How It Works ?

Pay for performance improvements*

We bill you if the performance score goes up!

We have a number of in house tools to optimize code and a wealth of knowledge on how to tune 3rd Party apps such as Klaviyo, Judge.me and Sezzle to name a few.

* Based on the Google Lighthouse Reporting against the Live website, demonstrating a before and after performance increase on a specific page type.

Frequently asked questions

How does pay-for-performance pricing work?

We audit your Shopify theme, identify performance improvements, and develop them. You only pay if your Google Lighthouse score increases — we measure before and after on your live storefront on specific page types.

What causes a Shopify store to be slow?

Common causes include unoptimised third-party scripts, oversized images, render-blocking CSS and JavaScript, and poorly integrated apps such as Klaviyo, review widgets, or loyalty programs.

How do you measure the speed improvement?

We use Google Lighthouse reports run against the live storefront before and after our changes on specific page types — typically the homepage, collection page, and product page.

Which pages do you optimize?

We focus on the pages that matter most to conversion: homepage, collection pages, and product detail pages. Each engagement begins with a full theme audit using our proprietary SilverPonies Theme Analyzer tool.
