What one flat fee removes
Buying a block of hours puts the risk on you: overages when things break, wasted budget when they don’t. A fixed monthly fee with defined services removes that risk.
Pick your band
One flat fee per month. Every band covers the platform basics; higher bands add speed, capacity, and strategic depth.
Monthly fee per store. We confirm final scope after a short technical review. Infrastructure and hosting are out of scope.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers on scope, pricing, and switching. Ask us directly →
What are eCommerce managed services?
eCommerce managed services are ongoing support, maintenance, and improvements delivered by an external team for a recurring fee. Atwix offers fixed-fee plans for Adobe Commerce, Shopware, and Shopify, covering everything from monitoring and security scanning to maintenance, optimization, and development, depending on your plan. Each plan has a defined scope, with flexibility to prioritize work as your business needs change.
What does the fixed monthly fee include?
Each band defines its own scope. Guard covers monitoring, security scanning, and alert triage through the Sirius, Axion, and Coretrace tooling. Govern adds autonomous bugfixes, patches, minor upgrades, a month-1 audit, and a 4-business-hour P1 SLA. Grow adds a named team, one major upgrade per contract year, a 1-hour P1 SLA, and monthly optimization work. The fee stays the same each month regardless of how much support the month required.
How is this different from buying a block of hours?
Hour blocks expire, run over, and need re-scoping when priorities change. A fixed fee removes all three problems: you get defined services, you can re-prioritize within your band at any time, and the invoice stays constant. Larger initiatives such as major upgrades or new features are quoted upfront as fixed-price work, so there are no surprises there either.
Which platforms do you cover?
Adobe Commerce (including Magento Open Source), Shopware, and Shopify. Atwix holds Adobe Gold Solution Partner, Shopware Platinum Partner, and Shopify Plus Partner statuses, with 300+ eCommerce certifications behind our team.
What is the contract buyout offer?
Companies committed to another managed services provider may receive a credit toward their remaining contract costs when they move to Atwix, subject to agreed terms and limits. Raise it on your first call and we will confirm eligibility.
How fast can we start?
Engagements start with a short technical review of your platform, then onboarding onto your band. Timelines depend on platform complexity; we give you a specific start date after the review.
