So how much does it cost to build an app? Unfortunately there is no straight answer because every app is different. The popularly-accepted average internationally for an app is about $10,000 or R140,000. But we have built apps for just R5,000.
There are several types of apps that we are frequently asked to quote on or build. Whilst every app has to be quoted for individually, below you will find some of the most common types of app with their requirements and approximate costs. Please note that these may exclude hosting and third party license costs if applicable.
