A Shopify store built for Dhaka shoppers, not Shopify's California template gallery.
My Shopify store development service in Dhaka covers your store from start to finish. I tune the theme for Bangla buyers and set up COD plus bKash and Nagad. I connect Steadfast or Pathao, import your products and add abandoned-cart recovery. Your checkout loads on a 3G connection in Mirpur. One operator handles design, development and launch. Prices start from 50,000 BDT.
5 years building stores. 50% advance, 50% on launch. Design-approval guarantee.

Most stores I fix through my Shopify store development service in Dhaka have the same problem. The owner picked a free theme and connected Stripe or PayPal, which do not accept BDT. Now Instagram traffic bounces because the checkout asks for a ZIP code. The platform is not wrong. The setup is. Shopify is one of the cleanest ecommerce systems in the world. But it ships set up for North American merchants, and Dhaka customers behave very differently.
I run Shopify store development as a service, not a template handoff. I study your products, pricing, courier choice and ad plan. Then I build the store around how a 24-year-old in Bashundhara really shops on a Realme phone at 11pm.
That means cash on delivery as the default, with bKash and Nagad as confirmed options. Courier rates are worked out by inside-Dhaka and outside-Dhaka zones. Product descriptions are in Bangla where that sells better. And the thank-you page sets the right promise about delivery time.
I have built and launched WooCommerce and Shopify stores for about five years, working solo. No project manager forwards emails, and no juniors test on your live store. You message me, and I reply. You see the design, you approve it and I build it. If you don't approve the design, you don't pay the balance. That deal is written into every Shopify quote I send, starting at 50,000 BDT.
Maybe you want a store that a Dhanmondi agency will charge 4,00,000 BDT to set up, plus a 30,000 BDT monthly retainer. If so, I am not your option. But if you want a senior person to set it up properly once, hand you the keys and stay available when something breaks, keep reading.
This is not a list of Shopify features, because Shopify already lists those. These are the choices I make for your store because you are selling in Dhaka.
I set cash on delivery as the default payment method. I add phone-number checks and OTP confirmation to cut fake orders, which are the biggest cost killer for Bangladeshi Shopify stores.
I set up manual payment methods for bKash personal and merchant, Nagad and bank transfer. Buyers see clear steps on the order-confirmation page. You get an admin workflow to check payments fast.
I connect Steadfast, Pathao or RedX to your order workflow. You push orders to the courier with one click, instead of copy-pasting addresses into a Google Sheet at midnight.
I tune Dawn or a paid theme, compress and lazy-load images and audit third-party apps. A buyer in Mohammadpur on a weak signal sees product pages in under 3 seconds.
I set up product titles, descriptions and key buttons in both languages where that sells. Bangla often works for FMCG and fashion, and English for tech and B2B. I help you decide, so you do not have to guess.
I design the store, build it and set up the apps. I train you on the admin in a 60-minute Zoom call. Then I hand over the logins plus a short Loom video, so you are never locked in.
The first issue every Shopify merchant in Bangladesh hits is payments. Shopify Payments is not available here, so Stripe and PayPal are out by default. You can add international card gateways like 2Checkout. But in practice, 80 to 90 percent of a Dhaka Shopify store's revenue comes through cash on delivery, bKash and Nagad. That one fact changes the whole build.
Checkout fields must ask for the right phone format. The order confirmation must set honest delivery times: 1 to 2 working days inside Dhaka and 3 to 5 outside. And the admin needs a way to check a bKash transaction ID before marking an order paid.
The second thing that breaks copy-paste Shopify builds is courier logistics. A Dhaka store ships through Steadfast, Pathao, RedX or Sundarban, not Shopify Shipping. So shipping rates must be set by Dhaka City and outside-Dhaka zones. Return-to-sender fees must be part of your margin. And the order workflow needs to push to the courier API or a clean CSV export.
Get this wrong, and you spend 4 hours a day on operations. Get it right, and you can scale. That is what I set up. It is not a generic Shopify store. It is a Bangladeshi Shopify store that runs cleanly from order one to order ten thousand.

It starts at 50,000 BDT for a clean Shopify launch on Dawn or a similar free theme. That covers up to 30 products, COD plus bKash and Nagad, one courier and a 60-minute training call. 90,000 BDT covers a paid theme with deeper changes and a larger product import. 1,50,000 BDT covers a fully custom-designed store with multi-courier setup, abandoned-cart automation and a custom landing page. Anything bigger, or with custom app work, starts at 3,00,000 BDT. Payment is 50% advance and 50% on launch.
Shopify works fine in Bangladesh as a platform. The catch is that Shopify Payments is not available, so you cannot take cards through Shopify's own gateway. Here is what every working Shopify store in Dhaka does instead. It runs cash on delivery as the default and sets up bKash and Nagad as manual payment methods. It may also add an international gateway like 2Checkout for buyers abroad. I set up all of that in the base 50,000 BDT package.
Choose Shopify if you want no hosting hassle and a fast launch, and you are fine paying the monthly plan in USD. That is about 29 to 79 USD a month, based on the plan. Choose WooCommerce if you want monthly costs near zero or already have a WordPress site. It also suits unusual selling setups the Shopify app store cannot cover. For most fashion, FMCG and small-batch brands in Dhaka, Shopify launches faster. I build both, and I will tell you honestly which fits on the first call.
A standard 50,000 BDT Shopify build takes 10 to 14 working days from the advance payment. That assumes you send product photos, prices and content on time. The 90,000 BDT build takes 3 weeks, and the 1,50,000 BDT build takes 4 to 5 weeks. The slowest part is almost always waiting for your product images and descriptions. I give you a clear checklist on day one, so you know exactly what I need.
It really works. I connect the courier through its official Shopify app, since Pathao and Steadfast both have one. If no app exists, I set up a CSV export workflow. After launch, you select orders in your Shopify admin and click one button. The order goes to your courier dashboard, and the consignment ID saves back to Shopify on its own. There is no copy-paste and no Google Sheet.
You don't pay the balance. I send a home page and one product page mockup before any development work. You approve, reject or ask for changes, with unlimited rounds within scope. Only after you sign off in writing do I move to development. I ask for the 50% balance on launch. This is the same design-approval guarantee I run on every project, including 50,000 BDT Shopify builds.
