Why hire a Shopify developer based in Australia?

Development is delivered remotely, so location matters less than experience. For Australian stores, three things make a local developer worth it.

Working hours. A developer in Europe has no overlap with Australian business hours, and one in the US only a few hours, so questions often wait a day. An Australian developer answers within your working day, which matters during a launch or a sale.

GST. GST is 10%, and businesses register once their turnover reaches A$75,000. The developer should set up GST collection in Shopify's tax settings and check it on real orders.

Price display. The ACCC requires a single total price, including GST and any unavoidable fees, shown as prominently as any part price. Stores set up the US way show prices before tax, so ask how they handle it.

How much do Shopify developers in Australia cost?

32 of the 61 Australian developers on shopexperts list a starting price: the smallest job they will quote, shown in US dollars. It is not the price of a build.

Median starting price

$190

Across 32 Australian profiles

Middle half of starting prices

$90 – $490

Small fixes to scoped work

Developers that start at $1,000+

7

Builds and retainers

13 developers take jobs of $100 or less, so a small first job is easy to arrange before a bigger one.

Australian quotes are usually in Australian dollars. Ask whether each one includes GST, and compare quotes against the same written scope. For full build costs, see our guide to Shopify custom development cost.

Where Australia's Shopify developers are based

New South Wales has the most developers on this page (22), followed by Victoria (18), Queensland (10), the ACT (7), Western Australia (3) and South Australia (1).

By city, Sydney has 9, Melbourne 7, Canberra 6 and the Gold Coast 4, with more in inner suburbs such as South Yarra and Surry Hills. For a city list across all services, see Shopify experts in Sydney, Melbourne or Perth.

Perth runs two or three hours behind Sydney, depending on the season, so a WA store may prefer a developer who keeps WA hours.

Frequently asked questions about Shopify developers in Australia

How many Shopify developers are there in Australia?

shopexperts lists 61 Shopify developers based in Australia: 56 agencies and 5 freelancers. New South Wales has 22, Victoria 18, Queensland 10, the ACT 7, Western Australia 3 and South Australia 1.

How much does a Shopify developer cost in Australia?

Of the 32 Australian developers who list a starting price, the median is $190 and the middle half start between about $90 and $490, in US dollars. 13 take jobs of $100 or less. Builds and retainers are quoted per project, usually in Australian dollars.

Do I need an Australian developer, or can I hire offshore?

Either works for well-scoped work. An Australian developer shares your working day, knows GST and price display rules, and can meet in person. Offshore teams can cost less, but their working hours overlap with yours for a few hours at most.

Will my developer set up GST?

They should. GST is 10%, and you register once turnover reaches A$75,000. Your developer adds your registration in Shopify's tax settings, makes sure prices show GST-inclusive, and tests it on a real order. This is not tax advice; confirm the rules with your accountant.

Can an Australian developer set my store up for New Zealand?

Yes, with Shopify Markets for NZD pricing and NZ shipping. Overseas sellers of low-value goods register for New Zealand GST (15%) once their NZ sales pass NZ$60,000 a year, so check with your accountant before you launch.

Are there Shopify freelancers in Australia?

A few: 5 of the 61 developers here are freelancers and 56 are agencies. For a single small job, a freelancer elsewhere can work, as long as you agree overlap hours up front.
