Shopify Development for NZ Retailers. Stores Built to Sell and Ready to Rank.
Our Shopify developers build fast, high-converting stores for New Zealand retailers, with product loading, Google Shopping Ads setup and ecommerce SEO built in. From $250/mo with nothing upfront, or $2,500 once.
The platform your customers already trust.
Shopify powers millions of stores because it handles payments, shipping and inventory without breaking. We build on it because it lets us focus on what actually sells: fast pages, clean product architecture and Google Shopping visibility from day one.

Shopify store design that is selling from day one, not month three.
Full Shopify build
Custom theme, homepage, collections and product templates, designed for conversion, not just looks.
Free product loading
We load your products, variants, pricing and shipping rules. You check, we launch.
Google Shopping setup
Product feed, Merchant Centre and Shopping campaigns configured before launch.
SEO-ready architecture
Clean collection structure, metadata and schema so your products rank organically too.
Free photoshoot
Real photos of your products and your business. Never stock imagery.
Reporting dashboard
Sales, traffic, rankings and ad spend in one real-time view. Included with every package.
Your products in front of buyers, not browsers.
Every Shopify build includes Google Shopping Ads setup: product feed, merchant centre and AI-managed bidding. When someone searches for what you sell, your product photo and price are already there.
Ecommerce SEO is built into the store, not bolted on later.
Shopping ads put your products in front of buyers today. Organic search is what keeps them coming when the ad budget pauses, and most of it is decided by how the store is built.
As Shopify experts we set the structure up front, so collections, products and content all point Google at the pages you want to rank. That is the work behind the Possum Boutique case study, where organic traffic was up 300% six months after launch.
Collections that match searches
Collection pages named and written for the way people search ("merino jumpers", not "Winter Range 2"), each with its own title, description and intro copy.
Product pages that answer the questions
Unique descriptions, sizing and care details, product schema with price and availability, and image alt text, so products can show in organic and Shopping results.
Speed and clean migrations
A lean theme that loads fast on mobile, and 301 redirects from your old platform so existing rankings come with you.
Content and links after launch
Buying guides from our blogging service and authority from SEO and link building keep the store climbing once it is live.

With Media Giant, a Shopify store is $250 a month with nothing upfront, or $2,500 once and then $50 a month for hosting and support, all ex GST. That includes the store build, product loading, Google Shopping setup and reporting. Shopify's own subscription is billed separately by Shopify. Ongoing Google Ads management is $250 a month if you want us to run the Shopping campaigns. See every package on our pricing page.
Yes, free product loading is included. Send us your product list, photos and prices and we handle the rest, including collections, variants and shipping rules.
Yes. Product feed, Google Merchant Centre and campaign setup are part of every Shopify build. Ongoing AI-managed ad management is available at $250/mo.
Yes, from WooCommerce, Wix, Squarespace or an older Shopify theme. We keep your URLs and rankings with proper redirects.
Shopify's own platform fee (from about NZ$56/mo) is billed by Shopify directly. Our fee covers the build, product loading, support and reporting: $2,500 once and then $50/mo, or $250/mo with nothing upfront.
Yes. Rural delivery is a real cost, and a flat national rate posted from Wellington either loses money on the far end or loses the sale up front. We set rates by weight or by zone against what your courier actually charges, add a rural surcharge, and place a free shipping threshold that lifts your average order value instead of eating it.
No. We are Wellington based and we build for merchants right across New Zealand, from the Kāpiti Coast and the Wairarapa to Auckland and the South Island. Most of the work happens over video and a shared Shopify collaborator account. The only part that needs us in the room is the free photoshoot, which we arrange around you.
