From concept to launch — we design, develop, and optimise Shopify stores that look exceptional, load fast, and turn visitors into customers. No templates. No shortcuts.
Every Shopify build we deliver is a complete, production-ready store — not a rushed theme install.
Bespoke Shopify theme designed from scratch to match your brand. No generic templates — every pixel is intentional.
Every store we build is optimised for Core Web Vitals from day one. Fast loading means better conversions and stronger Google rankings.
Over 70% of eCommerce traffic is mobile. We design and test for mobile first, then scale up to desktop.
Full product data migration, collection structure, variant setup, and smart filtering — so your catalogue is shoppable from day one.
Strategic placement of trust signals, reviews, upsells, and CTAs — built on eCommerce best practice and our client data.
Structured data, meta tags, canonical URLs, XML sitemap, and image optimisation — so your store is ready to rank on day one.
Reviews (Okendo, Judge.me), email (Klaviyo), loyalty, subscriptions, and any other apps — installed, configured, and styled to match.
Shopify Payments configured for NZ/AU, with BNPL options (Afterpay, Laybuy), express checkout, and multi-currency where required.
Full video walkthrough of your store so your team can manage products, orders, and content independently from day one.
We work across the full Shopify stack — from simple stores to complex Shopify Plus implementations.
High-volume stores needing advanced checkout customisation, B2B pricing, multi-store, and automated workflows via Shopify Flow.
Moving from WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce or custom platforms — we migrate products, customers, orders, and SEO value intact.
Existing Shopify store running slow? We audit and fix LCP, CLS, and FID issues — often achieving 40–60 point PageSpeed score improvements.
Monthly retainer for Shopify stores needing regular development, CRO testing, new features, and ongoing performance monitoring.

A Starter Store typically takes 4–6 weeks from kickoff to launch. A Growth Store takes 8–12 weeks. Shopify Plus projects are scoped individually but typically run 12–16 weeks. Timeline depends on how quickly you can provide content, images, and feedback.
Not at all. Most businesses start on the standard Shopify plan ($50–$130/month NZD) and upgrade to Plus when revenue warrants it — typically around $1–2M/year. We build for both and can advise which tier fits your current stage.
Yes — we migrate from WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce, and custom platforms. This includes products, customer records, order history, and importantly, your SEO value via proper redirects so you don’t lose Google rankings.
