An online store built by DPX with products and checkout

What does an online store cost to build in Nigeria?

An e-commerce website in Nigeria starts at ₦400,000 for a straightforward catalogue and rises to ₦1,000,000 and beyond for larger stores with complex variants, multi-vendor logic or custom integrations. Every DPX store ships with Paystack and Flutterwave checkout accepting cards, bank transfer and USSD, guest checkout by default, WhatsApp ordering where it suits the business, and a dashboard for managing products, stock and orders.

In detail

What this means for your project

What an online store really costs in Nigeria

The build is the part people quote: from ₦400,000 for a clean catalogue with checkout, up to ₦1,000,000 and beyond once you need variants, multi-vendor logic, subscriptions or integrations with an existing inventory system. The running costs matter just as much. Payment gateways take a percentage of every transaction and publish their current rates openly. Hosting scales with traffic and catalogue size. Product photography, delivery and returns are operational costs that decide whether the store is profitable, not technical ones. We size the build against the margin on what you sell, because a ₦1,000,000 store selling ₦3,000 items has a long road to break-even.

Payments Nigerians will actually complete

Card abandonment is high here, and it is rarely the customer's fault: an unrecognised OTP screen, a bank downtime, a card with a low international limit. Every store we build accepts card, bank transfer and USSD through Paystack and Flutterwave, so a failed card is not a lost order. Guest checkout is on by default, because forcing account creation before payment costs more sales than it saves. For businesses whose customers prefer to talk first, we wire the cart to WhatsApp so an order can be completed in a chat and still be recorded in the dashboard.

Delivery, returns and the parts that break trust

Most Nigerian store failures happen after payment. We design the delivery step around how you actually fulfil: pickup, dispatch rider within Lagos, interstate courier, with real charges shown before payment rather than a vague 'we will contact you'. Order statuses are written for customers, not for developers, and the dashboard makes it obvious which orders are unfulfilled. Where you accept payment on delivery, we make the risk explicit in the flow and give you a record trail. Returns get a stated policy on the site, because an unanswered question about returns is a reason not to buy.

Product pages that rank, and a store that stays fast

Search is where most stores earn their traffic, and product pages are where it is won or lost: unique descriptions rather than the manufacturer's paragraph, correct product structured data so Google can show price and availability, sensible category URLs, and images compressed for mobile data. Speed is part of it — a catalogue that loads slowly on a mid-range phone loses both rankings and buyers. We build with that in mind and hand over a dashboard you can run without a developer, plus a walkthrough of how to add products without breaking the page structure.

E-commerce Solutions questions

Asked before every project.

How much does an e-commerce website cost in Nigeria?

Online stores typically range from ₦400,000 to ₦1,000,000+ depending on catalogue size and features. Every DPX store includes payment gateway integration, inventory management and store SEO — request a quote for an itemized price.

Which payment gateways do you integrate?

Paystack, Flutterwave and direct bank transfer are standard. We can also integrate international gateways like Stripe where your business requires it.

Can I manage products and orders myself?

Yes — every store ships with a dashboard for products, stock, and orders, plus a handover session so your team runs the store without a developer.

WooCommerce, Shopify or custom — which should I choose?

WooCommerce suits most Nigerian stores that want control and no monthly platform fee. Shopify suits teams who want the platform maintained for them and can carry the subscription. A custom build is for models the platforms fight against — multi-vendor, unusual pricing rules, or deep integration with existing systems. We recommend based on your catalogue and who will run the store day to day.

Can you move my existing store to a new site?

Yes. Products, customers and orders can be migrated, and we map the old URLs to the new ones so the search rankings and any printed links keep working.

Will I be able to add products myself?

Yes. Every store ships with a dashboard for products, stock and orders and a handover session for your team, so day-to-day changes never need a developer.
