“Online store kitna lagega?” depends on the catalogue and how you take money — not on a theme name. Below are planning ranges we use in discovery for Pakistani retailers. They are not a price list.
Three common builds
| Type | Fits when | What you are paying for |
|---|---|---|
| Shopify | You want hosted checkout and apps fast | Theme, apps, payments, shipping rules — see [Shopify development](/services/ecommerce-shopify) |
| WooCommerce | You already live in WordPress | Store + content on one CMS — [WooCommerce](/services/woocommerce-development) |
| Custom | Wholesale rules, unusual SKUs, or a marketplace | Your workflow as software — [custom e-commerce](/services/ecommerce-development) |
Pakistan-specific extras that change cost
- Cash on delivery flows and confirmation calls.
- Leopards, TCS, PostEx or Trax rate tables.
- JazzCash / EasyPaisa / bank transfer as first-class methods.
- Urdu or bilingual product pages.
- Wholesale price lists for dealers.
What is not included in a “cheap store” quote
Product photography, a year of ads, and someone to answer “where is my order” are separate. A 30,000-rupee theme install with twenty plugins will cost more in lost checkouts than a clean build.
Bring a product count and how you fulfil today. We will tell you which of the three paths is cheaper for that catalogue — get a scoped quote.
