Lady Gaga’s on Shopify: Go Behind the Build


Listen Later

Lady Gaga has a new Shopify site. But this isn’t just a merch store. It’s a stage, a story, a digital home—built to evolve as fast as she does.

Her team needed something different. A site that could change overnight and feel as immersive as her albums. So they went headless, partnering with Commerce-UI, a Shopify agency known for pushing boundaries.

In this episode, Shopify Partner Michal Klim takes us inside the build:

  • How Hydrogen and Oxygen power a site that never stands still.
  • Why merch sales weren’t the top priority—and what was.
  • Why a “conversion-first” mindset wouldn’t work here—and what did.

It’s a story about what happens when a global superstar takes Shopify beyond ecommerce best practices.
