Shopify development by the team that keeps it running.
Themes, custom apps and integrations, built by engineers, tested before they go live and handed over so the store is yours. Then we can look after it.
Anyone can build a Shopify change. What matters is who owns it, who tested it and who fixes it next month.
A change that works on launch day and breaks in a quarter is the usual way store owners get hurt. So we build in a copy of your theme, test the whole path to a paid order before anything goes live, hand over the code and access, and stay available afterwards. The Store Care plans are how that last part works in practice.
The changes Shopify stores most often need
If yours is not on the list, describe it in the audit and we will tell you if we can do it.
Themes and storefront changes
Product page layouts, bundles, size charts and landing pages, built so you can keep editing them in the theme editor rather than calling us for every change.
Custom apps and Shopify Functions
Logic that the app store does not cover: discount, shipping and payment rules written for how you actually sell.
Integrations
Your inventory system, shipping, accounting or CRM connected to the store, built to retry when something fails and to tell someone when it still does, so orders do not silently go missing.
Cart and checkout changes
Customization within what Shopify allows on your plan, and a straight answer when what you want is not allowed.
Speed
Theme and script weight that slows pages on a phone, fixed in the code rather than papered over with another app.
Catalog structure and imports
Products, variants and metafields organized so the catalog can grow without becoming unmanageable, and bulk imports that do not corrupt what is there.
Questions to ask any Shopify developer, including us
Scope, build in a copy, test, launch
Free audit and scope
We look at the store and write down what we would build, what it costs and how long it takes.
Build in a copy
Work happens in a copy of your theme, so the live store keeps selling while we work.
Test
We run the whole path to a paid order on a phone and a desktop, and send you the copy to try before it goes live.
Launch and hand over
We publish it, hand over the code and access, and, if you want, keep looking after it.
If search is the problem rather than the build, see Shopify SEO. Choosing between platforms? Shopify vs WooCommerce compares them.
Shopify development questions
Do we own the code?
Yes. The theme, the custom code and every account stay yours, and if you leave we hand over what we built.
Do you use apps or custom code?
Apps first, when one does the job, because custom code is more to maintain. Custom code when an app does not fit, or when several apps together would cost more in weight and monthly fees than the code would.
What does it cost?
We scope it after the free audit and give you a written quote before any work begins, so you know the number before you commit.
Can you work on a store you did not build?
Yes. We start with an audit so we know the store before we touch it, and we work through your Shopify staff access, never your password.
What happens after launch?
You can take the code and run it yourself, or keep us. Store Care covers monitoring, updates and a block of change hours each month, and it is run by GigaCommerce, Gigaverse's commerce team.
Do you only build on Shopify?
No. Our engineers also work on WooCommerce, BigCommerce and custom builds. Say what you use in the audit form and we will tell you if it fits.
Tell us what you want built
We look at your store, write down what we would build and what it costs, and email it to you. Free, nothing to sign.
