Shopify app development at Nexta, in short

Shopify app development at Nexta covers custom apps built for one store and public apps for the Shopify App Store. We build admin apps, theme app extensions, checkout UI extensions and Shopify Functions for discounts, delivery and payment rules, plus integrations with Indian tools such as Razorpay, Shiprocket and Tally. Every project gets a fixed written quote within 24 hours of a free call. Most custom apps ship in three to eight weeks.

Problems that bring merchants to us

“We pay for eighteen apps and the store has become slow”

Every app adds its own script to the theme. Together they push your mobile load time up while the monthly bill keeps growing in dollars.

“Our discount Scripts stopped working”

Shopify switched off all Scripts on 30 June 2026. Tiered discounts, hidden shipping rates and payment rules that ran for years quietly vanished from checkout.

“There are hundreds of apps, but none does exactly what we need”

One app handles B2B pricing, another handles COD checks, a third syncs stock, and they do not talk to each other. You want one small app that fits your process.

“An uninstalled app left code behind in our theme”

Old apps edited theme files directly. They are gone from the admin but their snippets still load, still slow the store down, and sometimes break the cart.

“Our app was rejected by Shopify review”

The feedback mentioned billing, authentication or performance, and your developer is not sure what to change. Each resubmission costs another week.

Shopify app development work we take on

Custom apps for one store

An app installed only on your store or your Plus organisation: order tagging, B2B price lists, warehouse routing, custom reports, ERP or Tally sync. No App Store listing, no approval wait.

Public apps for the App Store

Built for App Store requirements from day one: OAuth and session tokens, Shopify billing, GraphQL Admin API only, privacy webhooks, and performance kept within Shopify’s Lighthouse limit.

Theme app extensions

App blocks and app embeds that merchants place in the theme editor, so nothing is pasted into theme code and nothing is left behind when the app is removed.

Shopify Functions

Discount logic, delivery and payment customisation, cart and checkout validation and bundles, running inside Shopify’s infrastructure rather than as a slow script.

Scripts to Functions migration

We read your old Ruby Scripts, list what each did, and rebuild them as Functions with test cases so the same cart gives the same price as before.

Checkout and post-purchase extensions

Delivery date pickers, GSTIN fields for B2B buyers, gift notes and order status page content through checkout UI extensions, within the limits of your Shopify plan.

Indian commerce integrations

Razorpay or PhonePe payment reconciliation, Shiprocket or Delhivery shipping, COD verification by OTP or WhatsApp, pincode serviceability checks and GST invoice data for your accountant.

From idea to installed app

  1. 1Week 1

    Requirement call and store review

    We look at your store, apps and theme with collaborator access and agree what the app must do and what it must not touch.

  2. 2Week 1

    Decide distribution

    Custom or public, and which extensions and Functions are needed. Shopify does not let you change distribution type later, so we settle it in writing.

  3. 3Week 2-6

    Build on a development store

    Shopify CLI, the official app template and Polaris for the admin UI. You test on a development store that mirrors your products.

  4. 4Week 6-7

    Test and review prep

    Lighthouse comparison before and after install, uninstall test, and for public apps a screencast, test credentials and listing copy ready for Shopify’s reviewers.

  5. 5Week 7-8

    Install or submit, then support

    Custom apps go live on your store. Public apps go to review and we handle feedback until approval.

What you get

  • Working app installed on your store, or submitted to the Shopify App Store
  • Source code in a Git repository owned by you
  • App created under your own Partner or Dev Dashboard account
  • Theme app extensions and Functions with written test cases
  • Hosting for the app backend on infrastructure we run, or on your own cloud
  • Before and after Lighthouse report for storefront impact
  • Admin guide for your team and API notes for future developers
  • Listing copy, screenshots and review screencast for public apps

Pricing

Fixed quote within 24 hours

Shopify apps are quoted per project with a fixed written price within 24 hours of a free call. App hosting is billed monthly at cost. Shopify plan fees, the Partner registration fee and any paid APIs are paid by you directly.

Every price shows GST and the total. Nothing is added after you enquire.

Where we differ from the usual app agency

We will tell you if an existing app is enough

If a well-maintained app already does the job for a few dollars a month, building your own is a waste. We say that on the call and suggest the app instead.

The store stays fast

Theme app extensions only, scripts loaded where they are needed, and a Lighthouse check before handover. Shopify itself asks public apps not to drop scores by more than 10 points, and we hold custom apps to the same line.

Indian payments and shipping are familiar ground

COD rules, UPI reconciliation, pincode checks, GST data and Shiprocket labels are day-to-day work for us, not something learned on your project.

You own the app outright

The app lives in your account and the code is in your repository. If you sell a public app, the revenue goes to your Partner account, not ours.

Is this right for you?

A good fit if

  • Shopify merchants whose process is not covered by any existing app
  • Plus stores that lost Scripts and need equivalent Functions
  • Founders planning a public Shopify app for India or global merchants
  • Agencies abroad needing a dependable Shopify app developer under NDA

Probably not the right fit if

  • A new store setup or theme design, which is covered on our e-commerce website page
  • Tasks a free or low-cost App Store app already handles well
  • Apps that need to bypass Shopify’s checkout or API rules; we will not build those

Shopify app development: frequently asked questions

Something else? Call +91 7500-4300-91 or WhatsApp us.

It depends on whether the app is custom or public, how many extensions and Functions it needs and which systems it connects to. A focused custom app is a small project; a public app with billing, onboarding and review preparation is several times larger. After a free call you receive a fixed written quote within 24 hours, with hosting and third-party costs shown separately.

A custom app is installed on one store or stores in one Plus organisation, needs no Shopify approval and cannot charge through Shopify billing. A public app is listed on the App Store, can be installed by any merchant and must pass Shopify’s review. The choice is permanent for that app, so we decide it together first.

Yes. Shopify stopped running all Scripts on 30 June 2026, and Functions are the replacement. We rebuild your discount, shipping and payment rules as Functions and test them against real carts. Note that custom apps containing Functions can only be used on Shopify Plus; non-Plus stores need a public app that includes the Function.

Most custom apps take three to eight weeks. Public apps take longer because of billing, onboarding screens and the review cycle, which can add one or more rounds of feedback. The timeline is written into the quote.

It should not, and we check. We use theme app extensions instead of editing your theme, load scripts only where needed and compare Lighthouse scores before and after installing. You get that report at handover.

Under Shopify’s current terms, developers keep all of their first one million US dollars of gross app revenue earned from 1 January 2025 and pay 15 percent above that. There is a one-time 19 US dollar registration fee per Partner account, and a separate processing fee applies to billing.

A short description of the problem in your own words, collaborator access to your store, a list of the apps you already pay for and, for integrations, API access to the other system such as your courier, gateway or ERP. For a public app we also need your Partner account, your pricing plan idea and a few merchants willing to test it before submission.

You do. We create the app in your Partner or Dev Dashboard account and push code to your repository. If you later hire another developer, they can continue from where we stopped.

Yes. Most public app founders sell to merchants worldwide, and we work with clients in the UK, Gulf, Australia and North America. Fixed quotes in USD, GBP or AED are available on request, and we sign an NDA before you share the idea.
