The calculator asks 15 questions about your store: design or development (or both), design style, supported devices, CMS, core eCommerce functionality, catalogue management, multi-store and multi-vendor features, payment methods, logo, customer sign-up and profiles, communication channels, reporting and blog. Each option carries a predefined cost in our estimator, and the estimate is the sum of the options you choose.
This makes it easy to test trade-offs: for example, how much a multi-vendor marketplace adds compared with a single-brand store. If you only need a standard online store of up to 30 pages, our fixed-price Ultimate Impact plan in the website design and development packages costs $6,000 on WooCommerce or Shopify. For non-store projects, use the website cost calculator, the WordPress website cost calculator or the web application cost calculator.

We build eCommerce sites on WooCommerce, Shopify and custom stacks; examples include The Manga Store, an anime apparel brand on WordPress, and the FloxyPay WooCommerce crypto payment plugin.

eCommerce UX design and website development
Payment gateway, shipping and tax set-up
ERP, CRM, inventory and order fulfilment integrations
eCommerce SEO and launch planning
Ongoing maintenance and support
VOCSO designs and builds eCommerce websites end to end: strategy, custom design, development, platform migration, integrations, eCommerce SEO and ongoing website maintenance. For stores that need bespoke design or complex integrations, see our custom web design and development service.
A few reasons clients choose us:
Longevity: VOCSO has been in business since 2009.
Experience: 600+ projects delivered by a 25+ person in-house team in India.
Certified processes: ISO 9001:2015 and ISO/IEC 27001, which matters when your store handles customer and payment data.
Transparent pricing: the estimate from this calculator uses the same pricing logic we use when we quote.
Support after launch: bug-fix support after go-live, and maintenance plans from $90 a month.
An eCommerce website typically costs $5,000 to $55,000 to design and build, and fully custom stores range from $10,000 to $250,000 or more. Where your store falls depends on the platform, the number of products and categories, payment and shipping rules, integrations with ERP or inventory systems, and how custom the design is. At VOCSO, a standard store of up to 30 pages on WooCommerce or Shopify is available as a fixed-price $6,000 package; see our website design and development packages. For your exact feature list, use the calculator above.
The calculator gives a realistic planning range rather than a fixed quote. Every option you select has a predefined cost in our estimator, so the estimate is as accurate as the answers you give. What a questionnaire cannot capture is data quality (for example, messy product data that needs cleaning before import), unusual business rules and third-party systems with poor APIs. We review those on a scoping call and then give you a fixed price. Use the calculator to compare options, such as single-vendor versus marketplace, before that call.
Custom eCommerce website development typically costs $10,000 to $250,000 or more. A custom build makes sense for large stores that must handle high traffic and need deep integrations with ERP, CRM, reviews, inventory or fulfilment tools, or checkout logic that off-the-shelf platforms cannot support. For most small and mid-size stores, WooCommerce or Shopify with a custom design is faster and cheaper. Our custom web design and development team can tell you on a short call which route fits your catalogue and growth plans.
A WordPress eCommerce store built on WooCommerce typically costs $1,000 to $15,000, depending on design, the number of products, and the paid extensions and services you add. Theme-based stores with a small catalogue sit at the low end; custom-designed stores with subscriptions, multiple currencies or ERP integration sit at the high end. Ongoing costs include hosting, premium plugin licences and maintenance. To price a WordPress store feature by feature, try the WordPress website cost calculator.
The main cost factors for an eCommerce website are:
Design: a fully custom design costs considerably more than a template.
Platform: WooCommerce, Shopify, Magento or a custom stack each carry different build and licence costs.
Functionality: subscriptions, marketplaces, B2B pricing and other custom features add development time.
Data imports: migrating products, customers and past orders adds effort.
Integrations: connecting ERP, CRM or fulfilment systems can cost thousands.
Shipping and tax rules: complex rules add development and testing time.
SEO and marketing set-up: optional, but important for organic traffic.
