eCommerce development on Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento or headless, whichever fits your business: speed a buyer can feel, search that finds the product, a checkout that doesn't leak orders. First working deliverable within 14 days of the NDA.
First deliverable in 14 days · You own the code
PixelCrayons builds and migrates online stores on Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento and headless stacks: engineering, QA and growth under one roof. A senior commerce pod ships your first working deliverable within 14 days of NDA. It also migrates existing stores with zero data loss and can run SEO and conversion work on the same roadmap afterwards. 2,500+ projects delivered since 2004, and you own every line of code. Direct for brands, white-label for agencies.
It depends on your catalogue, team and margins, not on which platform we'd rather sell. Here's the split, platform by platform.
The default pick for most D2C brands that want speed to market and a managed platform.
Fits teams already invested in WordPress who want full control of the stack.
Earns its complexity only at serious catalogue and B2B scale.
A custom front end on a commerce engine. Makes sense when the storefront experience is genuinely a competitive weapon and you have the team to sustain it.
Outcomes tied to real engagements, not averages.
Buyers abandon slow stores, so performance is a build requirement here, not a retrofit. Templates are built lean, images and scripts are budgeted per page, and Core Web Vitals are measured on every release. A store that loads quickly converts browsing into orders, and our Performance service exists for stores that already can't.
Category structure designed around how people actually shop your range. On-site search that forgives typos and understands synonyms. Merchandising controls your team can use without a developer. The catalogue structure is planned with search demand in mind, so the store and its SEO aren't fighting each other later.
The checkout is where stores quietly lose money, so it gets engineering attention first. Minimal steps, address autocomplete, the payment methods your market expects, and every failure state handled gracefully. Tax, shipping rules and fraud settings are configured and tested before launch, not discovered by your first customer.
Replatforming is where catalogues, order histories and rankings go missing, unless the move is mapped first. We inventory products, customers, orders and every URL that ever earned a ranking before anything switches. Nothing is turned off until its destination is verified. It's the discipline behind our Migrations service, applied to commerce.
Payment gateways, ERP and inventory systems, shipping and fulfilment providers, email and analytics: connected so stock levels, orders and customer records agree everywhere. When the integrations are right, your team stops re-keying data and your reports stop arguing with each other.
We sign your NDA (or ours) and walk the store together: platform, catalogue size, integrations, what's leaking orders today. No discovery fee, no workshop theatre.
A written scope listing exactly what ships (storefront, checkout, integrations, migration plan) in what order and for how much. Compare deliverables, not day rates.
Commerce engineers matched to your platform, environments stood up, the repository created in your accounts. Any migration is mapped before a single record moves.
Working software on staging, demoed on a call: a storefront section, a checkout flow, a verified migration dry run. From here the build runs to launch in fixed blocks of work, each ending in a demo.
Your build runs in a Prism workspace you log into: requests, approvals, the task list and the weekly review, beside the repository your team already owns.
One queue, beside the repository your team owns.
Every task has one owner and a date.
Each decision recorded, with the expectation attached.
A Gulf D2C fragrance retailer had outgrown its storefront: merchandising was slow and replatforming talk always stalled on the fear of losing data. We migrated the full catalogue, order history and customer records with zero data loss, and mapped every URL that had ever ranked. Then we ran eCommerce SEO and paid on one roadmap. Revenue grew 340% in seven months.
An Australian bean bags, pet beds and modular furniture retailer needed to survive its own promotional traffic spikes. We rebuilt the platform on cloud auto-scaling, microservices and OAuth2.
Partnering with ValueCoders [our sibling company] transformed our digital presence. Their expertise in scalable solutions and user-centric design significantly boosted our performance and customer satisfaction.
Every part of our ecommerce web development is also available as a narrower engagement: pick the platform or the problem, and the same senior pod shows up.
A fast store nobody finds is still a quiet store. The team that builds your storefront can run eCommerce SEO and conversion optimisation on the same roadmap: one plan, one set of priorities, no hand-off tax.
It depends on your catalogue, team and margins, which is why we're platform-agnostic. Shopify suits most D2C brands that want speed to market and a managed platform. WooCommerce fits teams already invested in WordPress who want full control. Magento (Adobe Commerce) earns its complexity only at serious catalogue and B2B scale. Headless makes sense when the front-end experience is genuinely a competitive weapon and you have the team to sustain it. We'll recommend the platform that fits, including telling you when the cheaper option is the right one.
Yes, and the method matters more than the promise. Before anything moves, we inventory products, customers, order history and every URL that has ever earned a ranking, then map each one to its destination. Nothing is switched off until the migration is verified against that map. Redirects ship with the launch, not after it. We ran exactly this playbook for a Gulf D2C retailer whose replatforming fear was data loss: full catalogue and order history moved, zero records lost, search equity intact. The case study is on this page.
It depends on catalogue size, integrations and how much custom checkout logic you need, so we scope timelines per project rather than quoting a universal number. What is fixed is the start: an itemised proposal within 48 hours and a first working deliverable on staging within 14 days of the NDA. A straightforward storefront on an established platform lands in weeks. A multi-store migration with ERP integration takes months. If a date is at risk, you hear it from us early, with options.
You do, from day one. The platform accounts, the repository, the theme and any custom code all live in your name. IP assignment is written into the contract. Documentation and credentials are handed over as we go, rather than ransomed at the end. If we part ways, you keep everything and any competent team can pick up where we left off. No proprietary frameworks, no licence-back clauses.
Commerce QA is unforgiving: a checkout bug is lost revenue by the hour. So every release ships through a QA gate: automated checks in CI plus manual passes across browsers and devices. The checkout, payment methods, tax and shipping rules are tested against real-world scenarios before you ever see the build. Defects are logged, fixed and retested before the demo. If you only need testing, our QA & Testing service runs the same process on stores built by anyone.
Yes, a large share of our ecommerce website development services ship under partner agencies' brands, including the published commerce case on this page. Your project tools, your client calls, our engineers behind the scenes. It's NDA-backed, with a clause signed at the start that we never approach your clients, during the engagement or after it. The relationship you built stays yours.
Tell us what you sell and where it's stuck. You'll have an itemised proposal in 48 hours and a first working deliverable within 14 days of the NDA. The estimate is yours to keep either way.
