Shopify Store Setup — Everything Needed to Start Selling
Shopify is a hosted platform, so set-up is mostly about getting the details right: design, products, payments, shipping and tracking.
Theme & Branding
A premium theme configured with your logo, colours and fonts, plus the key pages.
Products & Collections
Product import, collections and filters so customers can find things quickly.
Payments
Shopify Payments is not available in Pakistan or the UAE, so there we connect a third-party gateway (for example PayFast, Telr or PayTabs, or cash on delivery).
Shipping & Couriers
Shipping zones and rates; on higher plans, courier integration such as TCS / Leopards in Pakistan or Aramex / iMile in the Gulf.
Tracking & Apps
GA4 plus Meta, TikTok and Snap pixels; reviews, upsell and email apps on Professional.
Training & Handover
A walkthrough so your team can add products, manage orders and run discounts.
From Brief to Launch
Typical timings; larger catalogues and custom work take longer.
Brief and scope
We agree pages, products, gateway, shipping and apps, then confirm the fixed price.
Design and set-up
Theme set-up and branding, then your approval of the design.
Products, payments, shipping
Products imported, gateway and shipping configured, apps and pixels installed, test orders placed.
Go live and training
We launch, train your team and support you for the agreed period.
