The Shopify agency
Singapore DTC brands
actually trust

Shopify Singapore stores convert at 1 to 2 percent on average. Yours can reach 3 to 4 percent with the right CRO team owning it end to end.

The reason it stalls is fragmentation across designer, developer, and marketer. We rebuild Singapore Shopify storefronts (UX, speed, checkout, retention flows) and report what each change earned.

?

You already know something's wrong. You just can't pinpoint what.

Singapore's DTC space is competitive. Consumers expect the same store quality they get from global DTC brands. The brands pulling ahead aren't spending more on ads — they've fixed their stores.

Pain 01

You can see the gap. You can't close it.

You visit a competitor's store and it's immediately clear they're operating at a different level. Better design, smoother flow, more trust. You know your products are just as good — but the store doesn't show it.

Pain 02

Traffic is there. Revenue isn't following.

20,000+ visitors a month and the conversion rate doesn't budge. Something is clearly broken in the funnel — but without knowing where visitors are dropping off, every fix is a guess.

Pain 03

You want someone to own it, not just advise.

You've had conversations with agencies, read threads, bookmarked articles. Now you're more confused, not less. You don't need more opinions — you need a team that takes responsibility for the outcome.

Not another Shopify developer.
An embedded growth partner.

Most ecommerce agencies in Singapore hand you a finished project and disappear. We work differently.

01 — Audit First

We show you exactly what's possible before touching anything

Before any design work, any development, any retainer — we audit your store and map the gap between where you are and where your top competitors are. You see the roadmap. You decide if you want to walk it. If the gap is mostly visual, the engagement turns into SG conversion-led ecommerce design work; if it's deeper, we scope a build.

No guesswork. No generic recommendations. A precise diagnosis of what's holding your store back, specific to your catalog, your traffic, your Singapore market context.

02 — Everything in One Place

Design, dev, CRO, strategy — no handoffs, no gaps

The typical agency model fractures accountability. Your design agency blames the developer. The developer blames the brief. Nobody owns the outcome.

WebMedic brings everything under one roof — ecommerce design, custom development, and conversion rate optimisation. One team accountable for how your store looks, how it converts, and how it grows. No briefing three separate vendors, no waiting for handoffs — just execution.


03 — Ongoing Partnership

Embedded in your business, not parachuted in for a project

The DTC brands winning in Singapore right now are not running one-off redesigns every two years. They have a technical partner who is constantly improving — fixing conversion leaks, testing new ideas, clearing backlogs.

That's how we work. As your dedicated ecommerce partner, we become your store's team — not a contractor you file a ticket with, but a partner who knows your catalog, your customer, and your goals.

The Singapore Shopify facts most agencies skip

A copy-and-translate competitor will not list these. Anchor your platform decisions on local reality, not borrowed US numbers.

Shopify plan pricing
Billed in SGD for Singapore-set accounts. Basic SGD 39 per month, Grow SGD 132 per month, Advanced SGD 531 per month. Annual billing drops to SGD 29, 99, and 399 (25 percent discount).
Shopify Payments
Available in Singapore since the 2024 country expansion. Requires SG business verification and SG bank account. HitPay, Stripe Singapore, and eNETS still useful where PayNow QR aggregation or non-card flows matter.
Local gateways
HitPay, Stripe Singapore, eNETS, PayNow QR (via HitPay or Stripe), GrabPay.
BNPL
Atome, ShopBack PayLater, Grab PayLater are the common SG BNPL integrations.
GST
9 percent (effective 1 January 2024). Registration required above SGD 1 million turnover, optional below. Set via Shopify Markets per region.
Tax authority
IRAS (Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore). Sales tax registration and filing happens via IRAS, not via Shopify.
Hosting and CDN
Shopify edge has a Singapore POP, so storefront serving is fast for local visitors. No additional CDN configuration needed for SG-only stores.
Shopify Experts
Filter the official Shopify Experts directory by Singapore at experts.shopify.com. Worth listing on if you are an SG-based agency.
Time zone
SGT (UTC+8). Same working hours as KL, HKT, and BJT, so a regional partner can support SG operations without overnight handoffs.

12,000+ SKUs, same ad spend, 1.2% to 1.9% in six weeks

Anonymised Singapore travel accessories DTC brand. The owner thought the ads were the issue. The ads were fine.

1

Collection filter UX

With 12,000+ SKUs the existing filter set was either too broad or too noisy. Visitors could not narrow down to what they wanted fast enough, so the browse-to-PDP rate stayed flat.

2

Shipping cost transparency

Final shipping total was only visible at the last checkout step. Shoppers dropped off when the number revealed. Surfaced the calculator on the product page and in cart.

Klaviyo post-purchase review prompt

No flow prompted reviews after delivery, so social proof on PDPs stayed thin. Wired a post-delivery review request into Klaviyo with photo capture.

FAQ

Common questions about Shopify in Singapore

Is there a Shopify agency in Singapore?

Yes. WebMedic is a Shopify agency working with Singapore DTC brands. Browse vetted local options on the official Shopify Experts directory at experts.shopify.com filtered by Singapore.

How much does a Shopify developer in Singapore cost?

Freelance Shopify developers globally bill USD 25 to 150 per hour depending on seniority, per industry surveys from CartCoders and BlackBelt Commerce. Singapore-based developers sit at the higher end of that band. Monthly support retainers range from USD 1,000 to 5,000 for ongoing work, more for complex stores. WebMedic works on monthly retainer, not hourly.

How long does a Shopify development project in Singapore take?

A typical initial transformation runs 6 to 12 weeks. After that the engagement moves into a monthly retainer for ongoing development, CRO, and optimisation work.

Which payment gateways work best for Shopify in Singapore?

Shopify Payments is available in Singapore since the 2024 country expansion and is the simplest path for international card flow. HitPay is the go-to for aggregating PayNow QR, GrabPay, and eNETS into one local checkout. Stripe Singapore is the alternative when Shopify Payments verification is not yet complete or when richer card configuration is needed.

Does Shopify charge GST in Singapore?

Singapore GST is 9 percent (effective 1 January 2024). Shopify subscription fees are invoiced from outside Singapore; GST-registered merchants account for them under the reverse-charge mechanism. For store sales, register with IRAS once turnover exceeds SGD 1 million, then configure GST in Shopify Markets per region.

How do I migrate from Shopline or WooCommerce to Shopify in Singapore?

Three steps: export products and customers from the source platform, rebuild the theme on Shopify, and ship a redirect map so legacy URLs do not 404. Typical timeline is 3 to 6 weeks depending on catalog size and theme complexity. If you have not committed to a target platform yet, the platform comparison for SG stores walks through Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and Wix side by side.

What is the difference between a Shopify Partner and a Shopify Expert in Singapore?

A Shopify Partner is any developer or agency enrolled in the Shopify Partner program; the bar is low. A Shopify Expert is vetted by Shopify, must pass a quality screen, and is listed on experts.shopify.com. Both Partners and Experts can be Singapore-based.

Can WebMedic work with Singapore brands from Malaysia?

Yes. WebMedic is headquartered in Kuala Lumpur and works with Singapore DTC brands on Singapore working hours (SGT, same time zone as KL). The Malaysia counterpart page at /shopify-malaysia covers the equivalent service for MY brands.

What does a Shopify agency do?

A Shopify agency builds, launches, and grows stores on Shopify. The scope covers theme development, custom app work, conversion rate optimisation, checkout configuration, app integration, platform migrations from WooCommerce or Shopline, and ongoing support. A Shopify agency differs from a freelance Shopify developer in two ways: an agency carries multi-discipline staff (design, dev, CRO, SEO) and operates as a retainer rather than per-ticket. WebMedic is a Shopify agency working with DTC brands in Singapore, Malaysia, and the UAE.

Do I need a Shopify agency or a freelance Shopify developer?

A freelance Shopify developer fits one-off tickets. A Shopify agency fits ongoing work. Pick a freelancer when you need a single theme tweak, a one-time integration, or a fixed-scope landing page. Pick a Shopify agency when development is continuous, you need design plus dev plus CRO under one roof, or your store is past USD 50,000 monthly revenue and downtime costs more than retainer fees. The free scorecard shows you whether the gaps in your store are freelancer-sized or agency-sized.

What does a Shopify agency cost globally versus in Singapore?

Shopify agency rates fall in three bands. North American and Western European agencies bill USD 150 to 250 per hour, retainers from USD 5,000 to 25,000 monthly. Singapore-based agencies sit at USD 100 to 180 per hour. South East Asian agencies (Malaysia, Philippines, Vietnam) bill USD 50 to 120 per hour. Industry surveys from CartCoders and BlackBelt Commerce confirm this banding. WebMedic operates from Kuala Lumpur on Singapore time zone, on a monthly retainer, not hourly.

What does a Shopify agency engagement look like month to month?

Month one is discovery and audit. The output is a prioritised backlog ranked by revenue impact. Month two to three: ship the top three items, measure conversion lift, repeat. From month four: steady-state retainer rhythm of weekly ships, monthly CRO reviews, quarterly strategic check-ins. A Shopify agency should ship inside the first 30 days, not just plan; if no commit has landed in week four, the retainer is wrong. WebMedic uses this rhythm with every Shopify Singapore client.

What does a Shopify marketing agency do?

A Shopify marketing agency owns traffic, not the store. The work covers paid ads (Meta, Google, TikTok), email and SMS automation (Klaviyo, Postscript), conversion landing pages, retargeting, and influencer partnerships. A Shopify marketing agency is the demand-generation half of the stack; a Shopify development agency (like WebMedic) is the supply-side half. Most growing Singapore DTC brands run both: a Shopify development agency for the store, a Shopify marketing agency for the funnel. The two stacks must coordinate, or attribution falls apart.
