We became a Shopify Premier Partner

We’ve become a Shopify Premier Partner, the only one based in Czechia or Slovakia, joining just 68 other Premier partners across Europe. Here’s what the new status means for our clients.

In January 2025, when we became a Shopify Plus Partner, we wrote that our next goal was to reach Premier. Today, we are happy to share that we’ve made it. Digismoothie is officially a Shopify Premier Partner, and our new status is already visible in the Shopify Partners Directory.

We are currently the only Shopify Premier Partner based in Czechia or Slovakia. Across Europe, just 68 other partners hold the same status.

What does Premier status mean?

Premier is the second-highest of Shopify’s five Service Partner tiers, above Plus and below Platinum. It recognizes partners working with larger and more complex merchant businesses.

Partner tier	New referral revenue	OR existing revenue	AND new merchants
Registered	No minimum	No minimum	Starting tier
Select	≥ $100,000	≥ $500,000	1 Plus/Enterprise or 10 Standard
Plus	≥ $500,000	≥ $2,500,000	2 Plus/Enterprise or 40 Standard
Premier	≥ $2,000,000	≥ $10,000,000	4 Plus/Enterprise
Platinum	≥ $5,000,000	≥ $25,000,000	6 Plus/Enterprise

Shopify updates tiers quarterly. Requirements checked on October 1, 2026. Source: Shopify Service Partner Program Requirements.

Shopify reviews partner tiers quarterly based on commercial impact. Under the current requirements, Premier partners must meet revenue contribution thresholds and bring at least four new Shopify Plus or Enterprise merchants to the platform within the past two years.

What it means for our clients

Premier status includes a Partner Success Manager and priority access to Shopify teams. This gives us more direct channels when a project needs Shopify’s input, whether we are planning a migration, building a new store, or developing an existing one.

One of the main projects we worked in 2026 – Dedoles.

We are proud of this milestone and grateful to the clients who trust us with their businesses, our team doing the work every day, and our partners at Shopify.

You can explore some of the projects behind this progress in our case studies. If you are planning your next step on Shopify, get in touch.
