Shopify use case

Turn your Shopify store into an app-store presence.

Turn your Shopify store into app-store presence without replacing Shopify. Prodius keeps Shopify as the source of truth while shaping the mobile app around your catalog, collections, checkout path, retention moments, and launch operations.

What the app supports

A focused app channel for your existing store.

  1. Keep Shopify as the source of truth — products, collections, pricing, checkout, and inventory all sync live. Zero migration risk, zero double-entry.

  2. Replace your Tapcart-style take rate with a flat $52,000/year. At $5M app GMV, that's roughly $50,000 back in your pocket; at $20M, it's over $300,000 a year.

  3. Turn Shopify Flow triggers — abandoned cart, restock, VIP tier — into native push, the channel that converts repeat shoppers without paying Meta for every visit.

  4. Live on the App Store and Google Play in 30 days from build start, or your first 3 months are free. $5,000/week credit per missed milestone, automatic.

Workflow

From store review to app launch.

48-hour preview. 30-day launch — or your first three months are free.

  1. 48-hour app preview from your storefront URL

    Send the .myshopify.com URL. Inside 48 hours you get real app screens of your home, PDP, and cart, three push concepts, and the 30-day launch plan — free, no contract, no card.

  2. 30 days from kickoff to live on both stores

    Native iOS + Android build, Shopify checkout integration, 50 push templates loaded, GA4 wired, App Store and Play submissions handled by us. Miss the 30-day mark, your first 3 months are free.

  3. Own the push channel and work it

    Your named pod runs segmented push, restock and drop triggers, and lifecycle journeys — abandoned cart recovery, VIP early access, win-back sequences — so the app becomes the retention engine, not an afterthought.

Four guarantees

The risk is on us. All of it.

Four contractual guarantees. If any one breaks, the remedy is written into the agreement before you sign.

  1. Launch

    Live in app stores in 30 days, or 3 months free.

    If your apps aren't approved and live on both the App Store and Google Play within 30 days of build start, your first three months of service are on us. You keep the apps and the push system regardless.

    3 months free if we miss

  2. Activation

    Five install touchpoints, shipped before day 30.

    We build, copy, and QA five activation touchpoints inside your launch month: post-purchase email banner, order-confirmation page, push opt-in flow, app-store badges, and a one-time install nudge. If we don't ship all five before launch month ends, you get a $2,500 service credit.

    If at any point in the first 60 days you're not thrilled, we refund every dollar. You keep the app, the code, and the assets.

  4. Implementation

    $5,000 credit per week of delay.

    Every milestone has a date. If we miss one, you get a $5,000 service credit per week of delay, applied automatically to your next invoice.

FAQ

Common questions about the Shopify use case.

How do you build a native iOS and Android app for a Shopify store?

We keep Shopify as the source of truth — products, collections, pricing, checkout, and inventory all sync live to the native app. No migration, no double-entry. Send your .myshopify.com URL and inside 48 hours you'll see real app screens, three push concepts, and the 30-day launch plan.

Will I have to replace Shopify or migrate data?

No. The app reads from your existing Shopify Admin via the Storefront API. Your Flow triggers, discount codes, gift cards, and customer accounts all keep working exactly as they do today.

How does this compare to Tapcart for Shopify stores?

Tapcart charges 1.75–2.5% of app revenue — about $102,000/year at $5M app GMV, $362,000/year at $20M. Prodius charges a flat $52,000/year ($10,000 setup + $3,500/month) regardless of app revenue. The gap widens as you grow.

What about Shopify Plus or headless setups?

Yes, both supported, but they go through the invitation-only Atelier tier — custom scope, custom MSA. Standard Shopify and Shopify Advanced land on the Signature Program directly.

When does the Shopify app go live on the App Store and Google Play?

Inside 30 days of build start, or your first three months are free. App Store and Google Play submission, device QA, and review responses are handled by your pod — not by you.
