E-commerce Website Development in the UAE
Online stores set up for how UAE customers buy — local payment gateways, Arabic and English, and an admin you can actually run yourself. From a WooCommerce shop to a fully custom store.
UAE payment gateways
Telr, PayTabs, HyperPay, and Tabby (buy now, pay later) integrated into WooCommerce or a custom Laravel store, so customers can pay the way they expect.
Arabic and English storefront
Product pages, checkout, and emails that work in both languages with a right-to-left Arabic layout — not an English store with a translate button.
An admin you can run yourself
Adding products, updating prices, and handling orders without calling a developer — with a handover so your team knows how.
The right platform for your size
WooCommerce when it fits and gets you selling fastest; a custom Laravel or Next.js store when your catalogue, pricing, or integrations outgrow it.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an e-commerce website cost in the UAE?
It depends mostly on the platform and how many integrations you need. A WooCommerce store costs far less than a fully custom one, and payment gateways, delivery integrations, and catalogue size all move the price. I give a fixed, itemised estimate after a free discovery call.
Which payment gateways can you integrate?
I've integrated Telr, PayTabs, HyperPay, and Tabby (buy now, pay later) into both WooCommerce and custom Laravel stores. If you already have a merchant account with another provider, I'll check its integration options with you.
WooCommerce, Shopify, or a custom store?
WooCommerce suits most small and mid-sized UAE stores and is quick to launch. A custom store makes sense when you need pricing rules, integrations, or scale that off-the-shelf platforms handle badly. I'll recommend whichever fits — not whichever costs more.
How long does it take to launch an online store?
A WooCommerce store typically takes 3–6 weeks. A custom Laravel or Next.js store takes 6–16 weeks depending on complexity. As a PMP-certified project lead, I give you a milestone timeline before work starts.
