What is
Shopify
?
Shopify is an eCommerce platform that allows businesses to sell physical or digital products online. While there are many platforms available for building an online store, Shopify stands out as the most popular choice due to its user-friendly functionality, seamless payment integrations, and compatibility with third-party services like DHL, Klarna, TikTok & Amazon. Shopify works by enabling designers and developers to create a custom online store tailored to your business. Once the store is live, you can independently manage it adding, removing, and updating products, fulfilling orders, and handling other eCommerce operations through Shopify’s intuitive user-friendly system.

FAQs

Can I customise the look of my Shopify store?
Absolutely! We tailor the design of your Shopify store to align with your branding, your industry, and the vision we collaboratively develop during the initial project phase. To kick-off, we provide three unique homepage design concepts filled with placeholder content to give you an idea of the potential look and feel of your site. Once you select your preferred design, we proceed with building the full Shopify store. After launch, any further customisation to the design would require additional development time, as the design cascades across the entire site during the main build. This approach ensures your store is fully aligned with your brand and is as visually engaging as possible for your customers.
How do I handle payments on Shopify?
Shopify integrates seamlessly with a wide range of payment providers, making it the most versatile eCommerce platform on the market. It supports all major credit and debit cards, including American Express and Mastercard, as well as popular payment gateways like PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Klarna, Clearpay, and Square. Store owners can link their business bank accounts to their Shopify store, allowing revenue to be automatically transferred. Shopify also simplifies tax and VAT calculations, taking the guesswork out of compliance and making it easier to manage your finances and income streams.
Can Shopify integrate with my existing systems?
Yes! Shopify offers robust integration capabilities through its developer tools and APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). This allows it to connect with most third-party systems you may already use, such as ERPs (Enterprise Resource Planning), CRMs (Customer Relationship Management), POS systems (Point of Sale), analytical dashboards, online marketplaces, blockchains, and third-party shipping or fulfilment platforms. For further details on Shopify’s integration capabilities, visit their developer documentation.
How much does building a Shopify site cost?
Most of our Shopify projects range from roughly £15k to £50k, with final costs shaped by the individual scope and complexity of the work. Our minimum starting point is typically £10k, however, this amount can vary depending on the brief and will be properly scoped out after our initial discovery call. Once we have received the brief and agreed upon the final amount, an initial 50% down payment will be made when the project begins with the final outstanding 50% to be paid on the go-live day.
Is Shopify safe for my customers to use?
Yes! Shopify is a safe platform for customers you use. As long as the hosting of your site has a secure SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) padlock then everything else within the Shopify ecosystem, including all of the payment methods are 100% secure. Shopify is trusted by both national and international brands across the world such as Huel, Represent, Dermatlogica, GymShark Tesla, Heinz & FitBit, just to name a few. It is considered the most popular and therefore safest option for your customers to feel confident to use, upload their personal details to and make payments through.
Why should I use Shopify over other eCommerce platforms?
As a full Ecommerce platform solution Shopify has it all! It has industry leading payment methods, the highest converting checkout of any Ecommerce platform to date (Jan 2025), a vast amount of integrated apps, order notifications confirmations, in person point of sale platforms and the fastest most secure back-end of any other Ecommerce platform. As an all-in-one purpose-built Ecommerce platform, Shopify is industry leading with not many secondary platforms coming anywhere near its capabilities and conversion rates. For any business small or large if you sell either physical or digital products online the chances are that Shopify will be your best option in order to have the highest chance at success.
Can I manage my Shopify store myself after it’s built?
Yes, absolutely! Shopify is designed to be intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy for you to take full control of your store once it’s live. After launch, we’ll walk you through a detailed onboarding session, showing you how to update products, manage inventory, process orders, and make basic content changes. The platform’s straightforward dashboard means you don’t need technical expertise to handle day-to-day operations. That said, if you ever need help with advanced customisations or additional support, our team is here to assist.

I brought Modal on board to support with our business venture. The way they were able to visually bring to life our concept was exceptional. As the business continues to grow we will have no hesitation in utilising their services again.
