We build and run the systems behind online stores.
Grounded Carts is an Australian agency experienced in software development, Shopify builds, integrations and day-to-day ecommerce operations.

Lower app costs
We replaced an Australian coffee company's paid shipping software and Shopify apps with custom-built tools, saving them over $7,500 a year.

Shopify redesigns
We can build a private, working preview of your redesigned store before you decide. How it works
Working with us
One point
of contact.
You deal with Richard directly. We agree the scope in writing first, then build, test and hand over.
Changes are tested before they go live, backups are kept, and you get plain-English updates and handover notes.
Tell us what you need and we'll agree the plan with you before anything is built.
Start with a conversation
Tell us what
you need.
Send a few lines about your business and what you're after, and Richard will reply, usually within 2 business days.
Prefer email? Write to us directly. Richard reads every message himself.
A few useful answers
Before you ask.
How much does it cost?
Each job is priced once we understand what you need. There are no fixed packages on this site.
Can you take on just one part, like integrations or dispatch?
Yes. Each service can be taken on its own or together with the others.
Who will I be working with?
Richard, directly, from the first message to handover.
