How Much Does It Cost to Create a Web Shop?

Why Is It Hard to Give a Single Figure

An online store is not a single product—the price depends on whether you sell 20 or 2000 items, whether you need integration with accounting, and how many payment and delivery options you offer. Therefore, offers "starting from 150 EUR" usually cover only a basic template without the customizations you actually need for proper operation.

What Most Affects the Price

• Number of products and whether you enter them manually or import from a spreadsheet
• Number and type of integrations—payment, delivery, accounting system
• Whether the design is customized for your brand or a ready-made template is used
• Whether you need multiple languages or currencies

How We Approach Web Shops

For smaller catalogs (up to a hundred products), the Standard package (400 EUR) is usually sufficient—a site with up to 5 pages with basic sales logic. For larger catalogs with a blog, SEO texts, and more advanced needs, a special arrangement above the Pro package is made, as the volume really varies from client to client.

Platform: Ready Solution vs Custom

For most small and medium shops, we recommend ready-made platforms (e.g., WooCommerce)—they start up faster and are easier to maintain. A custom solution makes sense only when you have specific business processes that a ready-made platform does not cover.

Hidden Costs to Watch Out For

Payment system fees, monthly subscriptions for the platform (for some solutions), and the cost of entering a large number of products—these are items that can easily be forgotten in the initial offer, but they have a real impact on the total budget for the first year.
