Why NZ & AU merchants choose a local specialist over an offshore agency
Overseas agencies don’t know TradeMe. They’ve never configured Cin7 for a NZ retailer or dealt with StarshipIt carrier mappings. They can’t advise on NZ-specific Shopify Payments quirks or AU marketplace compliance.
ClickBrown is built from the inside out on the tools NZ and AU merchants actually depend on — not international platforms that happen to have a NZ option bolted on.
NZ’s largest marketplace. Live accounts managed via Omnivore — not just read the docs.
NZST. Mon–Fri 8:30am–5pm. No chasing an offshore team at midnight when something breaks.
No account managers. No junior handoffs. Direct line to the person building your system.
Cin7 Omni webhooks and StarshipIt integrations running live — not theoretical knowledge.

Common questions
Offshore agencies don’t know TradeMe, Cin7, or StarshipIt — the platforms NZ and AU merchants depend on daily. They can’t advise on NZ Shopify Payments behaviour or AU marketplace compliance. ClickBrown is Christchurch-based, operates in NZST, and has run these tools in live production for 6.5 years.
Our rate is NZD $150–200/hr. A TradeMe or eBay setup typically runs $1,500–$3,000. A Shopify–Cin7 integration starts around $2,000–$5,000. Retainer support from $800/month. All in NZD with fixed-scope proposals — no surprises.
Yes — we work remotely with merchants across all of NZ and Australia. Being Christchurch-based means we share your timezone and business hours. Everything runs via email, Slack, or Zoom.
Yes — TradeMe and eBay AU are our strongest marketplace specialties. We’ve managed live accounts using Omnivore, DataFeedWatch, and direct integrations. Account setup, feed configuration, category mapping, and ongoing optimisation all covered.
No — most automation, marketplace, and integration work applies to any Shopify plan. Shopify Plus unlocks checkout extensions and some advanced API features, but it’s not a requirement. If you’re unsure, just reach out and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
