An online store built by an agency is more than an installed theme: products and categories, card payments, couriers, invoices, the legal pages, and someone to fix what breaks after launch. We compared nine agencies in Romania that build online stores, on price, platform, timeline, warranty and whether they work in English. Everything was checked on 18 October 2026; prices in Romanian lei (RON) are converted at the European Central Bank rate of 16 October 2026, RON 5.331 to the euro.

The agencies, one by one

1. Manvro

Why it's first: the lowest starting price on the list, the only published 24-month warranty, and a store built on whatever suits you: WooCommerce, Shopify or code.

We're an agency in Bucharest. We design every store from scratch, with the business's own photos, words and colours, rather than starting from a bought theme. We build it on WooCommerce if you want no subscription and to add products yourself from WordPress; on Shopify if you don't want to deal with anything technical; or in custom code when speed matters or the store does something platforms don't. We connect card payments (Stripe or Netopia), couriers and invoicing, and for stores that sell abroad we set up languages, currencies and taxes.

What we build Starting price
Online store (WooCommerce, Shopify or custom) €499
Small business website €169

On top of that:

  • you talk directly to the person who builds your store, in English or Romanian;
  • we reply to every message within one business day;
  • you get the price and timeline in writing after the first conversation, which is free;
  • for 24 months we fix for free anything that doesn't work as agreed;
  • the store, the domain and the payment accounts are in your company's name;
  • we work online with businesses in Romania and abroad, and meet at your office in Bucharest.

2. Creare-MagazinOnline.ro

Creare-MagazinOnline.ro is a brand of Digital Web Studio in Bucharest. It builds on an open-source platform with a lifetime licence for the admin panel. The Business package costs €499 (shown next to €649) and includes more than 200 features, a customised theme and logo, invoice issuing, abandoned-cart recovery, basic SEO and a year of hosting. The Premium package, with fully custom design and connections to ERP systems, eMAG and invoicing software, is quoted on request.

Good for: a low fixed price and a store with many features already included.

3. Alex Design

Alex Design is a Bucharest agency that builds stores on WordPress with WooCommerce or on Shopify, at the same price. It has six fixed packages from RON 2,990 to RON 5,990, each including the one before: the first has 1⁠–⁠10 products with payment and delivery set up; the courier and invoicing connections start with the Pro package, at RON 3,990. Delivery takes 7⁠–⁠14 days. WordPress hosting starts at RON 349 a year.

Good for: a store ready quickly, at a price known in advance.

4. SmartSites

SmartSites builds stores on WooCommerce with a one-time payment and four packages: RON 2,990, 3,890, 4,690 and 5,990. All include a .ro domain and a year of hosting. The entry package has 20 products and cash on delivery or bank transfer; card payments (RON 590), courier labels (RON 390) and automatic invoicing (RON 490) are added separately or come in the larger packages. Delivery takes 7⁠–⁠10 days for the first package and 21⁠–⁠30 days for the last. Optional maintenance costs RON 199 a month.

Good for: a small WooCommerce store with what's included written on the site.

5. Sell Easy

It says it is a Shopify Partner, has 7 specialists and has launched more than 50 Shopify stores since 2020.

Maintenance is optional, from RON 900 a month, and can be stopped month to month. The store, domain and accounts stay in the client's name.

Good for: businesses that have already chosen Shopify and want a team that works only on it.

Prices start at 3,900 plus VAT, fixed (the page doesn't state the currency), and a store takes 3⁠–⁠6 weeks. It says it has clients in Romania, Switzerland and Ireland.

Good for: a WooCommerce store designed for the business, not started from a theme.

It says it has launched more than 20 stores in Romania and replies within two hours. It doesn't publish prices or timelines.

How we chose the agencies

On 18 October 2026 we searched Google for "creare magazin online" (online store development) and "agenție ecommerce România magazine online", then added to the list with a web search for "creare magazin online preț" (online store price). We kept the firms that appear with their own website for these searches, have a page about online stores and describe their service. We left out subscription platforms (Gomag, MerchantPro, Shopify), business directories, freelancers, agencies that only run ads for stores, and bank offers delivered through partners.

The information about the other agencies comes from their own websites, without requesting quotes. Prices change: if an agency's website says something different from the table, the website is right.

The starting price is for the simplest store. It rises with the number of products, variants (sizes, colours), importing a supplier's product file, card payments, and every courier or system connected to the store. What drives the price, in detail: How much does an online store cost.

Shopify, WooCommerce or custom

Most agencies on the list build on one platform. Shopify has a monthly subscription and handles updates and security itself; it adds a fee on each order if you don't use Shopify Payments. WooCommerce has no subscription and takes no commission, but it needs hosting and regular updates. A custom store costs more to build but does exactly what you need, without a platform's limits. At Manvro we build all three, so we recommend the platform by what you sell and who will run the store. The full comparison: Shopify vs WooCommerce.

Hiring a Romanian agency from abroad

A store can be built entirely online: calls, sketches and the store in progress all happen over the internet. Romania is in the EU, so the agency works under the same GDPR and consumer rules as any EU business, and the time zone is UTC+2 (UTC+3 in summer). Before you start, check that the agency works in English (four of the nine have English websites), that invoices are in a currency that suits you, and that the store, domain and payment accounts are registered in your company's name.

What to ask before you sign

  1. Whose name are the store, the domain and the payment and courier accounts in? The safest answer is your company's.
  2. What's in the price: how many products, card payments, how many couriers, invoicing, the legal pages (terms, returns)?
  3. Who adds the products at launch, and how do you add them afterwards?
  4. Which platform, and why: what does it cost each month, and what fees does it take?
  5. How long is the warranty, and what does it cover?
  6. How long will it take, and what do you need to send, and by when?
  7. Does the store issue invoices automatically in the format your country requires?
  8. What do changes cost after launch?

At Manvro, the store and accounts are in your name, you get the price and timeline in writing before we start, the warranty is 24 months, and invoices go out automatically from your invoicing software.
