The platforms and people we work with.
Our platform expertise
We work with these platforms at a depth most agencies cannot match — because we have spent years building production systems on each of them.
Shopify
Product listings, PDPs, CMS and blog layer for headless builds. The backbone of the Sons frontend.
Stripe
Subscription billing, one-off payments and multi-market payment processing. Sons has one of the deepest Stripe Subscriptions integrations on the market.
Magento / Adobe Commerce
Magento 2 and Adobe Commerce development for enterprise and mid-market merchants requiring the deepest customisation.
OpenMage LTS
Community-maintained Magento 1 continuation. The pragmatic choice when a full Magento 2 migration is not the right move.
Symfony / PHP
The backend framework powering our bespoke platform builds — including the Sons API platform handling subscription, clinical and pharmacy logic.
Next.js / React
Headless frontend framework for fast, conversion-optimised storefronts. The Sons checkout is built entirely in Next.js.
Who we build with
We work alongside carefully chosen agencies — as their white-label development partner, or openly on joint engagements.
Tickled Chilli
tickledchilli.co.ukOne of our longest-standing and most significant agency partners. Tickled Chilli is a creative and digital agency with whom we collaborate extensively — both on a white-label basis and openly as a named technical partner. BigHat provides the eCommerce development layer for their client work, including shared delivery on the Sons project.
