Shopify integration
Shopify integration, built properly
We connect Shopify to an ERP or stock system, accounting, a CRM and fulfilment, so keeping stock, orders and customers in step between the store and the systems behind it stops being somebody's weekly job.
What we connect it to
Shopify rarely needs to stand alone
The honest part
What usually goes wrong
Shopify webhooks can fire more than once for the same event, so anything that creates a record has to be written to be safely repeatable.
We find this in the first few days rather than in month two, which is the whole point of scoping before quoting. Shopify exposes Admin GraphQL and REST, with webhooks, and that decides most of the design.
What you get
Every integration we ship includes
- A staging environment you test against before production data moves.
- Retries and a dead letter queue, so a failed sync is visible instead of silent.
- A log of every record written, so you can answer "why did this change".
- Alerts when the other side changes its API or a token expires.
- Documentation and the repository, handed to you at the end.
FAQ
Common questions
Can you connect Shopify to a system with no public API?
Often yes. Where there is no API we use a read-only database connection, a scheduled export, or a file drop the other system already produces. It is less elegant and it works. We tell you which approach applies after looking at your setup.
How long does a Shopify integration take?
A one-way sync with clean data on both sides is usually two to four weeks including testing. Two-way sync, or messy historical data that needs cleaning first, runs four to eight weeks. You get a fixed scope and a date before we start.
What does a Shopify integration cost to build and to run?
Build cost depends on how many objects you sync and whether it runs both ways, and we quote it line by line after a technical call. Running cost is usually a few dollars a month of serverless hosting, plus occasional maintenance when Shopify or the other vendor changes their API.
Do we own the integration?
Yes. The code lives in your repository, runs on your infrastructure, and there is no per-record or per-seat fee. If you stop working with us it keeps running.
