SHOPIFY EXPERT
ABU DHABI

Shopify offers built-in PCI compliance, automatic security updates, 99.98% uptime, and handles 10,000+ concurrent orders without server management. WooCommerce requires separate hosting, security plugins, and regular maintenance. For most UAE businesses, Shopify is faster to launch (4-6 weeks vs 12+ weeks) and more cost-effective long-term.

Yes. We integrate PayTabs, Telr, Checkout.com, Network International, and international gateways (Stripe, PayPal). We also set up Apple Pay and Google Pay for faster mobile checkout. All payment gateways are tested thoroughly before launch.

Absolutely. We build fully bilingual stores with Arabic RTL layouts and English LTR layouts. Content is translated in both languages, including checkout flow, product descriptions, navigation, and customer communications. We use Shopify's native multilingual features or apps like Langify/Weglot.

Standard migrations take 2-3 weeks. We use automated tools to migrate products, customers, orders, and content while preserving SEO rankings through 301 redirects. Complex migrations with custom fields or integrations may take 4-6 weeks. Zero downtime guaranteed during migration.

Shopify Plus is for high-volume stores (1,000+ orders/month or AED 500K+ annual revenue). Benefits include: custom checkout customization, dedicated account manager, API rate limits 10x higher, automation tools, B2B wholesale features, and lower transaction fees. Shopify Plus costs AED 7,300/month minimum.

Yes, but it requires Shopify Plus. We create separate wholesale portals with custom pricing, bulk order forms, and account-specific catalogs. B2C customers see retail prices while B2B customers see wholesale pricing after login. We've built 8+ B2B/B2C hybrid stores for UAE distributors.

Every project includes 60 days of free post-launch support. After that, we offer monthly retainer packages starting at AED 3,000/month covering: app updates, theme adjustments, product uploads, performance monitoring, security patches, and technical support with 24-hour response time.

Yes. We integrate Shopify with ERPs (Odoo, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics), accounting software (QuickBooks, Xero, Zoho Books), shipping providers (Aramex, Smsa Express), and inventory management systems. Integration complexity determines timeline (1-4 weeks) and cost (AED 8,000-25,000).

Shopify handles 99.98% of security threats automatically with PCI DSS Level 1 compliance, SSL certificates, and DDoS protection. If your store goes down (extremely rare), Shopify's team resolves it within minutes. Your data is backed up daily. We provide 24/7 emergency support for critical issues.

Absolutely. You own 100% of your Shopify store, theme code, and data. We provide full documentation, video tutorials, and source code access. Any Shopify developer can take over maintenance. We never lock clients in—85% stay with us voluntarily because of our support quality.
