A client portal is a web system where your customers see their orders, statuses, invoices and photos for each stage, while your managers work in their own panel. If you already have a design, the portal costs €1 500 based on your ready-made design; built from scratch without a ready-made design, it is a web system in the €3 000–5 000 range.
What a client portal is
A customer logs in and sees their own data. For a car or cargo importer, that means:
- Orders — all of the customer's orders in one place.
- Statuses — which stage each order is at right now.
- Invoices — invoices issued to the customer.
- Photos by stage — photos linked to the stages of an order.
The other half of the system is the manager panel, where your team works with customer orders.
What the portal is made of
- Server — where the system runs.
- Database — where orders, statuses, invoices and photos are stored.
- Login (authorisation) — so each customer gets into their own portal.
- Manager panel — your team's workspace.
How much a client portal costs
| Option | What's included | Price guide |
|---|---|---|
| Based on your ready-made design | Server, database, login, client portal and manager panel | €1 500 based on your ready-made design |
| From scratch, without a ready-made design | A web system: web admin panel with roles, reminders, requests and customers; a Telegram bot if needed | Within €3 000–5 000 |
€1 500 is the price only when the portal is built on your ready-made design. Without one, the portal is a full web system, like a CRM with a web admin panel, priced within €3 000–5 000. The levels are explained in “How much does a CRM cost”, and the full table is on our pricing page.
Important: €1 500 based on your ready-made design is not a “starting from” price but a guide for this option only. We quote the exact price once the task is clear.
How long development takes
There is no separate timeline for the portal. Our general guide for development to a specific task is up to a month; we give the exact timeline together with the price.

What we need to know to quote a price
- What to automate. What exactly the customer should see in the portal and what currently eats your team's time.
- How many people will use it. Your team and your customers: who works with the portal and in which roles.
- What to integrate with. Websites, email, other systems, Telegram: everything the portal needs to exchange data with.
- Industry. Car imports, cargo or another field, so we account for how your processes work.
- Timeline and budget. When you need the result and what amount you have in mind; if the budget isn't set yet, just say so.
For a portal, also tell us whether you have a ready-made design: the price depends on it.
Your own portal or a ready-made system
If you're unsure whether you need your own system, read “Custom vs ready-made CRM”. Client portals and CRMs built around your process are covered on our CRM, ERP and bots page.
