OM Oman

/ Shopify Plus Partner for Omani brands

Shopify development company in Oman.

We design, build and replatform Shopify and Shopify Plus stores for Omani brands: Maal and local cards at checkout, full right-to-left Arabic, VAT-inclusive pricing and clean order data for the ledger behind your e-invoices. AI is part of every build, not an add-on.

/ Payments, tax and Arabic

Maal, instalments and Arabic, built into checkout.

Omani shoppers pay with Maal and local cards, spread larger baskets into instalments and expect VAT in the shelf price. We build all of it into checkout and theme.

Maal

Maal, Oman's national card, at checkout

Maal is the Central Bank of Oman's National Payment Card, issued by licensed banks as debit, prepaid and credit cards, with acceptance widening in phases.

Acceptance

Settled locally, where Maal works

Maal pays on Omani sites that support the local payment gateway, not on international ones for now, so your checkout has to settle locally.

OmanNet

OmanNet, reached through your acquirer

OmanNet is the Central Bank's card switch, not a Shopify app. We set your acquirer's gateway as the primary method and map its reference onto every order.

Instalments

Buy now, pay later, placed where it sells

We connect the instalment providers that serve Oman and design their message into the product page and basket, not the app's default block.

VAT

VAT-inclusive prices, exemptions modelled

Oman's standard VAT rate is 5%, with exports zero-rated and a short exempt list. We price tax-inclusive, model exemptions in the catalogue and pass tax data straight to your ledger for Fawtara.

Returns

Refunds and refused parcels, rehearsed first

An instalment refund reverses with the provider and on the order; a refused cash delivery reverses with courier, warehouse and ledger. We rehearse both before go-live and match each settlement file to its orders.

Arabic

Right to left, built into the theme

Shopify signals each language's direction; the rest is theme work. We mirror the grid, flip chevrons, set numerals and line height, then test on a phone.

Bilingual

Arabic and English on one record

Shopify Markets gives the Arabic store its own URL path and hreflang, and each product record holds both languages, so no second catalogue drifts.

/ Shopify work

Shopify stores we built, moved and scaled.

Middle East luxury fashion, a 1.1M-SKU replatform, a B2B and B2C store for dealers and a footwear brand selling across 20+ marketplaces. Each card opens the full case study.

/ Omani clients and work

Our Omani record reaches beyond commerce: a university content portal built on Kentico, and Omani organisations on our published clients wall.

/ What we build

Shopify development services, built for Oman.

One team covers storefronts, Shopify Plus, B2B, custom apps, migration and integrations. Every build starts wired for Maal and local cards, Arabic, and the ledger that issues your e-invoices.

/ Delivery

A working store to review at every stage.

Four stages, each closed with a demo on your own catalogue. Scope sets the band, from a theme rebuild in 3 to 8 weeks to an enterprise programme over 6 to 12 months.

01020304
Step 01

Fit and scope

Catalogue, acquirer, channels and the finance hand-off are settled on paper first, with whoever files your VAT return in the room.

Step 02

Design and build

Both languages are designed side by side, the theme is kept upgrade-safe, and you test a working store every two weeks.

Step 03

Integrate and launch

Acquirer, instalment provider, ledger and courier are wired, then rehearsed end to end with real orders. Nothing goes live until there is a way back and monitoring is already watching.

Step 04

Run and grow

A backlog you can see, a compatibility pass against each Shopify release, and the owner you met at kickoff still answering afterwards.

/ Proven accelerators

Solved once, reused on your build.

Four patterns already shipped and measured: a staged replatform, checkout past native limits, a dealer portal and a storefront that leaves the ledger alone. Your programme starts from them.

Enterprise replatform
[3 months]to move 1.1M SKUs off Salesforce Commerce Cloud

Salesforce Commerce Cloud to Shopify for Enterprise

A five-year build moved in monitored stages, with both platforms live, a rollback ready and zero operational downtime. Your programme borrows the sequence: which parts move on which day, and what must be proved first.

Enterprise band · [6 to 12 months]See the playbook →
Checkout
[32+]custom Shopify apps engineered on one programme

Past the native checkout ceiling

The catalogue hit Shopify's three-option variant cap, so we engineered seven-variant products and a discount engine on Functions, among 32+ custom apps. Custom Function apps need Plus, so we check your plan before quoting.

B2B
[2,000]dealers moved to self-service ordering

One storefront for dealers and shoppers

Two thousand dealers left email and spreadsheets for one login, each with a contract catalogue and per-SKU prices, across about 25 price tiers inside Shopify Plus B2B. Omani distributors selling to trade and retail share that shape.

Migration

Magento to Shopify with the ledger left alone

The storefront moved; Odoo kept stock, customers and the books, with product data flowing across in real time. With Fawtara phasing in, that split matters: the shop sells, the ledger invoices, and either can be replaced without touching the other.

/ Partner tier, team and tax

A public Shopify Plus tier, one accountable team.

Our Plus tier and client ratings are public on Shopify's directory. One team scopes, builds and supports your store, and feeds your ledger the order data Fawtara needs.

The tier

Plus tier, rated 5.0 by clients

Shopify's directory lists Brainvire at Plus tier, a Service partner rated 5.0 from ten ratings, partner since August 2021. Some of those reviewers are quoted below.

Due diligence

Ask for the profile link, open it live

Tiers live on Shopify's public partner directory, not in proposals. Ask every shortlisted supplier for its profile link and open it together on the call.

Delivery

Workshops and go-live in Muscat

The same team runs workshops, training and go-live on site in Muscat, and keeps to your working week in between. Whoever scopes your store stays after launch.

Fawtara

Order data ready for Fawtara

Fawtara, the Oman Tax Authority's e-invoicing programme, has run a pilot since August 2026. Your ledger issues the e-invoice, so the store sends it tax treatment, registration details and order lines in an agreed shape.

/ In their own words

What clients say after go-live.

Brainvire has helped our business grow. It feels like a true partnership: seven great years, and we’re looking forward to more.

/ Questions Omani buyers ask

Shopify in Oman: what buyers ask first.

Can your team work on-site in Oman?

Yes. A dedicated team runs discovery workshops, user testing and go-live on site in Muscat or wherever you operate. Between visits, sprint demos run on a call during normal working hours in Oman. The lead who scopes your store stays on the account, backed by 1,000+ engineers across 10+ global locations.

How broad is your published Shopify record?

Broad, and every case is open to read. The cards above cover Sacoor Brothers in Middle East fashion, Shop LC's 1.1M-SKU replatform, Wet Sounds' dealer store and a footwear brand on Odoo and Shopify. Beyond Shopify, we built a Kentico content portal for an Oman-based public university.

What sets the timeline and cost of a Shopify build?

Scope sets both. Plan on 3 to 8 weeks for a theme rebuild, 8 to 12 for a small store, 12 to 24 for mid-market and 6 to 12 months for an enterprise programme. Catalogue size, connected systems, a second language and extra Gulf markets push the band up. Discovery fixes the price.

Which payment methods matter most in Oman?

Maal and other local bank cards come first, then international cards, instalments and cash on delivery. Gulf gateways that serve Oman include Amwal Pay, Paymob, Telr, MyFatoorah, noon payments and Amazon Payment Services. Cash on delivery needs its own rules: an order ceiling, delivery areas and a refused-parcel path.

Can a Shopify checkout take the Maal card directly?

Yes, through a local acquirer rather than an app. Maal pays on Omani sites that support the local payment gateway, not on international websites. We choose an acquirer connected to that gateway, make it the primary method and map its reference onto every order. OmanNet and Thawani follow the same route.

What does Fawtara mean for my store?

It changes your ledger more than your storefront. Fawtara, the Oman Tax Authority's e-invoicing programme, started with one hundred pilot companies in August 2026. Businesses with annual supplies above OMR 5 million comply from 1 April 2027, and all other VAT-registered businesses from 1 October 2027. Your ledger issues each e-invoice; the store prices VAT-inclusive, flags zero-rated and exempt lines, and hands over structured order data.

Will an Arabic storefront actually read right to left on Shopify?

Yes, once the theme is built for it. Shopify signals each language's reading direction; we add mirrored layouts, flipped icons, your chosen numerals and comfortable line height. Translate and Adapt handles translation, and an Arabic reader signs off every template on a phone.

Is Brainvire a Shopify partner?

Yes. Brainvire is a Shopify Plus Partner, a Service partner since August 2021, rated 5.0 from ten ratings. The profile is public on Shopify's partner directory, so you can read every review before our first call.

Shopify Plus or Adobe Commerce for an Omani catalogue?

It depends how much of the stack you want to own. Shopify Plus hands hosting, patches and peak-day scaling to Shopify, so you launch sooner. Adobe Commerce pays off when many brands or markets share one catalogue with awkward pricing, or the board wants to own the infrastructure. We compare both on your catalogue, margins and channels.

How do Shopify and our finance system talk to each other?

Through a mapped integration, not a spreadsheet export. Order lines, customers, tax treatment and business buyers' registration details flow out in an agreed format, your ledger issues the invoice, and credit notes attach to the right order. Finance never lives in the storefront, so a future replatform stays cheap.
