FAQ

Commercial FAQs for British Businesses

Clear answers on UK business hours alignment, fixed stage pricing in GBP (£), and outside-IR35 contracting.

How does headless commerce improve our UK Google search visibility? ▼
By delivering sub-second Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) and zero layout shifts, headless sites pass Google Core Web Vitals with flying colors on Google.co.uk.
Can we still use our existing Shopify backend and apps? ▼
Yes. All order management, inventory tracking, shipping rules, and payment gateways remain in your familiar Shopify admin; only the frontend presentation is upgraded.
How is UK VAT calculated on headless storefronts? ▼
Prices are passed through Shopify Storefront API with UK standard 20% VAT calculations built in, ensuring full transparency for British consumers.
Are headless commerce contracts handled outside of IR35? ▼
Yes. All engagements are deliverable-focused with defined milestones and fixed fees in GBP (£), executed strictly outside IR35.
Can our marketing team edit homepage banners without a developer? ▼
Yes. We connect the frontend to a headless CMS like Sanity or Builder.io, allowing your marketing staff to change banners, copy, and promotions visually.
Who owns the source code and deployment assets? ▼
You retain 100% intellectual property ownership of all Next.js frontend code, React components, and deployment pipelines under English Law.
