A Shopify store built in Estonia, connected to the systems you already use.
For a retailer with up to a few thousand products who wants to launch in weeks and run the store without a developer afterwards. We build the theme, set up Estonian payments and parcel machines, connect your accounting, and stay on as the people who answer when something breaks.
- Set up on every store: Montonio or Maksekeskus, Omniva, Itella Smartpost and DPD parcel machines, Estonian VAT, Directo or Merit if you use them.
When Shopify is the right platform, and when it isn't.
We build on three platforms, so we have no reason to push Shopify where it doesn't fit. This is the test we run in the first call.
Shopify fits when
- You sell physical products, from a few dozen to a few thousand, with simple variants such as size and colour.
- Your own team will add products, run campaigns and edit pages. Shopify's admin is the easiest of the three to learn.
- You sell in Estonia today and want to add Finland, Latvia or the rest of the EU later without rebuilding the store.
- You would rather pay a monthly fee than look after a server, updates and security patches.
Choose something else when
- You have tens of thousands of products, several warehouses with their own stock rules, or B2B price lists per customer. That is Magento work.
- The store is a small part of a large content site on WordPress. WooCommerce keeps everything in one place.
Three Shopify jobs we do.
-
A new Shopify store
A theme from your brand or from a proven base, written in Liquid and built for the phone first. Estonian and English from the start, Finnish or Latvian when you need them. Payments, parcel machines, VAT and your accounting connected before launch. Your team gets admin training on launch day.
-
Moving a store to Shopify
From WooCommerce, Magento, PrestaShop, Voog or a custom store. Products, customers, discount codes and order history come along. Every old address redirects to its new page, so the Google rankings you have earned are kept. The old store stays live until you have placed test orders in the new one.
-
Theme, app and integration work
A new section in your theme, a private app that sends orders to Directo or Merit, stock sync with Erply, a Klaviyo flow, a product configurator, a faster product page. Fixed-price jobs of one to three weeks, for stores we built and for stores we didn't.
Shopify in Estonia: what we set up on every store.
Shopify is American and assumes American payments and shipping. An Estonian store needs the local layer below, and it is the part most Shopify tutorials skip.
- Delivery
- Omniva, Itella Smartpost and DPD parcel machines with the machine list inside the checkout, courier delivery, pickup from your shop. Labels print from the order.
- Accounting and stock
- Directo, Merit, Erply or SmartAccounts. Orders and invoices go across on their own; stock levels come back to the store, so nobody types an order twice and nothing is sold that isn't on the shelf.
- Languages and markets
- Estonian, English, Finnish, Latvian, Russian as needed. Separate prices, VAT and delivery per country through Shopify Markets, from one admin.
- Marketing and tracking
- Klaviyo email flows, Google Shopping feed, Meta catalogue, GA4 with purchase events that match your real orders. Consent banner that works with Estonian and EU rules.
How long and how much.
- New Shopify store
- Moving a store to Shopify
- Theme, app or integration job
- Monthly care
- per month, cancel monthly
Bring your store or a product list. You leave the call with a range for your case, not a generic one.
How a Shopify project runs.
Six steps, in this order. You see the store at the end of every week, not at the end of the project.
-
The call. 30 minutes. We look at what you sell, how many products, which systems the store must talk to, and whether Shopify is the right choice at all.
-
The proposal.
-
The build. Theme, products, payments, delivery and integrations on a development store you can open at any time.
-
Test orders. You place real orders with real cards. We check that each one lands in your accounting, that the parcel label prints and that the customer's emails arrive.
-
Launch.
-
After. A monthly care plan with a named person, or a call whenever you need one. If the store breaks on a Saturday, we fix it on Saturday.
Shopify stores we have built.
Larger stores we run on Magento, such as Skechers.ee and Ballzy.eu, are on the Magento page. More examples of our work are under Work.
Questions people ask about Shopify in Estonia.
Can the checkout show Omniva, Itella and DPD parcel machines?
Yes. The customer picks a machine from a list in the checkout, the label prints from the order and the tracking number goes into the shipping email. Pickup from your own shop and courier delivery sit next to it.
Who owns the store and the theme?
You do. The store is on your Shopify account, the theme code is in your account, the domain is in your name and the apps are paid from your card. If we part ways, nothing stops working and any Shopify developer can continue.
Can we manage the store ourselves afterwards?
Yes, and that is the main reason to pick Shopify. Your team gets training on launch day; most clients add products, run campaigns and edit pages themselves and call us for theme changes and integrations.
