There is no one fixed price for developing eCommerce development solutions. The cost varies from factors such as:
The scope of your project: Including the amount and complexity of the app's features. Enterprise ecommerce development, custom eCommerce software development and tailor-made features, like AR shopping try-on or AI-based recommendation systems, might significantly increase the overall development cost. Therefore, you should always take advantage of the product discovery phase: a deliberate choice of the app's core features is critical to the efficiency and profitability of your eCommerce app.
The choice of eCommerce app development platform: Depending on your customers' needs, you can go for native Android, iOS, or cross-platform development. Developing one native application is usually cheaper than creating a cross-platform solution. However, cross-platform frameworks (such as Flutter or React Native) allow brands to use the shared codebase to quickly develop, scale and effortlessly maintain multiple Android, iOS, web and desktop eCommerce apps. In other words: if you plan to reach wider audiences faster and cheaper, cross-platform might be a way to go.
eCommerce app testing, post-delivery maintenance and technical support: Remember to include testing, maintenance and technical support in the development budget. These three steps are essential for your users' satisfaction and hence, sooner or later, will affect your business growth. Ensure easy-to-maintain, effortless UX/UI solutions, good technical documentation, thorough QA testing, and keep technical debt under control at all times.
