Packages

What does an online store cost? Fixed, and agreed upfront.

Every package includes 10 products, with further products at R400 per block of 10. What moves the price is how many pages you need and how much store functionality is being built. We do not charge VAT, so the price you see is the price you pay.

Pay once and own the store from launch. Hosting and care are a separate monthly cost, and you are free to host anywhere.

Built to sell

Tested with real orders before anyone can buy.

Payments that work
Payment gateway set up and tested end to end. The only per-sale cost is your gateway's own fee, which goes to them, not us.
Shipping that matches your rates
Shipping zones and rules built on the Business package, so customers see the right delivery cost at checkout.
A catalogue that scales
Ten products on every package, then blocks of ten at R400. Already have a spreadsheet? Bulk importing is usually quicker and cheaper.
How it works

From quote to first order.

Built on staging first, then test orders run end to end: payment, confirmation email and stock movement.

Straight answers

What costs extra.

Products past 10
R400 per block of ten, quoted with the package so the total is known upfront.
Hosting and care
Included on monthly plans, along with SSL, updates and backups. On a once-off build it is a separate monthly cost, and you can host anywhere.
Payment gateway fees
Your gateway takes a percentage of each transaction. That is their charge. We take no commission on your sales.
Scope added later
New features after sign-off are quoted separately. You approve the cost first, every time.

Questions we get asked

Questions about online stores.

How much does an e-commerce website cost in South Africa?

Our store packages start at R7 000 once-off, or R899 a month on a 12-month term. Every package includes 10 products. What moves the price is how many pages you need and how much store functionality is built.

What if I have more than 10 products?

Extra products are loaded in blocks of ten at R400 a block, on any package. A hundred-product range is the package price plus R3 600 for the extra ninety. If your catalogue is already in a spreadsheet, bulk importing is usually faster and cheaper.

Do you take a commission on my sales?

No. We take nothing from your turnover, on either payment option. The only per-sale cost is your payment gateway's transaction fee, which goes to them. That is one of the main reasons we build on WooCommerce instead of a hosted platform.

Is paying monthly more expensive than paying once-off?

Over twelve months you pay more than the once-off price, but the monthly figure also covers hosting, SSL, updates and backups. A once-off build pays for those separately. If cash flow allows and you want to own the store immediately, once-off is simpler.

Do I own the store on a monthly plan?

Yes. The store becomes yours at the end of the 12-month term. During the term you have a live, fully working shop with hosting, SSL, updates and backups included. To own it from launch, choose once-off.

I already have a store. Do I pay full price to rebuild it?

Not necessarily. A redesign is quoted once we have seen what you have, because existing products, content and rankings can often be carried across. The review that produces that quote is free.

Which package should I choose?

Page count is usually the deciding factor, because products are priced separately. Starter suits one page plus a shop. Basic adds categories and filters for a growing range. Business adds shipping zones, discounts and location SEO for higher volume. Tell us your range and we will point you to the right one.
