What an ecommerce website really costs in Bangladesh, with no padded quote
Most people asking about ecommerce website design cost in BD just want a straight number, not a 'depends, inbox us' runaround. Here it is: stores start at 50,000 BDT, the common tiers are 50,000 / 90,000 / 1,50,000 BDT, and fully custom builds begin from 3,00,000 BDT. One senior developer sets that price, builds the store, and stands behind it.
Around 5 years pricing and shipping sites solo. The number I quote is the number you pay, with 50% to start, 50% on launch, and a design-approval guarantee before that final taka changes hands.

Ask three people in Bangladesh what an ecommerce website costs and you'll get three wildly different answers, from 15,000 BDT off a Facebook page to 5 lakh from an agency that hasn't seen your products yet. The reason isn't that the work is mysterious. It's that the cheap end skips the parts that make a store actually sell, and the expensive end pads the quote with account managers, juniors and a sales team you're paying for. My pricing for ecommerce website design starts at 50,000 BDT because that's the honest floor for a store that loads fast, takes bKash and Nagad, and handles cash-on-delivery properly, not a template with a buy button stuck on it.
The price of an ecommerce store moves with a handful of real things, and I'll tell you which ones before you commit. How many products you're selling and whether they have variants like size and colour. Which payments you need wired in, bKash, Nagad, card, or all of them. Whether cash-on-delivery has to feed straight into Pathao, Steadfast or RedX. How custom the design is versus a clean, proven layout. And whether you're starting fresh or migrating an existing catalogue and old orders. None of those are upsells I invent on the call. They're the actual cost drivers, and you'll see exactly which tier you land in and why.
Here's what the cost is not: it isn't a deposit that balloons halfway through with 'extra charges' you never agreed to. The terms are fixed before we start, 50% advance to begin and 50% on launch, and you approve the design before that final payment is due. If the store doesn't look like what we agreed, you don't pay the balance. That's the design-approval guarantee, and it exists precisely because so many Bangladeshi business owners have paid an advance and then watched the project drift or vanish.
And you're not paying for a layer of people. When you hire me, the person quoting the price is the person designing the store, writing the code, setting up the payment gateway and handing it over. No agency overhead baked into your invoice, no junior learning on your launch budget. That's the whole reason a solo senior operator can quote 50,000 BDT for real ecommerce work that an agency would mark up to two or three times that for the same result.
These are the six things that move the price up or down. Read them before any quote, so you know what you're paying for and what you're not.
Ten products and three hundred products are different jobs. A small starter catalogue sits at the 50,000 BDT end; large catalogues with size, colour and stock variants push you into the higher tiers because there's genuinely more to build and organise.
bKash and Nagad checkout plus cash-on-delivery is included from the base. Adding card payment, multiple gateways or split-payment logic adds setup work, and that's where part of the price difference between tiers actually comes from.
Plain COD capture is cheaper than a store that feeds orders straight into Pathao, Steadfast or RedX with address and weight ready to ship. If you do real volume, that integration is worth the cost; if you don't, you won't be charged for it.
A clean, conversion-tested layout keeps you near the floor price. Fully custom design, bespoke product pages and a unique brand look move you toward the 1,50,000 BDT tier or, for ground-up builds, the 3,00,000 BDT custom range.
Starting fresh is straightforward. Moving an existing store, hundreds of products, photos and old order history off another platform takes real hours, so it sits higher. I'll tell you upfront whether your case needs it.
Whatever tier you land in, the deal is the same: 50% advance, 50% on launch, design approved before the final payment. The quoted number is the number, no surprise invoices appearing mid-build.
If your budget is the 50,000 BDT floor, you are not getting a stripped 'cheap' store, you're getting a real one for a focused catalogue. At that tier I'll build you a mobile-first store that loads fast on a mid-range Android, with bKash and Nagad checkout, cash-on-delivery, clean product pages and an admin panel you can run from your phone. For a seller with a tight product range who's mostly driving traffic from Facebook ads, that's often everything needed to start taking orders. Spending more than you need is just another way of overpaying, and I'll say so if a higher tier wouldn't earn its cost for you.
You move up the tiers when the business genuinely demands it, not because a salesperson talked you into it. A few hundred SKUs with variants, multiple payment gateways, automatic courier handoff to Pathao or Steadfast, or a fully custom brand experience, those are real reasons to sit at 90,000 or 1,50,000 BDT, and a ground-up custom platform with unusual logic is where the 3,00,000 BDT range starts.
The point of pricing ecommerce website design this way is that you pay for the store your business actually is, today, with room to grow, rather than a guessed number that's either too thin to sell or padded to pay for an agency you'll never meet. Tell me your products, your payments and your volume, and I'll tell you the real cost, in writing, before a single taka moves.

The questions sellers actually ask me when they're trying to pin down what an ecommerce store will cost in Bangladesh.
Ecommerce stores start at 50,000 BDT. The common tiers are 50,000 / 90,000 / 1,50,000 BDT depending on product count, payment and courier setup, and how custom the design is. Fully custom builds start from 3,00,000 BDT. You'll see which tier you land in and why before you commit, with 50% advance to start and 50% on launch.
A 15,000 BDT store is usually a template with a buy button, no real bKash/Nagad setup, no proper cash-on-delivery, and pages too heavy to load on mobile data. It looks like a shop but doesn't sell like one. My 50,000 BDT floor is for a store that actually takes orders and that you can run yourself. Cheaper almost always means you pay again later to fix it.
Five things, honestly: how many products and variants you have, which payments you need beyond bKash/Nagad and COD, whether orders feed straight into couriers like Pathao or Steadfast, how custom the design is, and whether you're migrating an existing catalogue. I'll tell you which of these apply to you before quoting, so the tier makes sense.
No. The quote is fixed before we start. Terms are 50% advance and 50% on launch, and you approve the design before that final payment is due. There are no surprise mid-build invoices. Separate from the build, you'll pay your own domain and hosting renewals directly to those providers, and I'll tell you roughly what those run so nothing is a surprise.
Yes, those are included from the base 50,000 BDT tier, because in Bangladesh a store without them barely sells. Card payment, multiple gateways or automatic courier integration are the things that can push you into a higher tier, and only if you actually need them. You won't pay for setup your store doesn't use.
Yes, and for many sellers that's the smart move. Launch a focused store near the floor price, start taking orders, then add more products, extra payment options or courier integration as the business earns it. I build so the store can grow, so you're not paying upfront for capacity you don't need yet.
