Hello world!

Read More →OpenMalo builds custom Shopify stores and Shopify Plus solutions for Australian retailers and brands. Our Melbourne and Sydney Shopify experts have launched 130+ Shopify stores — from custom Liquid theme development to complex Shopify Plus implementations with custom checkout extensions, Shopify Flow automations, and multi-channel integrations — helping Australian businesses sell more online.
We build 100% custom Shopify themes from a blank Shopify theme base — no Debut, Dawn-modified, or ThemeForest templates. Custom themes are coded in Liquid with tailored section schemas, giving your editors flexible page building within a design that is unique to your brand and not shared with thousands of other stores.
We configure and integrate: Afterpay and Zip (BNPL), Klaviyo (email and SMS marketing), Gorgias (customer support), Recharge (subscriptions), Loop Returns (returns management), Shippit and Australia Post (shipping and fulfilment), Xero and MYOB (accounting sync), and the Google and Meta channels for Shopping and social commerce.
Shopify Plus gives access to: Checkout Extensibility for custom checkout UI; Shopify Flow for no-code automation workflows; Shopify Scripts (being replaced by Functions) for custom discounting and pricing logic; wholesale B2B channel with dedicated trade portal; dedicated support line; and increased API rate limits for high-volume integrations.
We configure Australia Post eParcel and StarTrack API for live rate calculation and label generation, Sendle for competitive flat-rate alternatives, and Shippit for multi-carrier intelligent routing. Customers see accurate shipping costs at checkout based on their postcode, order weight, and dimensions — reducing cart abandonment caused by shipping cost surprises.
Shopify SEO configuration includes: JSON-LD Product and BreadcrumbList schema; canonical URL handling for collection filters; Google Merchant Centre product feed via native Google channel; optimised meta title and description templates; and XML sitemap configuration. Google Analytics 4 eCommerce tracking with purchase events and revenue attribution is set up as standard.
Yes — we migrate product catalogues, customer accounts, order history, and blog content from any platform (WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce, Wix) into Shopify. We also map all old URLs to new Shopify URLs with 301 redirects and validate in Google Search Console that existing organic rankings are preserved post-migration.
Yes — Shopify Plus includes a dedicated B2B channel with: account-based pricing; net payment terms (Net 30, Net 60); purchase order workflows; draft orders; quantity rules and volume pricing. The B2B portal is accessible from a separate URL with trade customer login — completely independent from the consumer storefront experience.
We implement GA4 eCommerce tracking (purchase events, revenue, ROAS by channel), connect the Google and Meta pixels, configure Klaviyo revenue attribution, and build a Shopify Analytics dashboard covering daily sales, AOV trends, top products, and returning customer rate — giving you a complete picture of store performance.
OpenMalo Technologies has launched more than 130 Shopify and Shopify Plus stores for Australian retailers, wholesalers, and direct-to-consumer brands over 13 years. Our Melbourne and Sydney Shopify team includes certified Shopify Plus developers who understand the specific requirements of the Australian market — Afterpay and Zip BNPL, Australia Post fulfilment, Xero accounting integration, and GST-compliant checkout flows. We build Shopify stores designed to convert, not just look good.
Shopify projects are delivered on a fixed-price milestone basis including custom theme development, all required app configuration and integration, product catalogue migration (for relaunches), analytics setup, staff training, and 30 days of post-launch support. Ongoing Shopify management, CRO testing, and Shopify Plus development are available from AUD $1,000/month.
