What will it cost, how long will it take, and do you even need Plus?

Build pricing is ours. Platform pricing is Shopify’s published pricing. The verdict is honest either way, including when the answer is “stay on Advanced”.

Plus charges 0.18% on B2B revenue against 0.35% on D2C, so a wholesale mix lowers the platform fee at scale.

How this is calculated

Build bands are our published starting points: focused work from $2,500, theme builds from $12K, Plus builds and migrations $25K to $150K+, headless from $15K, and they scale with revenue, catalogue and integration count. Platform figures use Shopify's published US pricing: Plus floor $2,300/mo (3-year) or $2,500/mo (1-year), variable platform fee 0.35% of D2C sales (0.40% on 1-year) and 0.18% of B2B sales, capped at $40,000/mo, whichever of floor or fee is higher. Shopify Payments 2.15% + 30c on Plus against 2.50% + 30c on Advanced ($399/mo). Everything here is an estimate; the number in writing after the call is fixed.

Get a close range for your store

The band above is built from typical projects. Give us your store and two numbers and we price the move for your store specifically: we scan it, cost all seven migration phases, and email you the estimate as a PDF.

  1. Revenue sets the size of the team the build needs.
  2. Average order value tells us your order volume, which drives data migration, QA and cutover.
  3. After a short call to confirm scope, we send the final invoice.

Why brands hire us

Three things you will not get from a typical Shopify agency.

The person who scopes the store is the person who builds it, and the number is written down before anything starts.

  1. A fixed number before anything starts

    Scope and price are written down after the call and they do not move. No hourly meters, no change-order culture, no surprises in week six.

  2. The engineer on the call builds the store

    No account manager, no junior handoff. The person who scopes your project writes the code, runs the weekly demo and answers within 12 hours.

  3. Built for what Plus is actually for

    Checkout extensions, Functions, Flow, B2B company accounts, Markets. Most brands upgrade to Plus and never use them. We build around them.

What we build

Shopify Plus setup and the custom solutions around it.

Every one of them is Shopify or Shopify Plus. If your project is not on this list, we will tell you on the first call.

  1. Shopify Plus builds & migrations

    Custom storefronts from scratch, or a zero-loss move from Magento, WooCommerce, BigCommerce or Salesforce.

    See the service page
  2. Checkout extensibility

    Checkout UI extensions, Functions and validation rules that replace legacy checkout.liquid properly.

  3. B2B & wholesale

    Company accounts, customer-specific pricing, net terms and a real portal instead of orders by email.

    See the service page
  4. Headless storefronts

    Hydrogen or Next.js on the Storefront API, when the traffic and the design brief justify it.

    See the service page
  5. Retail: POS sync, MAP pricing, financing

    Catalog from your POS, delivery and installation by ZIP code, financing at checkout, protection plans — built into the theme, not bolted on.

    See the service page
  6. Apps, integrations, CRO & retention

    Private apps, ERP, 3PL, CRM and booking integrations through native APIs and Flow — and the monthly work that keeps the store growing after launch, with the same engineers.

The five questions everyone asks first.

What does a Shopify Plus build cost?

Full Shopify Plus builds and migrations run from $25,000 to $150,000+, and most land around $40,000. Focused engagements start at $2,500. You get the exact number in writing within 12 hours of the call, and it does not move.

How long does it take?

Eight weeks is our average from kickoff to launch on Plus. Headless builds take 8 to 14 weeks and speed work 3 to 5. We tell you which category you are in on the call, not after you sign.

Who is actually on the call, and who does the work?

The same person. A senior Shopify engineer scopes your project on the call and builds it afterwards. There is no account-manager layer and no handoff to juniors, and replies come from an engineer within 12 hours.

Do I need Shopify Plus, or will standard Shopify do?

Not always, and we will say so. Plus earns its cost once you need checkout customisation, B2B company accounts, Flow automation or higher API limits. If you are not there yet we scope for standard Shopify and tell you what would trigger the upgrade.

What if we are not a fit?

You still leave with the written plan. We turn down work that is not worth doing and say so plainly on the call. There is no obligation and nothing to cancel.
