Shopify and Shopify Plus development
Shopify Plus development for stores that have outgrown their apps
Twenty apps, a theme everyone's scared to touch and an ERP sync held together with automations? Time for a proper build. We write Online Store 2.0 themes, Shopify Functions for discounts, shipping and payments, checkout UI extensions, custom apps and ERP integrations on the Admin GraphQL API. It's all version-controlled, tried on a preview theme first and documented. You end up with a faster store that converts better, a smaller monthly app bill and code your team can work with.
- Online Store 2.0 themes
- Shopify Functions and checkout extensions
- Custom apps and Admin GraphQL integrations
- Fifteen years building online stores
Fewer apps
Built-in features and Functions replace paid add-ons
Lower
Monthly app spend once the overlap is gone
Documented
Each integration and change written up
Shopify Plus merchants with checkout, discount or B2B rules the admin can't handle
Brands with a growing app bill and pages slowed down by app scripts
Merchants connecting Shopify to an ERP, PIM or warehouse system
Stores that recently moved from Magento and need ongoing development
Shopify takes the servers off your hands, which is why it works for so many merchants. Growth brings new headaches, though. Every new requirement becomes another app, with its own fee and its own script on every page. The theme is a patchwork of edits from several developers. Stock and orders get to the ERP through a wobbly chain of automations. Checkout rules the business needs can't be set in the admin. And the store gets slower and harder to change every month.

- ›Your app bill keeps going up and some apps do the same job
- ›Changing the theme breaks something somewhere else
- ›Core Web Vitals are failing because of app scripts
- ›Orders, stock or prices drift out of step with the ERP
- ›You need checkout or discount rules the admin can't do
We run a Shopify store like any software project, with version control, preview themes, code review and a changelog.
- Step 01
Review
Theme code, installed apps, scripts on each page, integrations and Core Web Vitals. We find what's slow, doubled up or fragile, and what Shopify can now do itself.
- Step 02
Plan
A written scope covering theme work, apps to remove or replace, custom features and integrations. Fixed price where the scope is clear.
- Step 03
Build
Online Store 2.0 sections and blocks your team can edit, Shopify Functions for discount, shipping and payment rules, checkout UI extensions on Plus, and custom apps where nothing off the shelf fits.
- Step 04
Connect
ERP, PIM, warehouse and accounting integrations on the Admin GraphQL API and webhooks, with retries and logging so you know when something fails.
- Step 05
Release and hand over
Changes are tested on a preview theme, released so they can be reverted, and documented so your team or another developer can pick them up.
Proper development work
We spent fifteen years on Magento, dealing with big catalogues, B2B pricing, payments and integrations. That experience comes with us to Shopify.
We take apps away too
Lots of stores pay for apps that duplicate each other, or for things Shopify now does for free. That's the first thing we look for.
Integrations that tell you when they fail
A sync that quietly stops is worse than one that fails loudly. Ours log, retry and send an alert.
Magento and Shopify in one team
If you run both platforms, or you've moved from one to the other, we understand your data on both sides.
