In short
Custom ecommerce development is the design and build of an online store in its own code, or as a custom front end on top of a commerce platform such as Shopify (headless). At Enthros a custom store starts from $900 and goes live in 7 to 10 weeks.
The $900 starting price covers a custom front end, the catalogue, checkout and payments. Large catalogues, product configurators, several markets, accounts, subscriptions and links to your own systems are quoted to fit, before work starts. Hosting and any platform fees sit in your own accounts.

Custom ecommerce questions
Asked often.
Not here? Ask us directly, we answer within one working day.
All questionsHow much does a custom ecommerce website cost?
A custom store from Enthros starts at $900, with a custom front end, catalogue, checkout and payments. Large catalogues, configurators, several markets, subscriptions and system links are quoted to fit, and the quote is fixed before we start.
How long does a custom store take?
Seven to ten weeks from the first call to the first order. Stores with configurators, several markets or links to your own systems take longer, and your plan comes with exact dates.
What is a headless store?
A headless store keeps a commerce platform such as Shopify for products, orders and checkout, and replaces the theme with a custom front end. You get full design and speed control and keep a back office your team already knows.
Custom store or Shopify?
Shopify with a custom theme suits most stores and costs less. A custom or headless store makes sense for products priced by rules, huge traffic peaks or a shopping experience no theme can give. We recommend one after the first call.
Can you move our existing store?
Yes. We move products, customers, orders and redirects from Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento or a custom store, so you keep your history and your search rankings.
Can the store link to our other systems?
Yes. Stock, shipping, accounting and email tools can all be connected, so orders flow through without copying data by hand.
Who owns the code?
You do. On final payment the code, the designs and every account the store runs on are yours.
How much does a custom ecommerce website cost?
A custom ecommerce website usually costs $900 to $10,000 for a custom front end on a commerce platform with a standard catalogue, $10,000 to $50,000 for a headless store with product rules, several markets or links to your own systems, and $50,000 or more for a fully custom build.
How much does a Shopify store cost?
A Shopify store has two costs: the build and the monthly running cost.
