You have probably heard quotes for the "same thing" from 8,000 taka to two and a half lakh. Here is the honest online store development price in Sylhet: fixed tiers from 50,000 BDT. I show what each tier builds and what really moves the number. I am RH Fardin, one senior solo developer. I design, write and ship the whole store myself, with no agency, juniors or salesman padding the figure. You pay 50% advance and 50% on launch, and approve the full design before any code.
The floor is 50,000 BDT. Tiers are 50,000, 90,000 and 1,50,000 BDT, with custom from 3,00,000. Fixed quote, with no hidden line items. One senior operator with about 5 years building Bangladeshi online stores. Full design approved before a single line of code.

No two quotes match in this city because almost nobody is quoting the same job. That is why the online store development price in Sylhet seems so random. A boy with a laptop near Zindabazar point says 8,000 taka and shows you a slider, a product grid and a buy button on a free theme. A Dhaka agency hears "online store" and floats two lakh or more. Often that is the same template with a monthly retainer stapled on.
Both are quoting what you can see, which is the homepage, and neither is quoting what a store really is. That is the part you cannot see: the code that closes a sale on bKash, and a COD flow that does not lie about who paid. It is also an order dashboard your staff can run without phoning the developer every week. So before you compare two prices, check that they price the same machine. I will tell you what each tier buys and what pushes the number up.
Almost every Sylhet seller opens with the same question: online shop banate koto taka? It is a fair question, and it deserves a fair number, not "depends, bhai." On a real store, very little of the cost is the look. Making a catalogue look clean is the cheap, fast, visible part, and that is what the 8,000-taka quote is selling you. The cost lives in the plumbing, and that plumbing takes senior hours to build properly.
The plumbing means wiring bKash and Nagad so each payment matches the right order, so you are not checking screenshots by hand at midnight. It means a cash-on-delivery flow that marks an order paid only when the rider confirms handover. It means a courier export, so your staff stop retyping every address. It means an admin panel a non-technical person in your shop can run. That engineering is the gap between a store that takes money and ships parcels, and a page that quietly drops orders.
There is also a choice most Sylhet first-timers do not see when they shop on price: build or rent. You can list on Daraz or pay for Shopify, and then you pay a slice of every sale or a monthly fee forever. If you are still testing whether a product sells, that is the smarter first move. Do that before you spend a taka on a custom build. But once you have steady volume, that commission and that rent stop being cheap.
A development price is a one-time number for a store you own outright. You own the domain, the hosting and the customer data. Your bKash settles straight into your own account, with no marketplace taking a cut on the way. The 50,000 BDT floor can look high next to a free Daraz listing. Then you add up a year of commission on real orders. Past a certain volume, owning is cheaper than renting. That is the comparison that matters in Sylhet, not 8,000 taka against 50,000.
When you hire me, the person who quotes the price also writes the checkout. I wire the payments, connect the courier, ship the store, and answer when something breaks six months later. There is no salesman lowballing to win you, then a junior you never meet who breaks the bKash matching. There is no Dhaka office overhead hidden in your figure, like account managers and a margin on every hour. That is why my price undercuts a Dhaka agency for the same work.
You are paying one senior operator with about five years of building Bangladeshi online stores. The number holds. 50,000 BDT buys a focused store that really works. 90,000 BDT is the build most growing Sylhet shops choose. 1,50,000 BDT covers a heavier catalogue with more payment and courier power. Custom work starts from 3,00,000 BDT. It is always 50% advance and 50% on launch, by bKash, Nagad or bank. You approve the full design before I write any code, so the final bill never beats the quote.
Here are six things that make the number make sense for a Sylhet seller tired of vague "koto lagbe, bhai" quotes. Every one is built in from the 50,000 BDT floor. None of them hide inside a pricier package.
50,000, 90,000 and 1,50,000 BDT are on the table from the first WhatsApp message, with custom from 3,00,000. You pick the scope your store needs and pay that figure. Nobody invents a number after seeing your shop or hearing your volume.
The price is the price. No "that feature is extra," no surprise launch-day bill, and no monthly fee to a developer who holds your store hostage. You pay separately only for your own domain, hosting and gateway fees. I tell you those upfront.
The cost is in the parts no demo shows. bKash and Nagad match the right order. COD marks paid only on rider handover. Courier export means nobody retypes addresses. That engineering is why 50,000 BDT buys a store and 8,000 buys a screenshot.
You pay one development price for a store in your name: your domain, your hosting, and bKash settling into your own account. Past real volume, that beats a year of Daraz commission or a Shopify fee forever. You stop renting someone else's platform.
Most of your orders come from a mid-range Android on mobile data, in Bandar Bazar traffic or out in the upazila. I build the store light. The catalogue loads, and checkout survives when the buyer hits back on a weak signal. Cheap themes fail exactly here.
The person on your first message writes the checkout code and picks up when it breaks. There is no salesman-to-junior handoff that quietly breaks payment matching. There is no Dhaka agency margin hidden inside the figure you were quoted.
Sellers who ask koto taka want to compare quotes fairly, so here are the tiers by what gets built. At 50,000 BDT you get a focused, well-built store. It has a clean mobile-first catalogue of up to about 50 products. One payment gateway is live, so bKash or Nagad really closes the order. One courier is wired in with a real COD flow. Your staff run the admin in Bangla mixed with English. It fits a clothing or panjabi seller around Bandar Bazar, or a sweet or grocery shop.
At 90,000 BDT, where most growing Sylhet stores land, the build carries more weight. You get a bigger catalogue with proper categories and search, plus product variants for size and colour. You get bKash plus Nagad from day one, with payment matching on both, and a second courier option. You also get early SEO groundwork. Then you show up for "your product + Sylhet" instead of paying for Facebook ads forever, hidden behind the Dhaka results.
At 1,50,000 BDT, the store starts pulling real weight. You get advanced filters, bundle or combo pricing and multiple payment methods. You get customer accounts with order history, stock control and abandoned-order follow-up. A stronger admin lets staff handle orders and refunds without touching code. It suits a larger brand around Zindabazar or Ambarkhana, a grocery or hamper business, or a multi-category seller. From 3,00,000 BDT, the work is custom: multiple vendors, recurring grocery orders, more than one warehouse, or ERP and POS sync.
Not on this ladder: the 8,000 to 10,000 taka "online store" sold on Facebook. That is a nulled theme and a cart that silently fails on bKash. It has no real courier setup, and it crawls on the mobile data your buyers use. The floor for online store development Sylhet BD sellers pay me is 50,000 BDT. That is the least it costs to build a store here that takes money and ships orders. The cheaper number is not a discount; it is a different, broken product.

These are the price questions Sylhet shop owners really open the WhatsApp chat with. They are not the polished ones from an agency brochure.
A store starts at 50,000 BDT. That buys a mobile-first catalogue of up to about 50 products and bKash or Nagad that closes the order. It also buys one courier with a real COD flow, and an admin your staff can run. 90,000 BDT is what most growing Sylhet stores choose: more products, variants, bKash plus Nagad, a second courier and early SEO. 1,50,000 BDT adds filters, customer accounts and stock control. Custom builds start from 3,00,000 BDT. Payment is 50% advance and 50% on launch, with nothing added later.
Because you are paying for a built store, not a demo of one. The 8,000-taka version is usually a nulled theme with no real payment setup. The cart breaks when a customer tries bKash. It takes 8 to 9 seconds to load on local mobile data, so the order never completes. At 50,000 BDT, bKash closes the sale and matches the order. You edit products without calling me. Pathao or Steadfast is wired in with a working COD flow. It is not the same thing for more money.
If you are still testing whether a product sells, do exactly that first. It is the cheaper way to prove demand. The maths flips once you have steady volume. Daraz takes a commission on every order, and a Shopify-style plan is rent you pay forever. On real Sylhet order numbers, that adds up to more than a one-time build in a year. A build gives you your own domain, hosting and customer data, and bKash settles straight into your account. Rent while unsure, and build once orders are steady.
The checkout, almost every time. That surprises sellers who think they are paying for looks. Making a catalogue look good is the cheap, visible part. The hours go into what no demo shows. bKash and Nagad must match the right order, so nobody checks them by hand at midnight. COD must mark paid only when the rider confirms. Pathao or Steadfast must export orders cleanly. The admin must work for non-technical staff. That plumbing separates a 50,000 BDT store from a 10,000-taka one that drops orders.
Yes, and it is built in, not charged as an extra. Plenty of Sylhet stores sell in Beanibazar, Golapganj, Jagannathpur, Bishwanath and Companiganj. So I wire in a courier and build a COD flow that marks paid only once the rider hands over. At higher tiers I set up zone-aware shipping, so a village an hour out is not priced like Sylhet town by mistake. The 50,000 BDT tier covers one courier and COD. The 90,000 and 1,50,000 BDT tiers add a second courier and zone rules.
No. It is 50% advance to start and 50% on launch, never the full amount upfront. There are no hidden design or development fees on top of the fixed quote. The advance covers the design phase. You pay the rest once the store is built, approved and ready to go live. Outside the price, and told upfront, are your domain, hosting, bKash or Nagad transaction fees, and any premium plugin you choose. Pay me by bKash, Nagad or bank. You approve the full design before I write code.
