What a night! creativestyle dominated the stage at the Shop Usability Awards 2026, bringing home four major honors and kicking off our anniversary year with incredible momentum. Two of our premier customer projects were recognized for excellence: the benuta online shop won "Best Customer Experience," while Bergzeit secured "Best Mobile Experience"—and was crowned the Overall Winner of the entire competition. The ultimate highlight? creativestyle was named "Agency of the Year."

Engineering Experiences That Resonate

The award-winning projects are a masterclass in modern e-commerce: user-centric, inspiring, and technically flawless.

25 Years of Excellence: Agency of the Year

These awards arrive at a truly special moment. On March 13, 2026, creativestyle celebrates its 25th anniversary.

Being named "Agency of the Year" is more than just a trophy; it is a validation of our evolution since 2001. For a quarter-century, we have been building commerce platforms that bridge the gap between brand, content, and technology. Our mission has always been to create digital experiences that don’t just work—they inspire.

“Our goal is to develop online shops that provide real guidance and inspiration,” says founder Jaromir Fojcik. “To have our projects recognized and to be named ‘Agency of the Year’ in our anniversary year is a profound honor for the entire team.”


A Strong Signal for the Future of E-Commerce

The Shop Usability Award remains the most prestigious benchmark in German-speaking e-commerce. It honors shops that lead with clear user guidance, emotive content and a deep understanding of their audience.

This year’s results prove once again that successful e-commerce happens at the intersection of technology, design, and human needs. It was an evening that perfectly illustrated what truly matters in digital commerce today.
