Your store. Your accounts.

  • Your store account and domain stay in your name. I set up the store through the access you grant and hand over the settings you need.
  • The platform belongs to Shopify. A purchased theme is licensed for one store; paid apps have their own terms.
  • You pay Shopify directly for the plan, theme and apps. Copywriting, integrations, custom apps and structural theme changes are outside the setup price.

From your catalog to a working store.

I handle the setup and review the store with you at each step.

  3. 03

    I connect payments, shipping and your domain. You review the store through two rounds of changes within the agreed scope.

Questions about Shopify development in NYC

How much does a Shopify store setup cost in NYC?

Shopify setup starts from $1,000. It includes theme styling, up to 25 products from your content, payments, shipping and domain connection, one language, one market and two rounds of changes. I confirm the scope in writing before starting.

What is not included in the setup price?

Copywriting, integrations, custom apps and structural theme changes are outside the setup. You provide product content and brand assets. Shopify's plan, a purchased theme and paid apps are paid by you directly to Shopify, separately from my setup fee.

Should I choose Shopify or a custom store?

Shopify setup from $1,000 fits a straightforward catalog and checkout. A custom store is $5,000 fixed with features agreed in writing. ERP connections, complex business rules and portals are quoted as a web app from $12,000.

Do you work with shops in Brooklyn and Queens?

Yes. I work remotely with shops in Brooklyn, Queens and all five New York City boroughs. I am based in the Bronx, and you work directly with me through the setup and handoff.

Who owns the store account, domain and theme?

Your store account and domain stay in your name. The platform belongs to Shopify. A purchased theme is licensed for one store, and paid apps have their own licenses and subscriptions. I explain the required accounts and costs before setup.

Can you help with a small Shopify fix?

Yes. A website fix starts from $99 for a simple, identifiable task such as a broken form, a layout adjustment or a slow page with a clear cause. I review the issue and agree on the fix before starting. A new app or structural theme rebuild needs its own scope.
