Includes device-model attribute set, MFi cert badges, layered nav, Apple-keynote-sync cron, MagSafe/Qi2 filters, basic subscription wiring, marketplace channel manager setup. Custom-design configurator (Casetify-style) is +$8k, $15k. Full multi-region (EU + US + UK + AU with MSI) is +$10k, $25k.
• Custom / enterprise: Quoted in 24h, multi-week engagement. Full Casetify-class configurator + AR preview + 6-region MSI + B2B Apple-Authorised-Reseller portal + 5 marketplace integrations. $50k, $150k+ depending on scope.
• Hosting: $400, $1,500/mo on Cloudways / dedicated. Over-provision for Apple keynote spike (4-8x base). CDN (Cloudflare / Akamai) mandatory.
