Common questions

Shopify App Development Cost Brighton.

What Brighton indie, sustainable and fashion brands ask before launch.

Does Talmee work with Brighton Shopify brands?

Yes. Talmee designs, builds and runs Shopify mobile apps for Brighton brands across South East England and the wider UK market. Brighton hosts one of the UK's highest concentrations of independent fashion, beauty and homeware DTC brands per capita. The team is UK-based and accustomed to indie, sustainable and fashion catchments like Brighton.

What does a Shopify mobile app actually cost in Brighton?

Talmee runs a flat monthly Flagship plan with no build fee and no revenue share. Pricing is published, the same number for a Brighton brand as for a London or Manchester one. Compared to revenue-share builders charging 0.5-2.5% of app GMV, the flat-fee model is materially cheaper once app revenue scales past the first few thousand pounds a month.

Is there a build fee or setup fee?

No. The flat monthly plan covers strategy, UX design, build, launch, App Store and Google Play submission, and ongoing releases. There is no separate one-off project cost on top.

How do I forecast app ROI for a Brighton brand?

Three inputs: (1) your current mobile-web AOV and conversion rate; (2) the share of revenue from returning customers; (3) realistic install volume from your existing audience (email list, post-purchase, smart banners). Talmee's ROI calculator at /roi models these explicitly. Most Brighton Shopify Plus brands are app-channel positive within the first 3-6 months.

What is included in the monthly fee?

Strategy, UX design, React Native build, manual + automated QA, App Store and Google Play submission, monthly releases, push retention setup, analytics integration, and direct founder access. There are no hidden tiers or add-ons.

Are there extra costs from Apple or Google?

Yes, but they're paid directly to Apple and Google, not Talmee. Apple Developer Program is currently US$99/year per company. Google Play Console is currently a one-off US$25 per developer account. Both are set up under your brand. No platform fees flow through Talmee.
