Software & Web Development Pricing in Sri Lanka
Honest, project-based pricing — you only pay for what you need.
Every project is different, so we don't believe in one-size-fits-all price lists. Instead, we quote each project individually based on your exact requirements — and we're completely transparent about what drives the cost. Here's how it works.

What about domain & hosting?
To put any website online you also need a domain name (your web address, e.g. yourbusiness.lk) and web hosting (space on a server). These are paid yearly, directly to the provider, and are separate from our website charge. Typical costs in Sri Lanka:
Domain name
A .lk domain from about Rs. 3,500–4,500/year (.com from around Rs. 3,000–4,500/year).
Web hosting
Basic shared hosting from about Rs. 4,000–6,000/year, usually including SSL and email.
So you should budget roughly Rs. 7,500–10,500/year for domain + hosting combined. Prices vary by provider and plan — we'll recommend a reliable Sri Lankan provider and set everything up for you.
What affects the cost?
The price of a website, app, or software system in Sri Lanka comes down to a few key factors. Understanding these helps you plan a budget that fits your goals.
Scope & Features
The number of features, screens, and user roles is the biggest driver of cost.
Design Complexity
A custom-designed, animated interface takes more effort than a clean template-based one.
Integrations
Payment gateways (PayHere, cards), SMS, maps, accounting tools, and APIs add scope.
Platform
Web only, mobile (iOS + Android), or both — and whether it's native or cross-platform.
Data & Users
Expected traffic, data volume, and concurrent users affect architecture and hosting.
Timeline & Support
Tight deadlines and ongoing maintenance or SLAs influence the overall investment.

Pricing FAQs
How much does it cost to build a website in Sri Lanka?
There's no single fixed price — it depends on the number of pages, design, features, and integrations. A simple business website is affordable for SMEs, while web applications with custom functionality cost more. We give you a transparent, fixed quote after a free consultation so you know exactly what to expect.
How much does custom software or a mobile app cost?
Custom software and app costs depend entirely on scope and complexity. A focused MVP to validate an idea is far more affordable than a full-featured platform, and choosing a cross-platform build can reduce mobile costs. We scope your project and provide a clear, itemised estimate.
Why don't you publish fixed prices?
Because every project is different. Fixed price lists either overcharge simple projects or under-deliver on complex ones. Instead, we quote each project individually based on your actual requirements, so you only pay for what you need.
Can I pay in stages?
Yes. We deliver in phases and can structure payments to match milestones, which makes larger projects easier to budget and reduces your risk.
Do you work with small business budgets?
Absolutely. We work with startups and small businesses as well as larger enterprises, and we can phase a project or start with a lean version so you can begin within your budget and grow over time.
