Your journey

From first doubt to a system that runs itself.

Most Shopify store owners find us the same way. Doing order and inventory tasks by hand that should be automatic. Here's the map: what you do, where it happens, what you're likely thinking, and how we respond.

Awareness

You're doing Shopify tasks by hand

Order tagging, inventory updates, customer emails, all done manually because the right app or automation isn't set up.

WhereGoogle search, Shopify app store, ecommerce automation communities
"I'm updating inventory and tagging orders by hand every day."
We show you exactly what can be automated in your current setup.
Consideration

You compare automation options

Off-the-shelf apps, custom Shopify apps, no-code tools. You're checking what actually fits your store's workflow.

WhereApp store reviews, case studies, integration lists
"Will this actually work with the apps I already have installed?"

Growth

Your store runs more on its own

As your catalog and order volume grow, the automations scale with it instead of needing more manual work.

01. Custom apps

Bespoke apps for the workflows off-the-shelf can't touch.

When the App Store doesn't have it, we build it. Private and public Shopify apps engineered around your exact merchandising, pricing, or operational logic. Owned by you, documented, and built to survive platform updates.

  • Private & embedded Shopify app development
  • Admin API, Storefront API & Functions builds
  • Custom pricing, bundling & checkout logic
  • Clean handoff. Source, docs, and ownership are yours

02. Order & fulfillment

Orders that route, pack, and ship themselves.

From order-in to tracking-out, we automate the middle. Routing rules, split shipments, carrier selection, and status sync. So fulfillment scales past the point a human can babysit it.

  • Order routing, splitting & multi-warehouse logic
  • 3PL, carrier & tracking automation
  • Exception handling for holds, refunds & edits
  • Real-time status sync to customer & ops teams

03. Inventory sync

One source of truth, everywhere you sell.

Multi-location, multi-channel, multi-supplier. Inventory drifts fast without discipline. We build sync workflows that keep every channel honest in real time, so you never oversell a bestseller again.

  • Real-time multi-location & multi-channel sync
  • Supplier & PO-driven stock automation
  • Low-stock alerts & auto-reorder triggers
  • Bundle & kit inventory logic that actually holds

04. Integrations

ERP, email, and loyalty. Talking in one language.

Your stack shouldn't require three tabs and a prayer. We wire Shopify into ERP, finance, email/SMS, and loyalty platforms so data moves once, correctly, and every system reflects the same customer reality.

  • ERP & accounting sync (NetSuite, SAP, QuickBooks & more)
  • Klaviyo / Attentive / custom ESP data pipelines
  • Loyalty, rewards & subscription platform bridges
  • Webhook & middleware architecture built to last

05. Workflow builder

Flow, webhooks, and rules that run while you sleep.

Most operational drag is just unbuilt logic. We design Shopify Flow sequences, webhook chains, and scheduled jobs that quietly handle tagging, flags, approvals, and edge cases across your entire back office.

  • Shopify Flow & automation rule architecture
  • Webhook chains & event-driven triggers
  • Fraud, risk & approval automation
  • Custom scripts for the rules Flow can't reach

06. Ongoing support

Automation that gets maintained, not abandoned.

Apps break when Shopify updates, APIs deprecate, and volume spikes. We stay on retainer. Monitoring, patching, and extending your automation stack as the business (and the platform) keeps moving.

  • Uptime monitoring & proactive error alerts
  • API version & deprecation management
  • Scaling fixes ahead of peak-season volume
  • Monthly roadmap for new automation opportunities

Proof

How we prove it.

FAQ

Straight answers for operators.

Do we need a custom app, or can Flow handle this?

Often Flow and webhooks cover 80% of it. We build custom apps only when the logic genuinely exceeds what native tooling supports. The strategy call decides which path saves you the most money.

Which systems can you integrate with Shopify?

ERP and accounting platforms like NetSuite, SAP, and QuickBooks, ESPs like Klaviyo and Attentive, loyalty and subscription tools, 3PLs, and most systems with a documented API or webhook layer.

Who owns the code once it's built?

You do. Fully. Source code, documentation, and app ownership transfer to your business. We build assets, not lock-in.

What happens when Shopify pushes an API update?

Ongoing support clients get proactive monitoring and patching before deprecations break anything in production. No surprise outages during a launch or peak season.

Can this connect to DEVLIP's other Shopify services?

Yes. Design, maintenance, and automation share one operator. So your storefront, ops, and app layer stay coherent instead of fighting each other.

How fast can we start?

Most builds start within a week of the strategy call, once we've scoped the workflow and confirmed which app or automation configs are involved.

Do we own what you build?

Yes. Source code, app configs, and documentation transfer fully to your Shopify account. DEVLIP builds the automation, you keep the keys.

What are the contract terms?

Scope, build timeline, and terms for every app or automation get confirmed in writing before kickoff. No surprises, no fine print. Qualifying engagements carry a 90-day results guarantee.

What does this cost?

DEVLIP runs three tiers built for scope, not a fixed price sheet: Launch, Scale, and Portfolio, each custom-quoted to your scope. Custom app builds and multi-system automation projects typically land in the Scale to Portfolio range depending on integration count. See Pricing for the full breakdown, or book a free call for an exact number.

How do we pay you?

Bank transfer, wire, card through Stripe, or PayPal, billed against the agreed build or retainer scope. Whichever works best for you.
