RentBase is a Shopify app I designed and developed to help merchants manage rental and booking workflows directly inside their store.
The app handles complex rental logic such as availability, rental duration, daily and hourly pricing, scheduling rules, buffers, return dates, booking limits, product-specific settings, and checkout integration.
I built the product end-to-end, including the merchant admin experience, storefront booking flow, Shopify integrations, backend logic, and ongoing production support.
A major focus of the project was flexibility: merchants can configure rental behavior globally or per product without changing their existing Shopify store structure.
Key features include:
Rental and booking management
Availability and date selection
Daily and hourly pricing
Custom rental packages
Buffer times before and after rentals
Same-day rentals
Product-level and global configuration
Multi-item rental cart flows
Shopify checkout integration
Theme integration and storefront customization
Merchant-facing admin dashboard
RentBase is currently used by real Shopify merchants, and I continue to develop new features, improve the UX, and solve real-world rental and booking requirements based on merchant feedback.

I’m currently working on a modern e-commerce website for a fashion company. The project focuses on creating a visually appealing and responsive online store where customers can easily browse products, view product details, and enjoy a smooth shopping experience. I’m also working on the overall user experience, clean interface, product presentation, and essential e-commerce functionality to help the brand establish a strong online presence.
Shopify quietly changed how it counts a session this week, and if your conversion rate looks different starting September 21, this is why.
The rollout runs September 21 to 23. Three things changed under the hood. Sessions used to end automatically at midnight UTC, so a shopper browsing late at night got counted as two sessions. Now a session only ends after 30 minutes of inactivity, so that same visit counts as one. Second, a shopper who lands straight on checkout from a cart link, with no pageview at all, now counts as a session where before it didn't. Third, identified bot traffic is filtered out of session reports by default.
None of this means your store actually changed. Sessions, conversion rate, add to cart rate, checkout rate and bounce rate can all move in either direction depending on which of the three effects dominates for your traffic mix. Less bot noise pushes conversion rate up, more counted no pageview sessions pushes it down.
Five minute check before you react to a number. Pull your orders and sales for the same period. If those are flat but conversion rate jumped or dropped this week, it is the measurement change, not your store. Compare like for like only after September 23, once the rollout has finished on your account.
