BuyWander

Custom web design & Shopify Plus development for an auction platform.

BuyWander sells inspected retail returns at a discount—saving customers money and reducing waste. Their original website was slow and confusing, not built for growth. PixelMakers was engaged to deliver speed and performance improvements.

Internal Tools & Dashboards

Designed and developed a dashboard for real-time auction data, sales insights, and admin features.

Iteration & Scaling

Transitioned to Nuxt + Sanity + Shopify Plus for enhanced performance.

The challenge

From clunky theme to custom headless storefront — Their website wasn't pulling its weight. Slow. Confusing. Not built for growth. They needed speed and scalability.

The results

Over $2M raised since launch. Faster site increased engagement and conversions. Internal dashboard saved hours per week. Multiple rebuilds delivered in record time.
