Shopify store setup.

Shopify makes opening a store look easy, and it is, right up to the settings that decide whether you keep the margin on each order. We set up the whole store, from products and collections to payments, shipping, and taxes, ready to sell from day one.

The problem & the fix

Half-finished setups sell half as much.

The problem

Most self-built Shopify stores launch with default settings: shipping rates guessed, taxes ignored, a theme fresh out of the box, and checkout never tested with a real card. The store works, technically. It just leaks.

Our solution

We run the setup as a checklist built from stores that already sell: catalog structured, payments verified with live transactions, shipping priced to protect margin, and the theme adjusted so the store looks like a brand, not a template.

FAQ

Store setup questions, answered.

Everything between creating the account and taking real orders: store settings, taxes, product upload, collections, theme setup, payment gateways, shipping rates, branded notifications, and tested checkout on desktop and mobile.

A standard catalog usually goes live in one to three weeks. Large catalogs or heavy theme customization add time, and your quote includes the realistic date.

For most new stores, Basic is the right start; the higher plans earn their fee only at volume. We help you pick based on your expected orders and features, not on what pays the bigger commission.

Yes. Even without custom design work, a theme configured well, with your type, colors, and layout choices, stops looking like a template. Deeper customization is its own service if you want it.

Yes. Zones and rates get built around your actual couriers and box sizes, with free shipping thresholds placed where they help the average order rather than eat the margin.

Yes, that is one of the most common requests. We audit what exists, keep the good parts, and run the rest of the launch checklist.
