Service questions
Questions about this service.
Can you customise an existing Shopify theme?+
Yes, after reviewing whether extending the current theme is safer and more efficient than replacing it.
Do you build Shopify Plus stores?+
The required Shopify plan should be chosen from real feature and operational needs. Enterprise features are not recommended only for status.
Can you reduce the number of apps?+
Yes. We can review overlapping functionality, theme code and integration needs, then remove apps only with regression and data checks.
Who manages the store after launch?+
The merchant team retains the store account. Handover covers the sections, products and workflows included in scope.
