Online store development in Tirana
Pluton Studio builds online stores for brands and retailers in Tirana: a catalogue, card and cash-on-delivery orders, and a fiscalised invoice for every order. A store goes live within 5 to 8 weeks, and the free written quote arrives within two working days.
- Cards and cash on deliveryBoth, whichever the customer prefers.
- A fiscalised invoiceFor every order, in real time.
- The details the law asks forNIPT, address and contact on every page.
From Instagram messages to your own store
Many businesses in Tirana sell through Instagram and Facebook messages today: the customer asks about the price, the size and delivery, and the order is kept by hand. That works until orders grow. Then messages get lost, stock stops matching and every order needs a conversation.
The buyers are already online: according to INSTAT, 45.4% of people aged 16 to 74 in Albania bought something online in 2025 (Monitor). A store answers the questions you now get in DMs on its own: price, sizes, stock and delivery cost are on the page, and the order arrives complete. Social media stays where people find you, the store is where they buy.
The 2026 rule for anyone selling online
Albania's law on tax procedures (No. 79/2025) requires anyone selling or offering services online to show their NIPT, name, address and phone number, even when they sell only on Instagram or Facebook. As accountants and the press explain it, the tax administration warns in writing, gives 15 days to fix it, and AKEP may then block the site temporarily (Bulevard, an accountant's summary).
In the stores we build, these details sit at the foot of every page from day one, together with what the law on electronic commerce asks for: the trade name, the registered address, an email, the registration details and final prices with delivery included. Your accountant confirms the obligations for your own case.
Order, payment and invoice in one flow
The store handles the order from start to finish, with nobody typing it twice:
- Cash on delivery, the simplest start, with no bank connection needed
- Card payments through the e-commerce gateway of your bank in Albania, with the policies and terms the bank checks before switching them on
- An invoice fiscalised in real time for every order, with an NIVF and a QR code, through the certified software you choose
- A phone notification for every new order
- Stock, variants and prices you change yourself
Examples from our work
The stores we show are live and you can open them. For Caffè Iuliano in Kosovo we built the store with the 3D espresso machine, cash-on-delivery orders and a panel that notifies the owner of every order. Vrull, Rruga and Xixa are our own brands, with stores built from scratch.

What it costs and how long it takes
You get the price of your store free of charge, as a fixed written quote within two working days of the first call; the number of products, payments and connections to your own software move it. The store goes live within 5 to 8 weeks, and product photos and descriptions affect the timeline. The quote and the invoice are in euros, half at the start and half at launch.
On top of the build come the running costs: the domain, the bank's card fees, the fiscalisation software and the courier. The 2026 card deadlines are in Albania's POS mandate, and the cost items of a site in Albania in how much a website costs in Albania.
What we put in writing
Pluton Studio writes these terms into every quote, so you know exactly what you get and when.
A reply within one working day
The engineer who will build your project answers every message, not a salesperson. The fixed written quote is free and follows within two working days of the first call.
A fixed price in writing
The quote lists everything included, and the price you sign is the price you pay. Any scope change is quoted separately, before work on it starts.
Delivery windows we keep
Business website: 3 to 5 weeks. Online store: 5 to 8 weeks. Web app or custom software: a first working version within 4 to 6 weeks, the rest on a written plan.
Design approved before we build
You approve the design on screen before any code is written. Two rounds of design revisions are included, plus small changes to text, photos and prices for 30 days after launch.
Payment in two halves
Half at the start, half at go-live. Larger projects split payment into three milestones tied to deliverables, and the quote says which schedule yours follows. We never ask for full payment up front.
Domain, accounts and content in your name
The domain and accounts are registered in your name from day one, and you can export your content at any time. No mandatory subscription.
A 30-day warranty and measured performance
Any defect found within 30 days of launch is fixed at no cost. The site ships within the performance budget set in the quote, with a Core Web Vitals report on your own domain and a lab test you can repeat yourself.
Frequently asked questions
How much does an online store in Tirana cost?
The number of products, payments and connections to your own software move the price, so we price your store specifically: tell us what you sell and within two working days you get a free, fixed written quote. The store goes live within 5 to 8 weeks; what raises the cost is in what an online store costs.
Do I need an online store if I sell on Instagram?
Once orders grow, yes: the store answers the questions about price, size and delivery on its own, and the order arrives complete. Instagram stays where people find you. Under the 2026 rule, even selling only there means showing your NIPT, name, address and phone number.
Can I start with cash on delivery only?
Yes, and it is the simplest start, because it needs no bank connection. These orders are fiscalised too, and how the cash the courier collects is recorded is something to settle with your accountant.
How do I accept card payments?
Through the e-commerce gateway of your bank in Albania. The bank checks the site before switching it on, so the policies, terms and payment page are ready at handover.
Do you have an office in Tirana?
No. Pluton Studio works from Prishtina, and projects with businesses in Tirana run online, over video calls and WhatsApp, in the same time zone. The quote and the invoice are in euros.
