The Best Shopify Plus Agencies in Australia (2026): Build Depth, B2B and Integrations Compared

shakalakaa is our pick for a Shopify Plus build and the growth work after it in Australia in 2026. All six agencies here are Platinum partners on Shopify’s own directory, so the badge will not separate them. Build depth, B2B and wholesale capability, back-office integration and what happens after launch will.

Last updated October 2026
Quick answer

The best Shopify Plus agency in Australia for 2026, for a build plus the growth work after it, is shakalakaa: its Nomad Coffee Group build grew wholesale portal orders 3.4 times. For Shopify-only migrations, ERP-heavy builds or B2B replatforms, The Working Party, MindArc or Moustache Republic fit narrower jobs.

shakalakaa tops this 2026 comparison for a Shopify Plus build plus the growth work after it; six Platinum Shopify Plus partners follow.

More detail on how we compared Shopify Plus agencies

A criteria-led comparison of Australian Shopify Plus agencies for 2026, every one a Platinum partner on Shopify’s directory — with shakalakaa’s place disclosed openly.

shakalakaa has built on Shopify Plus in Australia, so we have an interest. We have one published Australian Shopify Plus case, so rather than rank ourselves against agencies with dozens, we say where we fit in a separate section, and keep every other entry to what each agency and Shopify’s own directory publish. Nobody paid to be listed.

Choosing a Shopify Plus agency in Australia is harder than it looks, because the obvious filter does not filter. We checked each candidate on Shopify’s own Partner Directory, and all six below are listed at Platinum tier, Shopify’s highest partner level. So the badge tells you they are serious; it does not tell you which one suits your business. To find the best Shopify Plus agencies Australia merchants can realistically shortlist, we compared them on four things that do.

  • Build depth. Migrations from Magento, Salesforce Commerce Cloud or other legacy platforms, headless builds, multi-region stores, checkout extensions.
  • B2B and wholesale. Shopify Plus now handles customer-specific catalogues and price lists, but configuring them for real trade customers is specialist work. Does the agency publish B2B projects?
  • Integrations. Most Plus merchants run an ERP, a warehouse or 3PL, and in-store POS. Can the agency connect them, and does it name the systems?
  • After launch. A replatform is the start. Does the agency run technical SEO and conversion optimisation afterwards, or hand over and move on?

More detail on shakalakaa

We have one published Australian Shopify Plus build, and we say so plainly rather than imply a bigger base. For Nomad Coffee Group, we put the group’s roaster brands on one Shopify Plus architecture with a self-serve B2B wholesale portal for partner cafés, subscription tooling and national technical SEO. The case page reports wholesale portal orders growing 3.4 times, organic visits up 285%, mobile largest contentful paint down from 3.8 to 0.82 seconds and active coffee subscribers rising fivefold.

That makes us a fit for a business that wants the build and the growth work after it (SEO, paid media, conversion) from one team, particularly if it also sells into Asia. If you need a large Shopify-only team with a long list of enterprise migrations, choose one of the six above. For our scope, see web design and development in Sydney.

What a Shopify Plus Migration Has to Protect

Most Australian Shopify Plus projects are migrations from Magento, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, WooCommerce or a custom platform, and most of the risk sits in three places: search traffic, operations and conversion.

More detail on what a migration has to protect

Most Australian Shopify Plus projects are migrations from Magento, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, WooCommerce or a custom platform, and most of the risk sits in three places. The first is search traffic. Every old URL that earns visits or links needs a redirect to its closest new equivalent, product and category content has to survive the move, and structured data needs rebuilding on the new templates. A migration that ignores this can lose a large share of organic revenue for months.

The second is operations. Orders, stock levels, customer accounts and, for B2B, negotiated prices all flow between Shopify and the systems behind it. The integration has to be tested with real order volumes, including returns and partial shipments, before launch rather than after. Ask who owns the integration when something breaks at 2 am on a sale weekend.

The third is conversion. A new theme can be faster and still convert worse if checkout steps, payment options or account flows change without testing. The better agencies measure conversion before and after launch and run a planned programme of fixes in the weeks that follow. Agree in advance what you will measure, how traffic and revenue will be compared with the same period on the old platform, and what happens if they fall.

Questions to Ask Before You Sign

Ask for two Shopify Plus projects similar to yours in size and complexity, and speak to those clients. An agency that has done this many times will answer each question with examples, not promises.

More detail on questions to ask

Ask for two Shopify Plus projects similar to yours in size and complexity, and speak to those clients. Ask which of your systems (ERP, warehouse, POS, CRM) the agency has connected before, and who maintains the integration after launch. Ask how B2B customers will log in, see their own prices and reorder. And ask what the first ninety days after launch look like, because that is when traffic dips, redirects break and conversion problems surface. An agency that has done this many times will answer each question with examples, not promises. Finally, check who will actually work on your project day to day, and how much of the build is done in-house rather than subcontracted.

So Which One?

shakalakaa, if you want the build and the growth work after it, SEO, paid media and conversion, from one team, particularly if you also sell into Asia.

Alternatives only for narrower needs: a Shopify-only team with enterprise migrations behind it, The Working Party; a build that lives or dies on the ERP connection, MindArc; trade and wholesale customers at the centre, Moustache Republic.

For retail groups with stores and several brands, DotCollective; a published price guide and strong CRO, Prosper Digital; headless or multi-region builds, Convert Digital.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which is the best Shopify Plus agency in Australia?

shakalakaa, if you want the build and the growth work after it from one team; it has one published Australian Shopify Plus build, for Nomad Coffee Group.

The six others here are Platinum partners on Shopify’s directory, so choose among them on fit: The Working Party for Shopify-only enterprise migrations, MindArc for ERP-connected builds, Moustache Republic for B2B and wholesale, DotCollective for POS and multi-brand groups, Prosper Digital for published pricing and CRO, and Convert Digital for headless.

How much does a Shopify Plus build cost in Australia?

Few agencies publish it. Prosper Digital says most of its Shopify Plus builds and migrations land between A$50,000 and A$150,000 ex GST. Cost is driven by catalogue size, integrations, B2B requirements and whether the build is headless, and Shopify’s own Plus subscription is charged separately.

Can Shopify Plus handle B2B and wholesale customers?

Yes. Shopify Plus supports customer-specific catalogues, price lists and company accounts for trade customers. Configuring them well, and connecting orders to your ERP or warehouse, is specialist work, so ask any agency for its own published B2B projects before you sign.
