Online price calculator

Online price calculator: customers see the price and order on the spot.

Plenty of customers don't want to call just to find out a price. If they can see it on your site, for exactly what they want, ordering is easier and you get a complete request.

An online price calculator on your website is built for your business alone. At a cake shop, the customer picks the cake size, the number of tiers and the decoration, sees the price and sends the order. At a cleaning company, they enter square metres, rooms and extras and send a booking request. At a carpenter's, they choose dimensions and material and see a price range. At a photographer's, they put their own package together. You get everything by email or WhatsApp, with all the details and no back-and-forth.

Why it's worth it

Because “how much?” is the first question. If your site only says “call us”, some people go to someone who shows a price. The calculator answers at once, in the evening and on Sundays too.

Because the orders arrive complete. You don't have to ask for size, date, address and phone number one by one. The customer fills in everything in one place, and you see exactly what they want and the price they saw.

And because it saves you time. You stop working out the same quote ten times a day for people who are only browsing. Whoever sends an order already knows the price and means it.

Calculator, contact form or “call for a price”

All three are common. The difference is what the customer sees and what reaches you:

How it works

1. Your prices

You send me your price list and how you work out a quote, handwritten is fine.

2. The logic

We agree what the customer chooses, in what order and what details they send at the end.

3. Test

You place a few test orders from your phone and check every price.

4. Live

The calculator goes on your site and orders arrive by email or WhatsApp.

4 common mistakes with price calculators

Prices that don't match reality

If your site shows one price and you quote another on the phone, the customer stops trusting you. Enter real prices, with what each one includes. Where you can't know the exact price, show a range and say clearly what it depends on.

Too many questions

Every extra field is a reason to give up. Only ask for what changes the price or what you need to confirm the order. The small details can wait for a phone call once the order is in.

The calculator is hard to find

If it sits on a separate page with no visible button, few people reach it. Put it high on your home page, or a clear “Get a price” button on every screen. Add the link to your Google Business Profile and Facebook page too.

Slow replies to orders

The customer has sent the order and is waiting. If you reply three days later, they've already ordered somewhere else. Confirm orders the same day, even with a short WhatsApp message.

Frequently asked questions

What if my price depends on lots of things?

The calculator can show a range, for example “between €900 and €1,100”, with a note that the final price is confirmed after measuring. The customer knows what to expect, and you keep the final say.

Can I change prices later?

Yes. With the RAGANA Edit panel you change them yourself, from your phone too, and the calculator uses the new prices at once. The panel costs €299 and works together with monthly care.

Can customers pay in the calculator?

The calculator sends the order, and you agree payment with the customer: on collection, on delivery or by bank transfer. If you want card payments on your site, you need an online shop, from €1,999.

Can I try a working calculator?

Yes. There are live demos on my site, including a cake shop where you build a cake and see the price. Try it on your phone, just like a customer would.

I want online booking and a calculator. Is that possible?

One of the two is included in the package. If you need both, tell me at the start and you'll get a fixed price before I begin.

What exactly do I get when an order comes in?

An email or WhatsApp message with everything the customer chose, the price they saw, their name, phone number and preferred date. You can reply straight away without asking anything else.

Does it work for services, not just products?

Yes. For services the calculator usually sends a booking or quote request, for a cleaning job, a move or a photo shoot, for example. The customer sees the price and you confirm the date.
