How Much Does a Shopify Bug Fix Cost?
A diagnostic-first approach: from $40 covers investigation and simple fixes, with clear pricing for complex repairs.
Something broken on your Shopify store? The cost to fix it depends on the root cause. We use a diagnostic-first approach: a flat $40 fee covers the investigation and includes the fix if it’s straightforward. For more complex issues, you get a clear quote before we proceed.
Pricing Breakdown
One hour of investigation to identify the root cause. If the fix is simple (CSS issues, minor JS fixes, configuration problems), it’s included in this fee.
- CSS display issues
- Minor JavaScript errors
- Configuration problems
- Simple layout fixes
Beyond the diagnostic fee. Fixes that require JavaScript logic changes, functionality restoration, or moderate debugging time.
- Cart not updating properly
- Filter/search not working
- Event handler issues
- Form validation broken
Plugin conflicts, cross-browser issues, or extensive debugging. Often involves multiple interacting systems or code from other developers.
- Multiple app conflicts
- Intermittent/hard-to-reproduce bugs
- Cross-browser display issues
- Third-party code debugging
What Affects the Cost?
Root Cause Clarity
A clear description with screenshots and URLs helps us diagnose faster. Vague reports like “something’s wrong” take longer to investigate.
Third-party App Involvement
Bugs caused by app conflicts are harder to diagnose because we’re debugging someone else’s code. These typically fall in the complex category.
Cross-browser Issues
Issues that only appear on specific browsers or devices require additional testing time and often more complex fixes.
Code Origin
Clean, well-structured code is faster to debug. Legacy code or modifications from multiple developers take longer.
The Bottom Line
Most Shopify bugs are fixed starting from $40. You always know the cost before complex work begins — if we quote additional work and you decline, you only pay the $40 diagnostic fee.
