Title card: How Much Does a Website Cost in Gibraltar?

Updated: 11 October, 2026

A professional website for a Gibraltar business usually costs between £1,500 and £4,500 to build, plus hosting of around £25 to £30 a month. Where you land in that range depends on what the site has to do: a few pages that bring in enquiries cost far less than a shop that takes payments or a system that takes bookings. This guide sets out the website cost in Gibraltar with real prices from our own packages, the running costs people often forget, and the questions to ask before you pay anyone.

The short answer: our prices

These are the prices we charge Gibraltar businesses in 2026. Gibraltar has no VAT, so there is nothing to add on top.

  • Simple website, £1,500. A handful of well-designed pages (home, services, about, contact) for a business that mainly needs to look credible and bring in enquiries.

  • Content-managed website, £2,000. The same, plus a login so you can change text, photos, prices and news yourself without paying for every update.

  • Website with a booking system, £2,500. For restaurants, salons, clinics, tours and anyone who takes appointments or reservations online.

  • Online shop, £4,000. Card payments, stock, delivery options and order emails, so you can sell to customers in Gibraltar and further afield.

  • Bespoke projects, from £4,500. Client portals, integrations with other systems and anything that doesn't fit a package. These are quoted after we've scoped them.

You'll find each package compared side by side on our web design in Gibraltar page.

What pushes the price up or down

Two websites can look similar and cost very different amounts. These are the things that make the biggest difference.

What the site has to do

Showing information is the cheapest job a website can do. Each thing visitors can do on the site, such as booking, paying, logging in or filtering a catalogue, adds design, building and testing time. Being clear about the jobs your site must do is the best way to keep the price down.

How many page types you need

Ten service pages built from the same layout cost less than ten pages that each need their own design. Count the different kinds of page you need, not just the total.

Words and photos

Content is the part most often underestimated. If your wording and photos are ready, projects move quickly. If they need writing or taking from scratch, allow for that in the budget and the timetable. Your own photos of your premises, team and work almost always beat stock images.

Connections to other systems

Linking your site to a booking platform, a stock system, an accounting package or a property feed is where costs can grow quickly, because every system works differently. These links are normally quoted individually.

Languages

Many Gibraltar businesses serve customers from across the border. A Spanish version means a second set of pages, written for Spanish searches rather than translated word for word. We can write the Spanish pages for you; ask for this in your quote.

The running costs people forget

The build is a one-off. These costs come every month or every year.

  • Hosting. Our hosting is £25 a month for simple and content-managed sites and £30 a month for booking systems and shops. It includes security updates, backups and two email addresses on your domain. Cheap hosting often leaves updates and backups to you, which is fine until something breaks.

  • Your domain name. A .com costs a few pounds a year. A .gi or .com.gi costs considerably more, and only businesses registered in Gibraltar can hold one, but it tells visitors at a glance that you're local.

  • Email. Addresses on your own domain look more professional than a free webmail account. Two are included with our hosting; extra addresses are a small monthly charge.

  • Payment fees. An online shop pays a percentage of each sale to the payment provider. Stripe, for example, accepts businesses based in Gibraltar.

  • Changes after launch. On a content-managed site you can make most changes yourself. On a simple site, ask what small changes cost before you sign.

Cheaper options, and what you give up

You'll find published prices from a few hundred pounds for small template sites, and website builders that charge a monthly subscription. They can be the right choice for a hobby or a very new business. Before choosing one, check:

  • Who does the work? With a builder, you do. Writing, layout, photos and updates take longer than most people expect.

  • What happens after launch? A cheap build with no updates, backups or support can cost more later than a properly looked-after site.

  • Can you take it with you? Some builders and agencies make it hard to move your site or domain. Make sure the domain is registered in your name.

  • Is it built for Google? Speed on mobile, page titles, a sitemap and Search Console are basics, not extras; ongoing SEO builds on them.

Costs that are specific to Gibraltar

A few things work differently here, and a good quote should take them into account.

  • No VAT. Prices from a Gibraltar business don't carry VAT. Quotes from businesses in the UK or Spain may include it, so compare like with like.

  • Data protection. Gibraltar has its own data protection law, supervised by the Gibraltar Regulatory Authority. Your site needs a privacy notice and cookie consent that fit how you use personal data; we set these up, and your adviser should check the wording.

  • Customers on both sides of the frontier. If you serve the Campo de Gibraltar, your site may need Spanish pages, prices in euros as well as pounds, and directions that make sense from La Línea.

  • Local domain. As above, a .gi domain is only open to Gibraltar-registered businesses and costs more than a .com.

How long a website takes

A simple website usually takes two to three weeks from the first conversation to launch. Booking systems and online shops usually take six to eight weeks. The biggest single factor is how quickly the wording and photos are ready, so gathering them early saves time and money.

Three example budgets

These are typical business types, not real clients, to show how the packages fit.

  1. A Main Street café. Menu, opening hours, photos and table bookings: a website with a booking system at £2,500, plus £30 a month hosting.

  2. A law or accountancy firm. Services, team profiles, articles and a contact form, updated by the firm: a content-managed website at £2,000, plus £25 a month hosting.

  3. A shop selling online. A catalogue with card payments and delivery to Gibraltar and Spain: an online shop at £4,000, plus £30 a month hosting and the payment provider's fees.

How to get an accurate quote

The more a designer knows, the more accurate the price. Before asking for quotes, write down:

  • What the site must do. Enquiries, bookings, payments or something else.

  • The pages you need. A rough list is enough.

  • Who writes the words and takes the photos. You, us, or a mix.

  • Systems it must connect to. Booking platforms, stock systems or feeds.

  • Languages. English only, or Spanish too.

  • Your deadline. And whether it's fixed, such as a launch or the summer season.

Send that to two or three designers and compare what each quote includes, not just the total. When you're ready, request a quote and we'll come back with a clear price.

Frequently asked questions

Is there VAT on website prices in Gibraltar?

No. Gibraltar has no VAT, so the prices above are what you pay. Quotes from UK or Spanish businesses may add VAT or IVA.

Do I need a .gi domain?

No, but it signals that you're a local business. Only businesses registered in Gibraltar can hold one, and it costs more each year than a .com.

Can I update the website myself?

Yes, with a content-managed website (from £2,000). You log in and change text, photos and prices without calling us.

Do you charge in euros for businesses in Spain?

Yes. Our Spanish location pages, such as web design in Marbella, show prices in euros.

What's included in the monthly hosting?

Security updates, backups and two email addresses on your domain. It's £25 a month for simple and content-managed sites and £30 for booking systems and shops.
