Custom Solutions We've Built
TAX EXEMPTION FUNCTIONALITY
SPECIALIST ID
PROBLEM
Specialist ID provides shoppers with lanyards, ID badge holders, and badge reels at wholesale prices. Some of their clients are tax-exempt but they had no way of directly sending Specialist ID their certificate for approval. The company was clearly losing business due to this obstacle.
SOLUTION
The team of expert developers and programmers at Optimum7 was able to create a tax-exempt functionality right on the clients’ website for customers to use. This functionality allows tax-exempt customers to apply their certificates to the Specialist ID database. Specialist ID can now approve any pending tax-exempt clients on the backend and speed up the conversion process.
★★★★★ 5/5
Optimum7 has proven to me that they are an excellent Shopify development agency. They have provided me with expert SEO consultation, support, and services over the past year.
They really took ownership of the entire process and exceeded my expectations. They have proven to me that they have the “chops” to consistently drive business results for my company with their ongoing support. It is great to have a partner like Optimum7 as they have freed me to focus on other key areas of my business while they devise a digital strategy (email marketing, social media marketing, etc.) for my eCommerce store. With this confidence and peace of mind, I will continually be improving my online presence and business. Traffic is double over the same period last year (2019) and sales are up 400%. Really great stuff!
Optimum7 has been able to integrate a product customization feature to show our customers a preview of their custom-designed product before adding it to the cart. This has been invaluable for both us and our customers.

How is the Shopify user experience?
When you start using any eCommerce platform you will experience a learning curve, Shopify’s learning curve is a bit steeper than most other eCommerce platforms due to the jargon the platform uses for certain elements. For example, as an eCommerce business, you will have categories to put your products in. On Shopify, categories are “collections” and you match each of your products to their respective collection.

A highly valued feature of Shopify is the ability to integrate multiple payment methods on your eCommerce site. Some integrations Spotify allows include:
- PayPal
- Credit card
- Money order
- Cash on delivery
Though Shopify allows for all these different types of payment options, they do charge an additional transaction charge on top of any payment gateway you use other than Shopify Payments. If you do not want to get charged additional transaction fees, keep to only using Shopify Payment powered by Stripe.
Is the basic Shopify plan worth it or should I upgrade?
The best way to determine if the “Basic Shopify” plan or the “Shopify” plan is not according to the additional tools you receive because some of these tools can be found on competitor platforms for similar prices. As a business owner, you should make an analysis of how these extra tools will help you grow your specific business. These tools may be beneficial for your neighbor, but it does not be they will benefit your company.
Now, what is the tool that differentiates the “Basic Shopify” plan and the “Shopify” or “Advanced Shopify” plan that most if not all companies can benefit from? It is the “Abandoned Cart Recovery” tool that allows you to automatically follow up with prospects if they have abandoned their cart. eCommerce giants like Amazon use this tool to increase their sales and lower abandoned cart rates. Why shouldn’t you?
