Ecommerce that ships and sells.

An ecommerce build in 2026 typically costs $3,000-$120,000+ depending on approach. Shopify with theme customisation (standard products, PCI + tax + shipping handled) runs $3,000-$15,000. Headless Shopify (Shopify backend + custom frontend for brand control and performance) runs $15,000-$40,000. Fully custom ecommerce (Medusa, bespoke, or complex marketplace with unusual business logic) runs $30,000-$120,000+. Rule of thumb: Shopify below $3M annual revenue; consider headless at $3-10M; fully custom above that or when Shopify's data model genuinely breaks. Bilingual (EN + AR) adds ~30-40% to any tier. Anything quoted under $2K is a theme install with a translation layer — not a real ecommerce build. Timeline: Shopify 2-6 weeks; headless 6-12 weeks; custom 12-24 weeks.

Shopify for standard products, fast time-to-market, and teams that don't want to manage infrastructure. Custom or headless when brand experience, unusual business models, or multi-channel selling demand more control. We advise honestly.

Shopify builds: $5,000–$15,000. Headless commerce (Next.js + Shopify): $15,000–$40,000. Fully custom platforms: $30,000–$100,000+ depending on scope. Marketplaces are quoted separately.

Yes. Woo → Shopify, Magento → Shopify, Shopify → headless. Full URL redirect mapping, product/customer/order migration, and SEO preservation. Migrations are risky if done poorly — we've done many.
