    The Shopify and Codal partnership is a powerful combination of Shopify’s leading eCommerce platform with Codal’s expertise in UX design, development, and digital transformation.

     

    Since becoming one of the first Shopify Plus Partners in 2016, we’ve worked with businesses to leverage Shopify’s B2B and DTC capabilities, optimizing storefronts, integrating complex backend systems, and enhancing user experiences. Through this collaboration, brands are able to streamline operations, drive conversions, and maximize their eCommerce potential.

     

    Now, the team at Codal is thrilled to announce that we’ve officially been recognized as a Shopify Platinum Partner—the highest designation in Shopify’s newly restructured Partner Program. Only 15 agencies in the world have earned this achievement, with only five located in the United States. Codal stands out as the only Platinum Partner in Illinois, reinforcing our position as a premier Shopify development agency. Additionally, we’re one of only four agencies in the United Kingdom to achieve Shopify Platinum Partner status.

     

    The new partnership tier enables us to collaborate more closely with Shopify leadership, empowering us to drive greater innovation and scalability for our clients. We’ll contribute to the development of new platform features, ensuring our clients have the tools they need to enhance their digital commerce experience.

Platinum status requires partners to meet rigorous commercial and credential requirements, demonstrating exceptional performance in revenue contribution, deal minimums, and Shopify Verified Skills attainment.

    Driving Success for Mutual Clients

    Thermos Case Study

     

    Thermos needed a top-tier Shopify Plus development agency to bring its legacy eCommerce website to the next level. Codal partnered with the consumer products manufacturer to reimagine its digital experience, ensuring a seamless migration to Shopify Plus while also aligning with its long term goals. Through an in-depth discovery process, Codal gained a deep understanding of Thermos’ business needs, enabling the design and development of an intuitive storefront that reflects the brand’s heritage and enhances the customer journey. Codal also provided hands-on training and live coding workshops, empowering the Thermos team to efficiently manage their new platform.

    OriginUSA Case Study

     

    OriginUSA, a leader in the online apparel market, needed to improve engagement, conversions, and search visibility to stay competitive. As expert Shopify developers and consultants, Codal partnered with Origin to optimize its store through a strategic blend of conversion rate optimization (CRO), technical search engine optimization SEO, and UX enhancements.

     

    Through an iterative CRO testing approach, UX improvements were made including refined checkout flows, strategic content placement, and enhanced pricing presentation. Using advanced testing methodologies and real-time performance monitoring, data-driven optimizations that directly contributed to revenue growth were delivered. To help boost SEO, product data, structured metadata, and technical elements were optimized, increasing product snippet visibility by 95% and boosting product clicks by 17.5%.

     

    Since the enhancements were implemented, Origin saw a 20% increase in add-to-cart rates, a 15% boost in checkout completions, and $46K in additional revenue during testing. By combining precise experimentation with scalable SEO enhancements, Codal positioned Origin for long term digital growth.

     

    cpap.com Case Study

     

    cpap.com needed an advanced Shopify solution to support its complex eCommerce and prescription processing requirements while maintaining a strong SEO presence. Codal partnered with the leading sleep apnea retailer to execute a highly involved SEO migration, ensuring minimal disruption to search rankings while optimizing the site’s structure for growth. Through custom Shopify development, we enhanced the customer experience with interactive quiz flows for personalized product recommendations and seamless product variant handling.

     

    A key challenge was the intricate prescription processing system, which required mapping 99 metafields and automating order validation. Codal architected a groundbreaking solution leveraging AWS Bedrock and Anthropic Claude, enhancing OCR extraction quality and automating prescription verification with AI-driven logic. This innovation significantly accelerated time to market and minimized manual intervention, streamlining operations for cpap.com.

     

    Now, the company benefits from a modern, intuitive Shopify storefront that empowers customers in their sleep apnea journey, while its backend operations are more efficient than ever. By blending best-in-class eCommerce capabilities with intelligent automation, Codal has set a new standard for prescription-based digital commerce.

     

    "Codal was an invaluable partner in our digital transformation and rebrand launch. They led the design and development of our new eCommerce platform, guiding us through a seamless transition from Magento and custom-built systems to the Shopify ecosystem, improving performance, scalability, and the customer experience.

     

    “They also developed a custom AWS-based prescription processing system that streamlined order fulfillment and reduced customer issues. Throughout the project, Codal worked collaboratively with our internal teams and stakeholders, ensuring alignment and efficiency. Their deep bench of expertise, strong industry relationships, and forward-thinking approach allowed them to solve challenges quickly and with the future in mind. We couldn’t be more pleased with the results." - Adam Lazarus, Director of Product at CPAP
