Ecommerce Development — NZ Wide

Ecommerce Website Development Services That Turn Browsers Into Buyers

Devify builds and upgrades online stores for retailers across New Zealand — Shopify, WooCommerce and fully custom ecommerce platforms, with payment gateways and inventory systems integrated from day one.

Shopify vs Custom Ecommerce

Which Platform Is Right for Your Store?

Shopify and WooCommerce are the right fit for most retailers — fast to launch, easy to manage day-to-day, and backed by a huge ecosystem of apps and payment integrations. A custom ecommerce build makes sense once you have complex product configurations, a unique checkout flow, or need deep integration with inventory, ERP or logistics systems that off-the-shelf platforms can't handle.

  • Shopify / WooCommerce — fast launch, low maintenance, huge app ecosystem
  • Custom ecommerce — full control for complex catalogues and integrations
  • Our approach — an honest recommendation, not a one-size-fits-all pitch

Ecommerce Development Questions, Answered

Shopify (or WooCommerce) is the right fit for most retailers — it's fast to launch, easy to manage, and has a huge ecosystem of apps and payment integrations. Custom ecommerce development makes sense once you have complex product configurations, unique checkout flows, or need to integrate deeply with existing inventory, ERP or logistics systems that off-the-shelf platforms can't handle.

A Shopify or WooCommerce store typically costs between NZ$5,000 and NZ$18,000 depending on design complexity, number of products and integrations required. Custom ecommerce platforms cost more, usually starting from NZ$25,000. Devify provides a fixed-price quote after a free consultation.
