Why maintenance matters
What breaks without regular maintenance.
Shopify stores aren't set-and-forget. Four problems show up repeatedly in stores that haven't been maintained.
Outdated apps break checkout
Shopify apps update constantly. When an app version conflicts with your theme or another app, the symptom is often a broken cart or checkout — the worst possible place for something to go wrong. Monthly reviews catch these before your customers do.
Theme conflicts after Shopify updates
Shopify pushes platform updates that can conflict with theme customizations. An unmaintained theme can show layout breaks, broken mobile views, or disappeared functionality without you knowing for weeks.
Expired SSL or domain issues
An expired SSL certificate shows a browser security warning to every visitor. Most store owners don't know this has happened until a customer tells them. Monitoring catches it before it affects sales.
Missed security patches
Shopify apps with known vulnerabilities are regularly patched. Running outdated app versions leaves your store and your customers' data exposed. Monthly patch reviews are the fastest way to stay ahead of this.
How it works
Month-to-month. No setup friction.
Month-to-month billing
No annual contracts. Pay monthly, cancel anytime with 30 days notice. No questions asked, no cancellation fees.
No setup fee for existing Pixeltree clients
If we built your store, Canopy Care activates immediately. For new retainer-only clients, there's a one-time $97 onboarding fee to audit your current store setup before we take it over.
Monthly summary delivered to your inbox
Every month you get a short summary: what was updated, what was checked, and any issues we found and resolved. You stay informed without having to log in.
Edits via email
Need a product price changed, a banner swapped, or a page updated? Email us. If it fits within your monthly hour, it's done. If it's a larger project, we scope it separately.
Retainer questions
Questions about the Canopy Care plan.
No. Month-to-month billing, cancel any time with 30 days notice. We don't lock you in because we don't need to — the plan either delivers value or it doesn't. If it's not working for you, a single email cancels it.
Yes. You can add Canopy Care at any point after launch. If we built your store, just reply “add canopy care” to any Pixeltree email and we'll set it up for your next billing cycle. For new retainer-only clients, there's a one-time $97 onboarding to audit your store before we take over maintenance.
One hour covers the kinds of changes store owners need regularly:
- Copy changes — product descriptions, page text, announcements
- Product updates — price changes, variant edits, new listings (up to 5)
- Banner swaps — homepage images, seasonal promotions
- Minor layout tweaks — section reordering, spacing adjustments
- Link updates — navigation, footer, CTAs
Design overhauls, new feature development, and major redesigns are scoped separately. If you're not sure whether something fits in an hour, ask — we'll give you a straight answer.
