WooCommerce development in Thailand.

Often, on fees. WooCommerce is open source and takes no cut of your sales, so you pay only your payment gateway. That matters here because Shopify Payments is not available to Thai merchants, so Shopify stores run a third-party gateway and pay Shopify's own transaction fee on top of it. The trade is that you take on hosting, security and maintenance, which has a real cost too — just a different one.

WordPress core is not the weak point — plugins are. Patchstack's 2025 data found 91% of new WordPress vulnerabilities were in plugins and only a handful in core, with nearly half unpatched at disclosure. A WooCommerce store is as secure as its plugin discipline and patching schedule, which is exactly why we treat maintenance as part of the build rather than an optional extra.

It is slow when nobody owns performance. WooCommerce runs on your hosting, so speed is a choice you make: caching, image handling, database hygiene and keeping the plugin count sane. We build with a performance budget and measure against Core Web Vitals rather than declaring it fast.

A straightforward store typically runs ฿50,000–120,000 for design, product setup, payments and shipping. Custom functionality, migration or back-office integration generally starts from ฿150,000–300,000. Hosting and any premium plugin licences are separate and paid directly to those providers.

WooCommerce if content and SEO matter as much as the shop, you want to own the platform outright, or you already run WordPress. Shopify if you would rather someone else handled hosting, security and PCI compliance and you want to be trading quickly. We build both and have no incentive to steer you.

Yes, and it is a common request. We audit the plugins, theme, performance and security first, then tell you honestly whether improving what you have or rebuilding is the better investment. Sometimes the answer is that a clean rebuild costs less than untangling what is there.

Thousands of products, yes, with the right hosting, indexing and query discipline. Tens of thousands with heavy attribute filtering is where Magento usually becomes the better tool, and we will say so rather than sell you a build that will struggle.

Yes, and with WooCommerce we recommend it. That means scheduled plugin and core updates, backups, uptime and security monitoring, and someone to call when something breaks. Given how quickly disclosed WordPress vulnerabilities get exploited, an unmaintained store is a genuine risk rather than a theoretical one.
