An online store website at PintuWeb starts at IDR 300,000 for Online Store Simple and is IDR 3,000,000 – IDR 10,000,000+ for Online Store Full. The difference is more than size: Simple takes orders through WhatsApp, while Full handles carts, payments and shipping automatically.

Two kinds of store, two ways of working

Online Store Simple Online Store Full
Price IDR 300,000 – IDR 2,000,000 IDR 3,000,000 – IDR 10,000,000+
Turnaround 3–5 working days 5–8 working days
Products Catalog up to 20 items As needed, managed in a dashboard
Ordering Checkout via WhatsApp Full cart and checkout
Payment Agreed directly with the buyer Payment gateway integration
Shipping Calculated manually Automatic via RajaOngkir
Managing products Light CMS Admin dashboard for products and orders
Best for Sellers whose daily orders can still be answered one by one Sellers with steady orders who want an automated process

First-year domain, hosting and SSL are included in both.

When is Simple enough?

If you get a dozen orders a day and are used to replying on WhatsApp, a tidy catalog already saves a lot of work: buyers see products, prices and photos, then tap an order button that sends their list to your chat. Many food sellers, craftspeople and small boutiques start here.

Signs you need Full: you answer the same question over and over ("how much is shipping?"), orders arrive after hours and get lost, or confirming payments takes hours.

Why Full costs more

  • Payment gateway. The integration must be tested across payment methods, statuses and cancellations.
  • Automatic shipping. Courier rates depend on weight, origin and destination.
  • Admin dashboard. Managing stock, order status and product data needs logins and access rights.
  • Testing. A broken checkout means lost orders or money, so testing takes longer.

Costs beyond the build

Cost Note
Payment-gateway transaction fees Charged by the gateway provider; they follow its terms and can change
Shipping Paid by the buyer or absorbed by you, per your policy
Domain and hosting renewal Roughly IDR 300,000–500,000 per year from the second year
Product photos Your own clear photos almost always convince better than stock images
Promotion Ads or social content are paid separately
Extra pages Charged per page if you need more than the package

Your own store or a marketplace?

Your own site pays no per-sale commission, but you bring the visitors. That is why many sellers use both. The full comparison is in online store vs marketplace. Other website types are covered in the website cost breakdown.

Before you pay a deposit

  1. Count your products and how often they change.
  2. Decide whether payment must be automatic or manually confirmed transfers are fine.
  3. Prepare photos, descriptions and prices.
  4. Ask who owns the domain and code after full payment. At PintuWeb, everything is yours once you have paid.
  5. Open live store examples from our 83 demos and read the online store service page.

Start from the contact page: describe your products and we suggest a package and an estimate.

Frequently asked questions

Online Store Simple is IDR 300,000 – IDR 2,000,000 and Online Store Full is IDR 3,000,000 – IDR 10,000,000+. The final figure depends on product count and automation features.

That is Online Store Full: IDR 3,000,000 – IDR 10,000,000+, including a cart, payment gateway integration, automatic shipping rates and an admin dashboard. Gateway transaction fees are paid separately to the provider.
