Shopify Plus Agency
Shopify Plus is a different platform than standard Shopify. Same Liquid templating underneath. Different capabilities, different limits, different commercial terms. Most agencies that say they work on Plus actually build standard Shopify stores for Plus merchants. There is a real difference.
We’re a Shopify-focused agency that builds on the Plus tier when the tier is right. With 14+ years on Shopify and ex-Shopify engineers on the team, we know which Plus features earn their keep, which ones are oversold, and how to architect a Plus store that scales without becoming brittle.
When Plus Is the Right Call
We tell merchants Plus is the right move when at least one of these applies:
- Checkout customization is a real requirement. Compliance reasons, custom payment logic, or B2B flows that standard checkout can’t support.
- You need multiple storefronts. Wholesale alongside DTC. International markets with separate catalogs, currencies, or languages.
- B2B is core. Native company accounts, customer-specific pricing, net payment terms.
- Annual revenue is comfortably in the low millions. The math on Plus stops feeling expensive when it’s a small percentage of what’s flowing through.
If none of those are true, you’re probably on the right tier already, and a strong standard Shopify build will serve you better than upgrading prematurely.
What We Build on Plus
Checkout extensibility. Custom payment logic, pre-purchase and post-purchase pages, embedded checkout apps. We’ve shipped checkout extensions that passed App Store review.
Shopify Functions. Custom discount, shipping, and payment logic written in code rather than fighting with third-party app limitations.
Multi-store architecture. Expansion stores for B2B alongside DTC, or for separate international markets. Catalog sync, customer routing, design system continuity.
Native B2B. Company accounts, customer-specific catalogs, draft order workflows, quote management.
Performance at scale. Theme decisions, image strategy, and Liquid patterns that hold up under high traffic plus large SKU counts.
Enterprise Migrations
Migrating to Plus from Magento, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, or BigCommerce Enterprise has its own playbook. We’ve seen the patterns that catch teams out: customer password rehashing rules, metafield strategy for legacy product data, redirect maps that preserve organic traffic, plus the careful order-of-operations during cutover weekend.
We plan migrations in detail before any code is written. Discovery typically runs 2 to 4 weeks. Build runs 8 to 16 weeks depending on complexity. Cutover is its own dedicated phase with rollback plans.

FAQs
Do I actually need Shopify Plus?
Most stores under low-millions revenue don't. Plus pays for itself when you need checkout customization, multi-store, native B2B, or Shopify Functions. We'll tell you honestly during discovery whether the upgrade fits your scope.
Can you migrate us from Magento or Salesforce Commerce Cloud to Plus?
Yes. Enterprise migrations involve data, redirect mapping, customer rehashing, theme rebuild, and SEO continuity. We've shipped a few and we plan them in detail before any code is written.
Do you build checkout UI extensions?
Yes. We build checkout extensions on Plus that pass review and deploy cleanly. We also know when to use Functions instead of an extension, which saves merchants money over time.
Who handles Shopify Plus support during launch?
Your assigned Shopify Launch Engineer plus our team work together. We coordinate cutover, monitor closely for the first 30 days, and escalate to Plus support directly when needed.
