Monthly support and retainers

Launch is the start, not the finish. We retain a roster of clients on monthly support agreements, giving them a senior team for ongoing development, fixes, and new features without the cost and lead time of hiring in-house. You get a predictable partner who already knows your codebase.

Maintenance, monitoring, and enhancement

Theme and app updates, performance and Core Web Vitals, accessibility, bug fixes, and a steady backlog of improvements: we treat your store as a product that should get better every month, not a project that ends at handoff.

Inherited a store that needs help?

We regularly take over Shopify stores built by other agencies or developers, stabilize them, and bring them up to standard. Tell us what hurts and we’ll triage it. Explore our case studies or our Shopify Plus practice.

Frequently asked questions

Do you offer monthly Shopify support retainers?

Yes. Most support clients work with us on a monthly retainer that covers development, maintenance, and enhancement. We scope the hours to your needs.

What does Shopify support include?

Theme and app updates, bug fixes, new features and development, performance and accessibility work, integrations, and proactive monitoring and recommendations.

Will you support a store you didn’t build?

Yes. We regularly take over and stabilize Shopify stores built by other teams, audit the codebase, and bring it up to standard before improving it.

Do you support small stores as well as enterprise?

Yes. We are full-service and work with brands large and small. Support engagements are sized to the store and the work.

How fast do you respond?

Response times are set in your support agreement, with priority handling for anything affecting revenue or availability.

Can support lead into larger projects?

Often. Many clients start with support and grow into replatforms, headless builds, or redesigns as their needs scale.
