Get Started

Tackling a Big Project?

Our partnership packages are perfect for ongoing needs, but we also enjoy handling large, one-time projects. Project work – like launching rebrand implementations, building Shopify stores, and replatforming - helps keep us sharp. to bring your vision to life.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a limit to the amount of tasks we can request?

Of course not. You will have access to unlimited requests, with timelines determined by the complexity of each task. We do not bill you by the hour or by the project.

Our objective is to turnaround deliverables to your team swiftly, ensuring speed does not compromise the quality of craftsmanship. In the rare event of large amounts of work, we may ask to pause or prorate work until the next billing cycle. Say farewell to fluctuating budgets and unfinished projects.

Why wouldn't I just hire a full-time staff member or freelancer?

Great question! A full-time senior developer or designer can cost over $100k a year (plus benefits), and finding one who’s available—and not secretly outsourcing—is tricky. Even then, you’re often paying for downtime when there’s not enough work to keep them busy.

Freelancers are solid too, but if you don’t have consistent work, they’ll naturally prioritize clients who do. Plus, most freelancers focus on one craft—Fifth Effect brings a whole team of Shopify pros: developers, designers, strategists, and consultants.

With our monthly plan, you’re in control. Pause and resume anytime, so you only pay for work when you actually need us. Simple as that.

What if I only have a single request?

That’s perfectly fine! Once your task is completed, you can pause your subscription until you have more work ready.

This flexibility ensures you get full value from your subscription without wasting days. If you prefer, we can also provide a fixed-price quote for larger, one-off projects.

How fast will I receive my work?

On average, most requests are completed within the following timelines, but every project is different—complexities and timelines can vary:

- Development requests: Small tasks are typically completed same day to 1-3 business days. Larger projects (like building a landing page) may take 2-4 weeks, depending on complexity.

- Design requests: 3-5 business days.

- Technical & consulting requests: Same day to 3 days, depending on scope.

While turnaround times may vary, you’ll never be left wondering what’s going on. We always aim to respond to your questions or messages the same day or within 24 hours on business days.

How does the pause feature work?

We know your workload can vary, so we’ve made it easy to pause your subscription when you don’t have enough tasks to fill the cycle.

Billing works in 30-day cycles. For example, if you use 21 days of your subscription and decide to pause, the clock stops. You’ll have 9 days left to use whenever you need them—whether that’s next week or next month.

Are there any refunds if I don't like the service?

Due to the high-quality nature of our work, we don’t offer refunds. That said, client satisfaction means everything to us, and we’re happy to review any concerns on a case-by-case basis.

Is there a limit to how many requests I can have?

Once subscribed, you can add as many requests as you like to your queue, and we’ll deliver them one (or two) at a time.

Feel free to prioritize tasks as needed—Low, Medium, High, or Urgent—and communicate changes via our client portal chat.

How do I request work?

Requesting work is easy and flexible. You can submit tasks through our client portal any way that works best for you—whether that’s sharing a Google Doc, uploading wireframes, or recording a quick video. If you can describe it, we can get started.

What if I don't like the work?

Revisions aren't often needed due to our thorough quality control and high standards, but if something doesn’t align with your expectations, no worries—we’ll keep revising until you’re 100% satisfied.

Who's on the team?

At Fifth Effect, you’ll work with a dedicated technical project manager who acts as your main point of contact throughout your experience.

Behind the scenes, our in-house team of Shopify experts—including developers, designers, and strategists—collaborates to deliver the high-quality solutions you need. This approach ensures clear communication, consistent results, and a seamless experience every step of the way.

Are there any requests you don't cover?

Absolutely. For design, we primarily focus on web-related requests and do not cover the following: motion design (3D illustrations, modeling, animated graphics), social media creative, presentation decks, document design (legal, medical forms, etc.), complex packaging, or extensive print design (magazines, books, etc.).

For development, we’re capable of handling most requests. However, we may opt for a fixed-price quote or decline requests for custom apps, themes, or integrations, depending on scope and complexity.

How do I get started?

Getting started is simple. You can book a call with us to confirm we’re a good fit, or just click “Subscribe” on the pricing table above to check out and complete a short questionnaire.

Once done, you’ll receive an email to join our client portal, where you can submit tasks and start working with us. If we didn’t chat before your purchase, we’ll reach out to schedule a strategy workshop call to learn about your brand, goals, and current needs. This ensures we deliver a world-class Shopify support experience tailored to you.

Feel free to ask as many questions as you need—we’re here to make sure everything fits perfectly before we dive in.

I want to migrate to Shopify, rebrand to a new theme, and/or have a large project to tackle. Will this service cover that?

It can, but... large projects like migrations or rebrands are a big undertaking. Let's discuss your specific needs to ensure our service aligns perfectly with your goals, or if a project-based quote would serve you better.
