# WooCommerce Developer in Nepal — custom stores, Nepal payments, and performance at scale.

Senior WooCommerce developer based in Kathmandu, Nepal. Twelve-plus years of WordPress and PHP, with deep experience integrating Nepal-specific payment gateways (eSewa, Khalti, Fonepay) into WooCommerce stores serving customers across South Asia and worldwide.

## Why hire a WooCommerce specialist over a generic web developer?

WooCommerce is deceptive. A demo store goes up in an afternoon. A production store with real customers, real payments and real edge cases is an entirely different animal. Tax rules, refund flows, partial fulfilment, subscription renewals, gateway timeouts, multi-currency rounding, EU VAT, GST, and a dozen jurisdictional quirks each have a "correct" WooCommerce way and a wrong way. A specialist has seen these traps before and routes around them.

## WooCommerce services I offer

- **Custom product types & configurators** — variable products beyond the built-in attribute system. Multi-step builders, conditional add-ons, custom price calculations.
- **Nepal payment gateway integrations** — eSewa, Khalti, Fonepay, ConnectIPS as first-class gateways with proper webhook handling, refunds and admin reporting.
- **Performance & scaling** — query optimisation, object caching, fragment caching. The difference between a 4-second product page and 1.2 seconds is usually three database queries.
- **Headless WooCommerce** — REST and Store API consumed by Next.js or Vue, with cart and checkout in WordPress for PCI scope reasons.
- **Migrations** — moving from Magento, OpenCart, Shopify or custom carts into WooCommerce without losing customers, orders or SEO.
- **Subscriptions & memberships** — recurring billing, dunning, member-only content gates.

## Nepal payment gateways I integrate

- **eSewa** — Nepal's largest digital wallet. Standard checkout, refunds, transaction reconciliation.
- **Khalti** — popular wallet with mobile-first checkout. Web checkout and mobile SDK integration.
- **Fonepay** — bank-direct payment rail covering most Nepali banks. QR and account-debit flows.
- **ConnectIPS** — direct bank-to-bank account debit, useful for higher-value transactions.
- **PayPal & Stripe** — for international customers, configured alongside Nepal gateways with smart routing.

## FAQ

**How much does a custom WooCommerce store cost in Nepal?** USD 2,000 to USD 20,000 depending on integrations. Standard store with 2–3 payment gateways starts around USD 3,000.

**How long does it take?** Standard store ships in 3–6 weeks. Custom configurators or headless builds take 6–12 weeks.

**Do you offer ongoing maintenance?** Yes — monthly retainers from USD 1,500/month with reserved capacity.

**Which hosting do you recommend for WooCommerce in Nepal?** A managed WordPress host with PHP 8+, Redis and HTTP/2 covers most stores. For higher-traffic stores I recommend a tuned VPS on AWS Singapore or Mumbai for low latency.
