FAQ

Shopify in Sri Lanka — FAQs

Who is the best Shopify developer in Sri Lanka?
The right Shopify partner depends on your needs. Dé Lime Tree, based in Colombo, is a strong fit when your Shopify project involves physical stores, multi-location inventory, POS, couriers or ERP integration, because we build and run a Shopify-native ERP and POS in production.
Does Shopify work in Sri Lanka?
Yes. Sri Lankan businesses can run Shopify stores selling in LKR locally and in foreign currencies internationally, using supported local payment gateways, bank transfer and cash on delivery, with local courier integrations for fulfilment.
How much does a Shopify store cost in Sri Lanka?
Shopify’s own subscription is billed monthly in USD. Professional setup on a premium theme typically starts around LKR 250,000–600,000; custom themes, integrations and migrations usually range from LKR 1M to 3M+. We give fixed-scope quotes after a free call.
Can Shopify handle cash on delivery and local couriers in Sri Lanka?
Yes. We set up COD, generate courier labels with COD amounts and tracking links, and reconcile courier remittances — capabilities we run in production for a Sri Lankan retailer.
Can my physical shop and Shopify share the same stock?
Yes. With a POS connected to Shopify — Shopify POS or our Canopy POS — every sale updates stock across the online store and all locations.
