Theme tweaks, custom OCMOD modules, checkout changes, and integrations, built so your next OpenCart upgrade does not undo them.
Base scope of work β applies to all tiers. See the tier comparison below for hours and SLA specifics.
Header, footer, product page, category grids restyled to your brand. Done in a child theme or through OCMOD so core files stay untouched.
Features OpenCart does not ship: custom product options, B2B pricing tiers, delivery-date pickers. Packaged as an installable module, not pasted into core.
Local gateways and couriers the marketplace does not cover. We have wired up Stripe, regional banks, and courier APIs with live rate calculation at checkout.
One-page checkout, custom fields, guest-checkout rules, and cart logic for bundles and quantity discounts.
Product and order sync with 1C, accounting software, ERPs, and marketplaces through OpenCart's API or a custom bridge.
Slow store? We profile the queries, fix the worst module offenders, add caching, and cut page load time. Most stores we touch drop a second or more.
Transparent process β you always know what stage we're at and what comes next.
You show us the store and what you want changed. We come back with a fixed quote, or an hour estimate if the scope is open-ended.
We make the changes on a copy of your store, never on live. You get a link to review the work in progress.
You test, we adjust. Two rounds of revisions are included in the quote.
We push to live during a low-traffic window, then watch for issues. Every job carries a 30-day warranty.
Scope transparency β no surprises in the monthly report.
Access we require β passed via secure channel (1Password / Bitwarden).
Small scoped jobs (a checkout field, a styling change, one integration) start around $300. A custom OCMOD module is usually $500 to $2,000 depending on logic. Open-ended work runs on an hourly rate. You get a fixed quote before we start, so there are no surprises on the invoice.
That is the whole point of how we work. We use OCMOD and extensions instead of editing core files, so the next version bump does not wipe your changes. If you inherited a store with hacked core files, we can refactor those into upgrade-safe modifications first.
Both. OpenCart 4 changed the extension and theme structure, so a fair amount of our work is also migrating OpenCart 3 customizations forward to 4 cleanly. Tell us your version on the scope call.
Yes, and it is common. We audit what is there, tell you honestly whether to patch it or redo it, and quote each path. Hacked core files usually cost less to redo properly than to keep patching.
A small change is 2 to 3 days including review. A custom module or integration is usually 1 to 2 weeks. The quote includes a timeline, and we build on staging so your live store keeps running the whole time.
Admin login, FTP or SSH, and either database access or a recent backup. If you can give us a staging copy, even better. We never make changes directly on a live store.
OpenCart is lean and free, which is exactly why most stores outgrow the default theme and marketplace extensions at some point. You need a checkout field that does not exist, a pricing rule for wholesale buyers, an integration with a courier OpenCart never heard of. That is what this service is for.
The thing that separates a good OpenCart customization from a bad one is how it is built. Edit core files directly and your store works until the next update overwrites everything. We use OCMOD and proper extensions instead, so your changes survive upgrades. If you already inherited a store full of hacked core files, we can untangle that first.

Want a fixed price instead of a custom quote? Some jobs we sell as OpenCart store packages with set scope and timeline.
30-day warranty. If a customization we shipped breaks, we fix it free.
