Design. Page designs in Figma for the home page and the collection, product, cart and content templates, reviewed with you before any code is written.
- Theme build. A custom theme or a customised premium theme on Online Store 2.0, with sections and blocks your team can rearrange, and metafields for product details that vary by item.
- Catalog setup. Products, variants, collections, filters and search configured, or imported from your current platform.
- Apps and integrations. Reviews, subscriptions, email, loyalty, and your ERP or 3PL connected. Where no app fits, a custom app built on Shopify's APIs.
- Payments, shipping and tax. Shopify Payments or your own gateway, wallets such as Shop Pay, Apple Pay and Google Pay, and shipping and tax settings for each country you sell to.
- Selling abroad. Shopify Markets set up with local currency, language and domain for each market you choose.
- Checkout. Checkout branding on every plan. On Shopify Plus, checkout extensions and Shopify Functions for discount, delivery and payment rules.
Best for
- Brands moving to Shopify from WooCommerce, Magento, Wix or a custom build
- Amazon sellers opening a direct-to-consumer store beside their marketplace channel
- Stores whose theme has been patched by several freelancers and slowed down along the way
- Businesses selling to the US, the UK, the EU, Canada, Australia or the Middle East from one store
Where we start
With a discovery call and a written scope. We look at your current store or catalog, your traffic sources and the apps you pay for, then list the templates, the integrations and the data to move. You get a fixed quote and a timeline. Design comes first, then the build on an unpublished theme you can preview at any time, then launch.
Before launch
Every template is tested on current iPhone and Android phones and on desktop browsers. We place test orders through each payment method, check tax and shipping for each market, set up redirects from your old URLs, and confirm that analytics and ad pixels record each purchase once. The domain moves when that list is clear.
After launch
The handover document covers the theme settings, every app and what it does, and the custom code. Stores that want ongoing help move to Shopify Store Management. Others take the theme in-house, and the documentation is written for that.
