Our Shopify retainer plans are designed to keep your store secure, high-performing, and primed for growth - with proactive support that’s always there when it matters most.
Book a free callSupport is worth paying for when the cost of your store being broken is higher than the cost of cover. Here is who that applies to, what the plans include and how to judge which level you need.
| Aspect | Monthly retainer | Block of hours |
|---|---|---|
| How it works | A set amount of senior time each month, with priority response | A pot of hours you draw down as you need them |
| Best when | There is always something to do and you need fast response when something breaks | Work arrives occasionally and is not urgent |
| Published price | From CAD 1,600 per month | CAD 2,250 or CAD 4,200 per block |
If you are unsure, a block of hours is the lower-commitment way to start.
Published prices are starting points; your price is set once the scope is agreed. See Shopify design and build pricing.
Response times are agreed as part of the plan rather than left vague, and priority support is what separates the retainer levels. The specific commitment is set out before you sign.
That is worth discussing before you choose a level. If your month-to-month need is uneven, a block of hours you draw down is usually better value than a retainer you underuse.
Yes. We start with onboarding: reviewing the theme, apps and integrations so we know what we are maintaining before we touch it.
Yes. Security, monitoring and platform updates are part of the plans, along with keeping apps current as Shopify changes.
Ongoing support starts at CAD 1,600 per month (Starter), CAD 2,600 (Pro) and CAD 4,000 (Premium). Blocks of hours are CAD 2,250 and CAD 4,200. Final pricing depends on the cover you need.

Our Shopify experts offer complete technical support through flexible retainers. We handle bug fixes, third-party app integrations, theme maintenance, and emergency support with speed and precision. Whether you need to resolve urgent issues, integrate tools like subscription apps or loyalty programs, or migrate to Shopify 2.0—we ensure everything runs smoothly without disruptions.
From rolling out new homepage layouts to refining product filters and cart flows, we help you evolve your Shopify theme with clean, conversion-driven code. Our development team integrates new features, improves usability, and aligns every update with your store’s growth goals—while preserving performance and SEO integrity.
We keep your store secure and aligned with Shopify’s latest platform changes. From staying ahead of Shopify API updates to implementing SSL, patching vulnerabilities, and safeguarding customer data—we ensure your store stays modern, safe, and fully functional 24/7.
Already have custom apps powering your store? We maintain, enhance, and scale both private and public Shopify apps. Whether it’s fixing bugs, optimizing performance, or upgrading features—we make sure your app ecosystem evolves with your business.
Great design doesn’t stop after launch. With our design retainers, you get ongoing creative support—from UX audits and CRO-focused UI improvements to new landing pages, banners, icons, and visual storytelling assets. We keep your store fresh, engaging, and on-brand.
We help you fine-tune performance with data-driven optimization retainers. Our team improves speed scores, reduces load times, and increases conversions through A/B testing, UX enhancements, and strategic adjustments. Better speed, better SEO, better sales.
We begin by assigning you a dedicated Success Manager and reviewing your existing setup, recurring issues, and goals.
Together, we define what types of tasks, improvements, or emergencies our support should prioritize — from design tweaks to app fixes.
Every month, we align on how your hours should be used — whether it's performance improvements, conversion boosts, or launching new features.
You can roll over unused hours, add extra ones when needed, or scale your plan up or down based on your current roadmap.
Our team works proactively to resolve issues, implement improvements, and ensure your store is always running smoothly.
We also monitor performance, bugs, and third-party app updates — addressing potential issues before they become a problem.
Each month, your Success Manager provides a clear summary of completed work, results, and recommendations for the next cycle.
You’ll always know how your hours are being spent and where we can make the most impact moving forward.
