The published prices
These are the floors on the studio rate card. They are starting numbers. A larger brief costs more. A smaller brief does not drop below the floor for that kind of system, because the floor is what it takes to ship something you can own.

What each price includes
GHS 5,000 — business website
This is not a software system. It is the public site: the pages you agreed, a mobile layout, WhatsApp and forms, on-page SEO, SSL, and training. Buy this when people need to find you. Do not buy this when staff need to run the business inside it.
GHS 8,000 — online store
A catalogue customers can pay for with MTN MoMo, Telecel Cash, or Paystack. The payment is confirmed on the server. This is the right price when you sell products. It is the wrong price when you also need branches, credit, or a staff roster.
GHS 10,000 — custom CRM
Leads, a pipeline, WhatsApp, and invoicing in one place your team actually opens. Foreign CRMs bill in dollars per user. This price is a one-time build in cedis, and you keep the code.
GHS 15,000 — web application
The operating system of one business. Logins, a dashboard, and the rules: who can approve, who can refund, what happens when a payment fails. You see a working slice in weeks, not a reveal at month four.
GHS 15,000 — mobile app
The same product on iOS and Android, for customers or for staff in the field. If the work is mostly a screen on a laptop, a web application is the cheaper correct choice. We will say so.
GHS 30,000 — SaaS platform
Many customers, each with their own data, and a subscription they can pay in cedis. This is a product company, not an internal tool. The extra money is tenants, billing, and the support burden of people who are not your staff.
What the price does not include
- Your domain renewal and hosting after launch. Those stay in your name.
- A live integration we have not seen the documentation for.
- Moving years of messy records, unless the quote says so.
- A monthly retainer. Handover is part of the written scope. Support after that is a separate agreement.
How you pay
You get the scope and the price in writing first. The studio's normal split on a build is 50% to start and 50% at launch, by MTN MoMo, Telecel Cash, bank transfer, or card. If a project needs a different split, it is written down before you pay. The number does not move because the cedi moved that week.
Ask for the line, not the slogan
Two quotes that both say "software" are not the same product. Read custom software development prices in Ghana before you compare a one-line WhatsApp price with a written scope.
