Shopify App Development

Custom Shopify apps for the features you can't buy off the shelf.

GrowOrbits builds custom Shopify apps for merchants and agencies in India and worldwide. When no app in the Shopify App Store does exactly what you need, or four apps are doing one job badly, we build one that fits your workflow. Private apps for your own store, or public apps you can sell to other merchants.

Who it's for

When a custom app makes sense

You pay for several apps that each do part of one job, and they still don't talk to each other.

Your Shopify store needs to sync with an ERP, CRM, warehouse or accounting tool like Zoho or Tally.

You need logic no app offers: a product builder, B2B pricing, custom bundles or special discount rules.

You want to build a public app and sell it to Shopify merchants worldwide.

FAQ

Questions about custom Shopify apps

What is the difference between a custom app and a public app?

A custom app is installed on one store and built only for that business. A public app can be installed by any merchant from the Shopify App Store and needs billing, onboarding and Shopify's review.

How long does a Shopify app take to build?

A focused custom app usually takes 4–6 weeks. Public apps take 8–12 weeks, plus Shopify's review time. We give you a week-by-week plan after the scoping call.

Do I need Shopify Plus?

Only to customise the checkout steps themselves. Admin tools, integrations, theme app blocks and most Shopify Functions work on every Shopify plan.

Who owns the app and the code?

You do. The app is created in your Shopify Partner account and the code lives in your repository.
