Simple, Honest Pricing

Pricing depends on complexity, number of pages, design requirements, custom features, and timeline. All quotes are fully transparent. We walk you through every line item. No hidden fees, ever.

Absolutely. The packages are starting points, not rigid boxes. If you need 8 pages with a blog and M-Pesa integration but not SEO, we build exactly that. Tell us what you need and we quote accordingly.

Yes, 50% upfront to begin work, 50% on delivery and approval. For larger projects we can arrange milestone-based payments. We accept M-Pesa, Paystack (cards/mobile money), and cryptocurrency.

Starter site: 3-7 days. Business site: 1-2 weeks. E-Commerce: 2-4 weeks. Complex custom web apps: 4-8 weeks. Timelines depend on how quickly you provide content, feedback, and approvals.

100%. Every site we build is mobile-first. We design for phones first, then scale up to tablets and desktops. We test on real devices before delivery.

Yes, our managed hosting ($29/month) covers server setup, SSL, daily backups, uptime monitoring, and monthly maintenance. You can also host elsewhere and we deploy for you.

We build with PHP, MySQL, HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. No page builders or WordPress. Everything is clean, custom, hand-coded for performance.

Yes. Send us your current site and we will audit it, identify what is working, and redesign it while preserving your brand identity and SEO rankings where possible.

M-Pesa (Kenya), Paystack (cards, bank transfer, mobile money, NGN, GHS, ZAR, KES, USD and more), and cryptocurrency via NOWPayments (BTC, ETH, USDT, BNB and 60+ coins). All payments are secure.

For large projects (above $2,000) we can arrange up to 3 milestone payments. Typically 40% to start, 40% at midpoint, 20% on delivery. Contact us to discuss your project budget.

We do not offer refunds once development has started. However, we offer unlimited revisions within the agreed scope until you are satisfied. If we cannot deliver what was agreed, we refund proportionally.

Courses are no longer bought one at a time. Your plan decides what you can open: Free gives you the fundamentals courses in full, and Pro or Lifetime unlocks the entire library plus Playground Pro. Cancel whenever you like. Your access runs to the end of the period you already paid for, and any course you bought individually in the past stays yours permanently.
