Riyadh — Shopify App Developer

Built for Riyadh, delivered senior-only

When no app in the store does exactly what your store needs — a custom integration, a merchant-facing tool, a public app for other merchants — a bespoke Shopify app is the answer. I build Shopify apps on the Admin and Storefront APIs with proper auth, webhooks, billing and review-readiness, so the app survives Shopify's review, real merchant volume, and API version changes.

Selling in Riyadh means Arabic-first storefronts with right-to-left layouts, mada and Apple Pay alongside cards, STC Pay for mobile-first buyers, and Tabby and Tamara instalments plus cash on delivery where your customers expect them. VAT runs at 15% with ZATCA e-invoicing requirements, and delivery inside the capital is set by SMSA, Aramex and SPL, with same-day and next-day options across Riyadh's districts from Olaya and KAFD to Diriyah. Saudi Arabia's Personal Data Protection Law governs customer data, and Riyadh's concentration of headquarters, malls and new districts makes it the natural launch city for a Kingdom-wide brand. I am Omer Muneer Qazi, with 15+ years of experience and 100+ projects delivered. Riyadh business hours — Arabia Standard Time (UTC+3), with a Sunday-to-Thursday working week and Friday–Saturday weekend. Dubai is one hour ahead, so overlap covers the full Riyadh working day for calls, reviews and launches. Let’s talk Riyadh hours.

What you get

What a Riyadh shopify app developer engagement covers

Custom apps for one store — private or custom apps that solve your store's specific workflow, integrated with your theme, ERP or fulfilment tools.
Public apps for the App Store — listing-ready apps with onboarding, billing, support docs and the polish Shopify's review process actually checks.
API and webhook engineering — Admin, Storefront and GraphQL APIs with webhook handling, retries and idempotency, so no order or event is silently lost.
Embedded admin experience — Polaris-based embedded apps that feel like part of Shopify, not a bolted-on external dashboard.
Version and billing discipline — API version upgrades planned, usage billing or subscriptions implemented cleanly, and merchant data handled per Shopify's rules.
Riyadh specifics — Riyadh-ready checkout and delivery — mada, Apple Pay, STC Pay, Tabby and Tamara, cash on delivery where it fits, ZATCA VAT and e-invoicing, and SMSA, Aramex and SPL delivery across Riyadh.

How it works

From kickoff to Riyadh launch

App definition
The problem, the merchant workflow, the data it touches and the billing model agreed, with Shopify's rules checked up front.
Build in slices
Auth and core workflow first, then admin UI, webhooks and billing, each slice reviewable on a development store.
Review preparation
For public apps: listing, screenshots, support docs and test flows prepared for Shopify's review before submission.
Launch and maintenance
Staged rollout, monitoring, version-upgrade plan and support, so the app keeps working as Shopify evolves.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Custom app or existing app?

If an existing app does 90% of the job, buy it. A custom app earns its cost only where the workflow is genuinely specific or the public app's fees exceed the build cost over time.

How long does Shopify review take?

It varies, and resubmissions are common. Review preparation is built into the schedule so a rejection is a fix, not a surprise.

Who owns the app?

You do — code, listing and merchant relationships, in your accounts. No dependency on me for routine operation.

What happens when Shopify changes its APIs?

Version upgrades are part of maintenance. Deprecated calls are tracked and migrated on Shopify's schedule, not after a breakage.

How do Riyadh working hours and payments work?

Work runs Sunday to Thursday on Arabia Standard Time, with Friday–Saturday as the weekend, and full overlap for calls and launches. Payments cover mada, Apple Pay, STC Pay, Tabby and Tamara plus cash on delivery where appropriate, with 15% VAT and ZATCA e-invoicing handled in the setup.
