Branding & Visual Identity

The logo, palette, type and collateral that make a brand look like it belongs at its price point — not like it was assembled from a template.

  • Graphic and marketing design
  • Social, packaging and ad creative

UI/UX & Product Design

Interfaces designed before they are built. We work out how the thing should behave, then hand the developer a design that already answers the hard questions.

  • App and dashboard interface design
  • User flows and wireframes
  • Design systems and component libraries
  • Figma files built for handoff

We Build On What
Fits Your Business.

Not every project belongs on the same platform. We pick the one that matches your budget, your team and how far you plan to grow — then build it properly.

Ecommerce Platforms

Six years and 500+ stores on Shopify. We know where the conversion leaks are before we open the theme editor, because we have fixed them hundreds of times.

  • Shopify and Shopify Plus — custom themes, apps, checkout extensions
  • BigCommerce and Magento for catalogues that outgrow Shopify
  • Migrations that keep your rankings and your redirect map intact
  • Subscription, wholesale and multi-currency setups
Shopify Shopify Plus Liquid Hydrogen BigCommerce Magento Klaviyo Recharge

Best for: brands selling physical products who need a storefront that converts and a back office that does not fight them.

Stores, Sites
And Software.

A storefront doing real revenue, a local firm that needed to be found, a SaaS product, and a scheduling app with a live database behind it.

Started SONEXT as a freelancer. Built it to Fiverr's top-rated Shopify seller with 1,046 five-star reviews across 500+ stores. MerchantUp is the next chapter — the same expertise, direct.

Your Web
Development Partner.

We didn't start MerchantUp from zero. We built SONEXT from zero — 1,046 reviews, 500+ projects, 6 years as a top-rated development partner. MerchantUp is that same expertise, working directly with the brands and founders who deserve better than a freelance platform.

When you work with us, you're not getting a new agency learning on your dime. You're getting a team that has seen every web problem — and solved it — hundreds of times over.

End-to-End Delivery

Design, build, launch and support in one place. No handoffs between three agencies who blame each other when something breaks.

1,046 Five-Star Reviews

Six years of public, verifiable feedback across 500+ projects. Not testimonials we wrote ourselves.

You Talk To The Builder

No account managers relaying messages. You speak directly with the person writing the code.

The Right Platform

We recommend what fits your budget and your team, even when that means a smaller invoice for us.

Built To Be Found

Technical SEO and AI search visibility are part of the build, not an upsell after launch.

Support After Launch

30 days of post-launch support on every project, and a reply inside four hours when you need us.

No Surprises. No Hidden Fees.

Common Questions

No. Ecommerce is where most of our 500+ projects sit, but we also build business websites, SaaS product sites and custom web applications in React and Next.js. Recent work includes a scheduling application with a live database and a hand-coded site for a professional services firm. Tell us what you need and we'll tell you honestly whether we're the right fit.
Simple Shopify sites take 5–7 days. Most professional builds take 10–14 days. Larger or Shopify Plus projects are scoped individually. We always give you a firm deadline before we start — and we never miss it.
Our Shopify development starts from $800 for a Starter build, $1,500 for Professional, and $3,000+ for Enterprise or Shopify Plus. All packages are fixed-price — no surprise invoices. See the full pricing page for a complete breakdown.
We built SONEXT — Fiverr's top-rated Shopify development partner with 1,046 five-star reviews. Working directly with MerchantUp means no platform fees, direct access to Faizan (not a junior account manager), a revenue-focused strategy, and 30-day post-launch support as standard.
Every project includes 30 days of free post-launch support — bugs, tweaks, questions, all covered. After that, we offer flexible monthly retainers for ongoing Shopify updates, SEO, or CRO work.
