What does an online store really cost to build in Dhaka? Here is the honest breakdown, in BDT, with no padded line items.
I am RH Fardin, a solo senior website designer and developer, and I build stores for Dhaka sellers. Every quote I give is shaped by four things. Your product count, your payment mix (bKash, Nagad, card, COD), your delivery rules and how much custom design you need. The online store development price in Dhaka starts at 50,000 BDT with me, and it scales openly from there.
Five years of building stores for Dhaka sellers. One builder, one quote, one invoice. Fifty percent advance, fifty percent on launch.

Ask three agencies "online store koto taka?" and you get three wildly different numbers. That is why the online store development price in Dhaka feels like a mystery. Usually there is no breakdown. One quotes 25,000 BDT and quietly skips the bKash gateway, the mobile layout and SSL. Another quotes 4 lakh because they assume every store needs a custom dashboard.
Most refuse to publish prices at all. That is not because pricing is mysterious. It is because vague pricing protects their margin.
I work the other way. When you ask me about price, I tell you the floor on the call: 50,000 BDT. I tell you what fits in each tier. And I tell you exactly which line items push your number up or down. Say your catalogue is 30 SKUs with bKash plus COD. Then you sit at the entry tier.
Say you sell across 8 categories with size variants, wholesale pricing and a courier API. Then you are in the mid or upper tier. Nothing is hidden and nothing is inflated.
I have spent close to five years designing and building ecommerce sites across Dhaka. My clients include clothing brands, electronics resellers, home decor sellers and food businesses. Across all of them, one lesson holds. Three things decide the price of an online store: the catalogue logic, the payment and delivery setup, and how much custom design you need. The look of an agency's office in Gulshan has nothing to do with it.
I am the only person who touches your project. There is no reseller markup, no junior designer learning on your money and no "project manager" forwarding your messages. You message me, I build, I ship. That is one of the main reasons my pricing stays clean.
Here are six things that come standard at every price point. They help you compare apples to apples when you look at other Dhaka quotes.
Quotes are in Bangladeshi taka, broken down line by line. The number on the proposal is the number on the invoice.
Every store I build supports bKash, Nagad, card payments through SSLCOMMERZ or Aamarpay, and cash on delivery from day one. There is no extra setup fee for this.
You see and approve the homepage and product page design before a single line of production code. If the design is not right, we keep improving it until it is.
More than 80 percent of Dhaka shoppers reach your store from a phone. So every store is designed for the 360px screen first, then scaled up to desktop.
I set up delivery charges for inside and outside Dhaka, advance payment for COD orders and area-based pickup slots. It all matches how you really run the business.
You pay fifty percent in advance to start. The other fifty percent comes only when the store is live and you can take real orders. No milestone games.
The 50,000 BDT entry tier suits a starter store with up to about 50 products. You get a clean Shopify or WooCommerce build and the standard Bangladesh payment stack: bKash, Nagad and COD. You get basic order alerts too. The homepage, collection and product templates look custom, but they use a strong base theme.
The 90,000 BDT tier is where most Dhaka brands really sit. It covers 100 to 300 products, with variants such as size and colour. It adds a more custom homepage, a blog and SEO setup, an abandoned cart flow and proper analytics. The 1,50,000 BDT tier adds truly custom design across many page types and a wholesale or B2B price tier. It also brings deeper courier API work, customer accounts with wishlist and reorder, and product pages built to sell.
Custom builds from 3,00,000 BDT cover stores that need things the platform does not do by default. Examples are a configurator for made-to-order products, multi-vendor logic, or a custom inventory dashboard that pulls from your current ERP. Marketplace-style seller onboarding fits here too.
What pushes a project up the tiers is almost never "design". It is the number of moving parts behind each order. How many payment methods, couriers, product variants and user types? How much reporting? Tell me those five things and I can give you a tight price on the first call, in BDT. You will not hear "we will send you a proposal next week".

The questions Dhaka shop owners actually ask me about online store pricing.
It starts at 50,000 BDT for a clean entry store with up to about 50 products, bKash, Nagad and COD. The mid tier is about 90,000 BDT. Larger stores with a custom feel are 1,50,000 BDT, and fully custom builds start from 3,00,000 BDT. I can give a firm number on a 20-minute call once I know your product count, payment mix and delivery rules.
Usually they install a free theme and skip the local payment gateway setup. They leave the mobile design half-finished and treat support as out of scope. Once you ask for bKash, courier logic and a real product page design, the same vendors raise the price. My 50,000 BDT floor reflects what a real launch-ready store costs in 2026.
Yes. Every tier includes setup of bKash, Nagad, card payments through SSLCOMMERZ or Aamarpay, and cash on delivery. You pay the gateway providers their own merchant fees directly. But the setup work is part of your store price, not an extra.
A few things sit outside the price. Domain registration, hosting renewals, product photos and product description writing. The payment gateway merchant fees themselves. Paid plugin or app subscriptions, if your store needs them, and ongoing monthly maintenance. I quote all of these separately and honestly before you commit.
The entry tier (50,000 BDT) usually ships in 2 to 3 weeks. The mid tier (90,000 BDT) takes 4 to 6 weeks. The 1,50,000 BDT tier takes 6 to 10 weeks. Custom builds from 3,00,000 BDT depend on the scope, and usually take 2 to 4 months. The biggest factor is how fast you approve designs and send product data.
Fifty percent in advance to start and fifty percent on launch day. I accept bKash, Nagad, bank transfer in BDT and international wire if needed. You get a proper invoice for both halves, so the spend is clean for your accounts.
