Best Shopify CRO Agencies (2026)

Best Shopify CRO Agencies 2026: the 10 agencies compared

By the ClickMint team
Updated October 24, 2026 · About a 12-minute read

Disclosure: ClickMint wrote and publishes this list, and we're on it, at #1. We're a done-for-you CRO agency, so read our entry with that in mind. Everything about the other agencies comes from what they publish on their own websites or Shopify Partner Directory profiles as of October 2026. Nobody paid to be included, and we didn't contact any agency about this list. If you spot something out of date, tell us and we'll fix it.

Most "best Shopify CRO agency" lists are written by a Shopify CRO agency.

This one is too.

We're not going to pretend otherwise. What we can do is be useful about it: tell you how we picked, show you what each agency actually publishes about pricing and fit, and be honest about who should hire someone other than us.

Because the right agency depends far less on who has the shiniest logo wall and far more on three boring questions: how much traffic you have, how much you can spend each month, and whether you want a partner who does the work or one who tells you what to do.

What a Shopify CRO agency actually does

A Shopify CRO (conversion rate optimization) agency works out why visitors don't buy, tests changes against a control, and rolls out the ones that win.

That's the job. Everything else is packaging.

The good ones measure what matters to your P&L, not just whether a button got more clicks. A test can raise conversion rate and still lose money if it drags down order value. We've written about that here, and it's the main reason "we lifted conversion rate" is the start of a conversation, not the end of one.

How we chose these agencies

We started from the agencies that rank for "Shopify CRO agency" and that show up again and again in other published roundups. Then we kept the ones that met all of these:

  1. Shopify focus. CRO for Shopify brands is a core service, not a line item buried under SEO and social. Where an agency holds a Shopify Partner tier, we say so and link to the source.
  2. Testing, not opinions. They test changes against a control before rolling them out.
  3. They do the work. They design and ship tests, not only hand over a slide deck.
  4. Public pricing or a clear pricing model. We give extra credit for publishing a starting price or explaining how fees work.
  5. Public proof. Case studies, test volumes or reviews you can check yourself.
  6. Clear fit. They say who they're for, and who they're not for.

We left an agency out when we couldn't verify the basics from public sources. We didn't score or rank the agencies after #1. They're grouped by the type of brand each one fits best, so read for fit, not position.

The 10 best Shopify CRO agencies for 2026

01

ClickMint

That's us

Yes, this is us. See the disclosure above.

Best for

DTC brands doing $200k+ a month in sales and spending $15k+ a month on ads, that want a testing program run for them.

Not the best fit if

you're still building traffic and sales, or you mainly need a store redesign, a replatform or SEO. A Shopify build partner will serve you better there.

ClickMint is a done-for-you CRO agency for DTC brands. We find where each paid channel loses revenue after the click, A/B test fixes against a control, and scale only what beats it. Your team reviews and approves the work instead of doing it.

ClickMint is built for Shopify brands, and it also works with WooCommerce and Adobe Commerce.

What stands out

  • Proof: +93% revenue per user and +65% conversion vs. control, across all our client experiments. Results vary by brand, traffic and test.
  • Scale: trusted by 80+ brands, with $315M+ in ecommerce revenue analyzed.
  • Speed: our typical time from issue to live test is about 3 hours.
  • Pricing: performance-based, so our incentives line up with your revenue.
  • Light lift for your team: your team adds one lightweight snippet. We don't need access to your store, and read access to your analytics is optional.

Good to know

ClickMint was founded in 2026 and is headquartered in Malibu, California. That makes us the newest agency on this list. If a decade-long track record or a high Shopify Partner tier is your top criterion, several agencies below have one.

Why we put ourselves first

it's our list, so of course we did. Here's the honest case. This list is written for the brand that spends real money on ads and wants more revenue from that same traffic without hiring a testing team. For that brand, three things matter most: tests get live fast, every change is measured against a control, and the agency gets paid when you do. That's the combination ClickMint is designed for. If that isn't you, one of the next nine probably is.

02

Blend Commerce

Best for

established Shopify and Shopify Plus brands with consistent traffic (Blend asks for at least 30,000 sessions a month) that want a dedicated Shopify CRO specialist.

Not the best fit if

you're an early-stage brand, or you want a design-only or quick-fix engagement. Blend says so itself.

Blend Commerce describes itself as a specialist Shopify CRO agency. It works across CRO strategy, UX/UI, Shopify development, A/B testing, implementation and QA with an in-house team, and says it draws on a decade of work with more than 300 Shopify stores. Its prioritisation runs on its own frameworks, PECTI and the Buy Trifecta®.

What stands out

  • Shopify Plus tier partner, listed in the Shopify Partner Directory since August 2015, with its primary location in Henley-in-Arden, UK.
  • Lists CRO Agency of the Year wins for 2022 and 2026 among its awards.
  • Serves brands across the US, Canada, the UK, Europe, the Middle East and Australia.

03

Netalico

Best for

mid-market and enterprise DTC brands doing $2M–$50M GMV, especially on Shopify Plus.

Not the best fit if

you're well below its $2M GMV starting point.

Netalico is a Shopify Plus Premier Partner that runs research-driven CRO, including audits, A/B testing and UX, with what it calls a fully in-house Americas team working US hours. It's one of the few agencies that publishes its retainer range.

What stands out

  • Retainers from $2,700 to $10,000 a month, with the average client around $4,500. One-time audits and fixed-scope projects are also available.
  • Uses Shopify Plus features such as Checkout Extensibility to test experiences that standard plans can't.
  • Publishes client results on its CRO page, including one client's conversion rate rising from 1.75% to 2.4%.

Compare with ClickMint

04

craftberry

Best for

mid-market and enterprise Shopify and Shopify Plus DTC brands, typically at $2M+ in annual revenue, 1,000+ orders a month and $10K+ a month in paid media.

Not the best fit if

you're under about 1,000 orders a month. craftberry says that below that level it focuses on qualitative research instead of splitting traffic.

craftberry has worked only with Shopify and Shopify Plus since 2015, across 800+ projects, and describes itself as a Shopify Premier Partner. Its CRO work is research-led, with every change validated through A/B testing on the store's own traffic. Intelligems is its A/B testing partner.

What stands out

  • One of the clearest guarantees on this list: if it hasn't delivered at least a 10% improvement in revenue per visitor 90 days after the first test, it keeps working at no additional cost until it does.
  • Retainers start at around $3,500 a month for research and 3 to 5 A/B tests, with development charged separately.
05

Shero Commerce

Best for

complex B2B and DTC brands on Shopify Plus that want development, CRO and marketing under one roof.

Not the best fit if

you want a CRO-only specialist rather than a full-service Shopify partner.

Shero Commerce is a Shopify Platinum tier partner headquartered in Red Hook, New York, with offices in Helsinki and Tirana. It says it has been testing and fixing ecommerce conversion since 2010, and its team is 65+ people. CRO sits alongside development, SEO, email and paid marketing.

What stands out

  • The highest Shopify Partner tier of any agency on this list.
  • A structured testing process: each test is defined with a hypothesis, the element being tested, the success metric and the minimum traffic needed. Shero gives 1,000 monthly visitors per variant as a workable minimum.
  • Strong migration and B2B experience, with published case studies across B2B and DTC brands.

Compare with ClickMint

06

SplitBase

Best for

premium DTC brands on Shopify at $10M+ in revenue, especially in fashion, skincare, beauty and lifestyle.

Not the best fit if

you're well under $10M in revenue.

SplitBase has been optimizing and redesigning sites for 8- and 9-figure brands since 2015. Its approach is research-first, built on what it calls the 3Ps: Patterns, Perception and Proof.

What stands out

  • Full-service CRO programs start at $8,500 a month.
  • Publishes detailed results, including a year-long supplement program that grew subscription take rate from 22% to 38%+.
  • Says all of its CRO clients onboarded in 2023, 2024 and 2025 saw results leading to a revenue increase within the first 90 days.
07

ConversionTeam

Best for

Shopify brands that want an audit-first testing program at a lower published entry price.

Not the best fit if

you'd rather your agency use a third-party testing tool you already pay for. Ask how that would work.

ConversionTeam has been running A/B testing programs since 2008. Every Shopify engagement starts with a CRO audit, and tests run on Nantu, its own free testing tool, so there's no testing-app subscription on top.

What stands out

  • From $2,500 a month, with the audit included.
  • 8,000+ A/B tests run, with a published 61.1% win rate across decisive tests.
  • A guarantee on its Iterate program: if winning tests haven't delivered a 30% conversion-rate improvement in your first 90 days of active testing, it keeps working free for up to 3 more months.
08

Invesp

Best for

ecommerce brands doing $1M+ that want a firm that does CRO and nothing else.

Not the best fit if

you're under $1M in revenue or under 30K monthly visitors. Invesp says CRO won't move the needle for you yet.

Invesp, headquartered in Chicago, has done CRO, and only CRO, since 2006. It says it has run 52,000+ A/B tests, and it pairs its team with CRO Catalyst, a platform that crawls 70,000+ sites for winning patterns.

What stands out

  • Pricing options: a performance program that ties its fee to your lift, or a flat fee from $10K a month for brands doing $6M+.
  • A Foundation Program for brands doing $1M–$6M, by application.
  • Works in most major testing tools, including VWO, Optimizely, AB Tasty and its own FigPii.
09

Spiralyze

Best for

larger brands that want a predictive, high-volume testing program with tools included.

Not the best fit if

a $25k/month flat fee is outside your budget and the performance model doesn't suit you.

Spiralyze, based in Atlanta, uses a prediction engine that it says draws on A/B tests run across 78,000 sites to choose what to test. It has a dedicated Shopify CRO service, and design, copy, development, QA and testing tools are all included in its fees.

What stands out

  • Three pricing models: a $25k/month flat fee (month-to-month), a performance model with fees tied 100% to test uplift, or a pilot.
  • Publishes a guarantee of results within 90 days.
  • Says its minimum recommended threshold for Shopify stores is 1,000 monthly visitors.
10

CRO Media

Best for

Shopify brands that want a productized, audit-first start before committing to a retainer.

Not the best fit if

you want a deep, research-heavy program with a dedicated senior team. Ask what the retainer includes for your traffic level.

CRO Media is a Shopify CRO agency focused on conversion rate, average order value and revenue per visitor. It says it has worked with Shopify for over 10 years and is a certified Shopify partner.

What stands out

  • Some of the most transparent productized pricing we found: a $2,899 Shopify CRO audit delivered within a week, and a $4,200-per-store monthly retainer.
  • The retainer bundles A/B testing and CRO with email, SEO and Shopify execution, and you can cancel anytime.

How to choose a Shopify CRO agency

Start with your numbers, not their logos. Most agencies here set a minimum, and they're honest about it: 30,000 sessions a month, 1,000 orders a month, $2M or $10M in revenue. If you're below an agency's floor, testing won't reach significance and you'll pay for noise.

Decide who does the work. Some agencies hand over research and recommendations. Others design, ship and roll out the tests. If you don't have developers and designers with spare time, pick the second kind.

Read the pricing model, not just the price. On this list you'll find flat retainers ($2,500 to $25k a month), performance-based pricing and guarantees measured on different metrics. A guarantee on conversion rate isn't the same as one on revenue per visitor. Ask exactly what's measured, over what window, and what happens if it's missed.

Ask what they measure. Conversion rate alone can mislead. Ask whether every test runs against a control, and whether they report revenue per visitor and order value alongside conversion rate.

Ask how fast the first test goes live. Timelines on this list run from hours to a couple of weeks. Every week before your first test is a week of paid traffic landing on an unchanged site.

Check what access they need. Some agencies work inside your theme and tools. Others need very little. Know what you're handing over before the kickoff call.

Questions to ask on the first call

  1. What's your minimum traffic or revenue, and how do you handle stores below it?
  2. Who designs and ships the tests: you or us?
  3. What's the main metric you report, and is every test measured against a control?
  4. How long from kickoff to the first live test?
  5. What does it cost, what's included, and what's billed separately?
  6. If there's a guarantee, what exactly is measured, and over what window?

FAQ

What does a Shopify CRO agency do?

A Shopify CRO agency finds where shoppers drop off, tests changes against a control, and rolls out the ones that win. The better ones also design and ship the tests and report on revenue, not just conversion rate.

How much does a Shopify CRO agency cost?

Among the agencies on this list that publish prices, ongoing programs start between $2,500 and $25,000 a month. For a one-off audit, CRO Media publishes a price of $2,899. Some agencies, ClickMint included, offer performance-based pricing instead of, or alongside, a flat retainer.

How much traffic do I need to work with a CRO agency?

It depends on the agency. Published minimums on this list include 1,000 monthly visitors (Spiralyze), 30,000 sessions a month (Blend Commerce) and around 1,000 orders a month (craftberry). Below those levels, many agencies recommend research and direct fixes instead of A/B tests.

Do I need Shopify Plus to work with a CRO agency?

No. Storefront pages like home, collection, product and cart pages can be tested on any Shopify plan. Shopify Plus adds checkout options, such as Checkout Extensibility, that agencies like Netalico use to test checkout experiences.

How long does it take to see results from a Shopify CRO agency?

It varies by agency and traffic. ConversionTeam, for example, says the first test usually goes live in week 2 with a first read on results in weeks 4 to 6. ClickMint's typical time from issue to live test is about 3 hours. Results then depend on how much traffic each test gets.

What's the difference between a CRO agency and a Shopify development agency?

A development agency builds and maintains your store. A CRO agency decides what to change and proves it works with tests before it's rolled out. Some agencies on this list, such as Shero Commerce, do both.

Why is ClickMint ranked #1 on this list?

ClickMint wrote this list, so we put ourselves first, and we say so at the top. We think we're the best fit for DTC brands doing $200k+ a month in sales with $15k+ a month in ad spend that want testing done for them, quickly, with performance-based pricing. If that isn't you, another agency here may fit better.
