Shopify Development
Shopify development services from senior Shopify experts, for ecommerce businesses across Australia, the US, the UK, and beyond. Custom Shopify and Shopify Plus work: themes, custom apps, checkout extensions, headless builds and migrations, built to convert and built to scale.
The problem
Most ecommerce businesses start with an off-the-shelf Shopify theme and a handful of apps. It works — for a while. Then the store grows, the customisations stack up, the apps start conflicting, and the checkout experience breaks on mobile.
The real problem is rarely the platform. It is that Shopify development requires deep knowledge of Liquid, the Storefront API, checkout extensibility, and how your app stack interacts with the theme. Generic agencies and freelancers patch and workaround. The technical debt compounds.
We build clean, fast, maintainable Shopify stores — custom themes built from scratch or refined from existing ones, checkout extensions that actually work, integrations that do not break, and a migration path that does not lose your data.
What this includes
Shopify theme development
Custom themes built from scratch or refined from an existing one. Clean Liquid, Online Store 2.0 sections your team can edit, fast load times and conversion-focused layouts.
Shopify consulting and technical audits
A fixed-scope review of your theme, app stack, integrations and checkout by a senior Shopify consultant, with a prioritised list of what to fix, what to leave and what it will take. Useful before a rebuild, a replatform or a change of agency.
Checkout extensions
Custom Shopify checkout UI extensions, checkout rules, and payment customisations. Works with Shopify Plus.
App & API integrations
Connect your ERP, 3PL, CRM, loyalty programme, or custom backend. Built on the Storefront API or custom Shopify apps.
Custom Shopify app development
Custom apps for a single store and public App Store apps, built on Shopify's GraphQL Admin API, with embedded admin screens where your team needs them.
Headless Shopify with Hydrogen
Hydrogen and Storefront API builds for stores that have outgrown what a Liquid theme can do, and a straight answer if yours hasn't yet.

Company accounts, B2B catalogs, volume pricing, payment terms, quantity rules and quick order lists, using Shopify's native B2B features.
Shopify Plus migrations
Migrate from WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce, or another Shopify store. Products, orders, customers, and SEO redirects.
