Agency in London.

Web design, Shopify Plus, mobile apps, and brand identity for London fintech, creative tech, luxury hospitality, fashion, and DTC brands. GMT / BST with on-site discovery in Shoreditch, the City, and Soho.

Fintech + fashion. Editorial bar.

London brands ship to the most design-literate audiences in the world. Four distinct scenes shape each brief.

The City and Canary Wharf host a global fintech cluster: FCA-regulated banks, neobanks, payment infrastructure, and hedge funds. Shoreditch and Old Street drive creative tech, AdTech, and design-led SaaS. Mayfair and the West End power luxury hospitality and fashion. Soho and Camden anchor media and creator-economy brands.

UK GDPR is the baseline for all London work. Shopify Markets handles GBP, EUR, and USD currency for brands selling into the UK and EU. We cover GMT / BST with on-site discovery across Shoreditch, the City, Soho, Mayfair, Hackney, and King's Cross.

GMT / BST. Full-day overlap with our London office.

You get full working-day overlap with our London satellite office on GMT / BST. Our staffed HQs are New York and Delhi. Our London team covers UK hours Monday through Friday, with Delhi extending the collaboration window. The clock below shows your daily overlap with ours.

§ FAQ · questions

Six answers for London founders.

Do you have an office in London?

Yes. Digital Heroes runs a satellite office in London, with staffed HQs in New York and Delhi and additional satellite offices in Sydney and Lucknow. We work with London brands on GMT / BST hours, Monday through Friday, with same-day Slack response.

Do you build for FCA-regulated fintech founders in London?

Yes, with clear boundaries. We build for FCA-regulated fintech, neobanks, payments, and InsurTech. We ship Next.js and Vercel marketing sites, custom platforms with Postgres and Prisma backends, and SOC 2 and UK GDPR deployment configurations. We handle PII and PCI carefully, integrate Stripe and GoCardless for payments, and support Open Banking.

We don't handle FCA regulatory submissions (that's your compliance team's domain), but we ship clean engineering they can audit confidently.

Do you handle UK GDPR compliance on London sites?

Yes. UK GDPR is the baseline for all London work. We ship cookie consent flows that meet ICO guidance, handle PII carefully, support data-subject requests and breach notifications, and write Privacy Notices that match your actual data architecture.

For brands selling into both UK and EU, we coordinate dual UK GDPR and EU GDPR compliance, often via Shopify Markets for storefront localization.

What kinds of London brands do you typically work with?

We work best with operator-led brands doing $50K plus monthly revenue across fintech, creative tech, luxury hospitality, fashion, and creator DTC. You need a real growth roadmap and a named operator we can talk to weekly.

We're wrong for pre-revenue concepts without product-market fit. We'll tell you that on the discovery call.

Can we meet in person in London?

Yes. Discovery happens on-site: your office, ours, or neutral spaces like Second Home Spitalfields, Soho House working clubs, Huckletree Shoreditch, or King's Cross coworking. Week-to-week work happens via weekly recorded demos and Slack on UK time. Quarterly in-person retainer reviews keep momentum.

For Shopify Plus or custom builds, we include a launch-week trip and a 60-day post-launch review trip in scope. Travel sits inside the project budget, not as a surprise later. We avoid launching during Boxing Day sales and summer sales week because logistics shift.

How quickly can you scope a London project?

A 30-minute discovery call gets booked within a week of first contact. We return a written scope and fixed price within 48 hours of that call.

For Shopify Plus replatforms or custom builds, we add a 5-7 business day technical discovery phase before the quote becomes binding. Migration data models and integration surfaces drive timelines more than visible design.
