Web Development Company in Nepal

Websites and apps built for how Nepal actually shops, pays and connects.

MeetOnChai Studio is a web development company in Nepal working with businesses across the country, not just inside the Ring Road. We build websites, online stores and apps that take eSewa and Khalti, load on patchy mobile data, and handle delivery to cities like Itahari, Dharan and Biratnagar. Everything is done remotely, so where you are in Nepal doesn't change what you get.

Why MeetOnChai for Nepal

Reasons clients pick us.

  1. 01

    Outside the Valley is not an afterthought

    We've built delivery zones for Itahari, Dharan, Biratnagar and Inaruwa into a live store. A business in Pokhara or Butwal gets the same team and process as one in Lalitpur.

  2. 02

    Local payments done properly

    eSewa and Khalti integrated and tested end to end, including failed and abandoned payments. Cash on delivery and WhatsApp ordering stay first-class options, because plenty of customers still prefer them.

  3. 03

    Built for mobile data, not office fibre

    Most of your customers will open the site on a phone, often on a slow connection. We build lightweight, mobile-first pages and test them that way.

  4. 04

    Diaspora customers in mind

    A lot of online orders in Nepal are placed from abroad by people sending something home. Delivery dates, time slots and clear city coverage matter more to them than fancy animation.

  5. 05

    Honest about platforms

    Not every business needs a custom build. When WooCommerce gets you live faster and cheaper, we'll say so and build it properly.

Selling online in Nepal has its own rules

Templates designed for Western markets assume card payments, predictable addresses and customers who never want to talk to a human. Nepal runs differently. Wallets like eSewa and Khalti carry a lot of the load, cash on delivery is still expected for many orders, and a WhatsApp chat is often the moment a buyer decides to trust you.

We design around those habits instead of fighting them. On Giftkdiu, for example, the checkout takes eSewa and Khalti, lets the customer pick a delivery date and time slot, and keeps WhatsApp ordering as a real path for people who'd rather ask first.

Working with us from anywhere in Nepal

You don't need to travel to Kathmandu to start a project. We run everything through video calls, WhatsApp and a shared preview link that updates every sprint, so a shop owner in Dharan sees progress at the same moment we do.

We write decisions down as we go. When you're running a business and only have time to check in once a day, a clear written update beats a long call.

Reaching buyers beyond Nepal

Some Nepali businesses sell to the world: handicrafts, herbs, tea, apparel. WS Nepal is a B2B marketplace built for exactly that, connecting outside buyers with verified Nepali suppliers. If your customers are abroad, we plan international payments, English-first copy and search visibility outside Nepal from the start.

FAQ

Working with us from Nepal.

Do you work with businesses outside Kathmandu?

Yes. We work remotely with businesses across Nepal, and we've built city-based delivery for Itahari, Dharan, Biratnagar and Inaruwa into a live store. Calls, WhatsApp and a shared preview link cover everything a site visit would.

Can you integrate eSewa, Khalti and cash on delivery?

Yes. We've shipped stores that take eSewa and Khalti alongside cash on delivery and WhatsApp orders. We test success, failure and cancelled payments before launch, because those are where real orders get lost.

Should my Nepali store use WooCommerce or a custom build?

If you sell standard products with a standard checkout, WooCommerce is usually cheaper to build and run. If your ordering flow is unusual, like delivery slots by city or combo builders, a custom build often pays off. We'll recommend one on the first call.

Will the site work on slow mobile connections?

That's the default we design for. We build mobile-first, keep pages light and optimise images, then test on real phones rather than only a fast laptop.

How do you price projects for Nepali businesses?

We offer fixed-price projects for well-defined scopes and time and materials for evolving products. After a short discovery call you get a written scope with what's in, what's out and the price, before any work starts.
