Brisbane · Australia and New Zealand

Balar Media Group provides Shopify and Shopify Plus development for online stores across Australia and New Zealand. Our Brisbane developers build custom themes and sections, private apps, checkout and B2B customisations on Shopify Plus, and integrations with accounting, inventory and fulfilment systems.

Shopify Development

What does a Shopify developer do?

Takes the store beyond what themes and apps offer. A developer builds the sections your team needs in the theme editor, writes custom functionality instead of stacking paid apps, connects Shopify to the systems behind your business and, on Shopify Plus, customises checkout and wholesale pricing.

Beyond The Theme

Custom where it counts. Standard where it does not.

Custom themesPrivate appsShopify PlusIntegrations

Every app adds a monthly fee and loading time. We replace app stacks with lean custom code where it pays off, and keep the apps that earn their place.

Theme work is done on a duplicate theme and previewed before it is published, so the live store is never the test bench.
