FAQ

05 / FREQUENTLY ASKED

Standard Shopify ties your backend and frontend together. You are limited to Shopify themes. Headless splits them. Shopify handles products, checkout, and stock. Your custom frontend handles design and UX. Headless is faster and more flexible, but also more complex and costly.

Headless projects are major investments: $40,000-$100,000+ based on scope. You are building a custom app, not using a theme. The ROI is strong though. Faster load times mean higher sales rates and less cart loss. Most headless builds pay for themselves within 6-12 months.

Yes. You manage products, pricing, and orders in Shopify Admin like normal. The frontend is separate, but the backend stays simple. We set up an easy interface for custom CMS needs. We also provide training and guides.

Not always. Headless works best for DTC brands with complex needs, high speed demands, or unique visions. Standard Shopify is great for simpler stores and smaller budgets. We suggest headless for brands doing $500K+ revenue or with very specific design goals.

That is the beauty of headless. Your backend is a set of APIs. You can build web, iOS, Android, AR, or even kiosks using the same backend. Adding channels is simple because logic is already apart from the interface.
