Every week someone asks me about ecommerce website development cost in Dhaka on WhatsApp. They start with one line: "bhai, ekta ecommerce site banate koto taka lagbe?" Most places give one of two answers. Some are oddly cheap, like 15,000 BDT with no payment gateway and no real product structure. Others are wildly inflated, like 8 lakh for a Shopify install with a stock theme. Neither matches what Dhaka sellers need to start taking orders. This page gives you the real numbers.
I am RH Fardin, a solo website designer and developer. I have spent about five years building sites for businesses across Dhaka. They range from Dhanmondi boutiques to Mirpur electronics resellers to Gulshan F-commerce pages moving up to a proper website. I design and code every store myself. There is no junior handover and no "project manager" middleman inflating your invoice. When you pay me for an ecommerce build, you pay for the hours I spend on your store, not an office in Banani.
An ecommerce site in Dhaka costs more than a brochure site, because there is real plumbing involved. There is bKash Personal or Merchant setup, Nagad payment and the SSLCOMMERZ gateway. Cash on delivery needs proper order checks. Dhaka cancellation rates are brutal if you skip the OTP call step. Pathao or RedX delivery zones need different charges inside and outside Dhaka. The product catalogue needs Bangla and English fields. Your team needs an order dashboard it can run from a phone in the shop.
My pricing floor for any project is 50,000 BDT. For ecommerce, that floor gets you a starter store: a small catalogue, a manual order flow and one payment gateway. A serious Dhaka online store sits in the 90,000 to 1,50,000 BDT range. That covers multiple gateways, full delivery setup, customer accounts and a clean admin panel.
Custom ecommerce platforms with inventory sync, vendor logins or POS links start from 3,00,000 BDT. Everything is 50% advance and 50% on launch. You do not pay the final 50% until you have approved the design yourself.
Each tier matches a real type of Dhaka seller. Pick the one that fits where you are right now. You can always add modules later without rebuilding from scratch.
Up to 30 products, bKash Personal or Merchant checkout, and COD with manual confirmation. Pathao charge slabs are fixed for Dhaka and outside, with Bangla and English product fields. Right for boutiques and home-baked food sellers moving off Facebook.
Up to 200 products with variants. bKash, Nagad and SSLCOMMERZ for cards. Customer accounts, abandoned cart recovery by SMS, and the Pathao API for live delivery charges. The admin dashboard works on a mid-range Samsung phone.
Unlimited products. Multiple gateways, including bKash Merchant, Nagad, Rocket and cards. Full Pathao, RedX and Sundarban API links. A coupon engine, stock alerts and a return and refund flow. GA4 and Meta Pixel events tied to real revenue.
Custom architecture for marketplaces, B2B portals, subscription boxes, or stores with offline POS sync. It includes vendor onboarding, role-based admin, and a deployment plan that will not fall over during Eid spikes.
Half when you sign the scope, half on launch. No "discovery fee", no "design revision charge" and no upsell mid-project. If a feature is not in the written scope, I tell you the cost in writing before I build it.
You see and approve the homepage, product page and checkout designs before I write any production code. If the design direction is wrong, we redo it before development starts, not after, when changes get costly.
The ecommerce website development cost in Dhaka swings on five real drivers. It does not hinge on "design complexity" or how fancy the homepage looks. First, payment gateways. A bKash Personal number is free but limits you. bKash Merchant API and SSLCOMMERZ both need business papers, gateway fees and setup work that adds real hours.
Second, delivery. Fixed Pathao slab charges are cheap. A live Pathao or RedX API link is a separate module. It works out real-time charges by area, weight, and COD or prepaid. Third, the product catalogue. A 25-SKU sari shop is not the same project as a 2,000-SKU electronics store with variants, attributes and filtered search.
Fourth, order operations. COD-heavy Dhaka stores need an OTP confirmation step, or courier returns will eat your margin. Order status SMS, automatic invoices, and a phone-friendly admin panel for shop staff all add scope. Fifth, life after launch. A 50,000 BDT store gives you a working site. But some extras separate a site that survives from one that quietly bleeds orders.
Those extras are speed tuning for 2G and 3G areas of Dhaka and schema markup for Google product results. They also include Meta Pixel and GA4 conversion tracking, and a proper backup setup. I quote each of these as a named line item. You decide what to include now and what to add in phase two. There are no mystery numbers.

The questions Dhaka business owners actually ask me before they pay the advance.
Starter ecommerce site shuru hoy 50,000 BDT theke. That gets a small catalogue, bKash and COD, and Pathao charge slabs. A serious store with multiple gateways, customer accounts and a live delivery API costs 90,000 to 1,50,000 BDT. A custom marketplace or B2B portal starts at 3,00,000 BDT theke. Everything is fixed price once I see your product list and order flow.
Because you are buying a working sales system, not a brochure. It needs payment gateways, a delivery API, order checks, customer accounts, an admin dashboard and stock logic. It also needs GA4 and Pixel events tied to revenue. None of that exists on a 5-page company site. Even the cheapest ecommerce tier takes 4 to 6 times the engineering time of a basic information website.
Yes, but only if your scope matches. The 50,000 BDT tier is for sellers with under 30 products and one payment gateway, bKash Personal or Merchant. It has COD with manual confirmation and a fixed delivery charge by zone. If you need several gateways, a live courier API, or 200+ products, you are in the 90,000 to 1,50,000 BDT range. I will not undersell you a site that cannot handle your real orders.
The setup work is included from the 90,000 BDT tier upward. What is not included is bKash and Nagad's own merchant onboarding. You open those accounts with them as the business owner, and they take a percentage per transaction. I will give you the list of papers and walk you through the application. The gateway accounts are in your name, not mine.
Hosting and domain run about 8,000 to 18,000 BDT per year, based on traffic and store size. bKash, Nagad and SSLCOMMERZ charge gateway fees per transaction, usually 1.5 to 2.5%. I do not charge a monthly "maintenance" fee unless you want one. Most clients prefer to call me for changes and pay by the hour. For a stable store, that is cheaper.
Yes. That is exactly how I price the tiers. Start at 50,000 BDT with bKash and COD. Ship the store and take real orders. Then add SSLCOMMERZ, the Pathao API and customer accounts in phase two, once you know which features really move revenue. I build the codebase so phase two additions do not need a rebuild. It is the most honest way to spend money on an online store in Dhaka.
