Hi @Sibai 

It sounds like you have a great idea there, and it is encouraging to see your enthusiasm on this idea. Generally if you are developing an app for Shopify, we can help by providing you with some useful resources about app creation, and point you towards the various API documents & tutorials to get you started. You mentioned that you would like to speak to a developer, so I gather you might not want to undergo this project yourself, and instead consult with an app developer and have them assist in the technical end of things? For that we would recommend consulting with a Shopify Expert - they are freelance & agency developers who can help with a variety of things including custom app development and integration expertise.

If you are interested in learning more about creating an app yourself, then you can check out the below resources which should steer you in the right direction to get started:

• About the Shopify Partner Program
• Partner Guide on Making Apps
• Developer Documentation on Building Apps

If you needed some guidance after reading our documentation, and wanted to chat to other developers in the community then we also have our Shopify APIs and SDKs section of the Community Forums. Once the app is created, do you have any thoughts on how you would like to handle the marketing side of things? We actually have a handy blog post about Marketing an App that gives some tips for how to make the app launch successful. 

Will you be hoping to launch your store & app integration before BFCM?
