3. Daraz
One of the other reliable online shopping sites for Nepal is Daraz. It was launched in 2012 and acquired by Alibaba group in 2018. So it not only has a presence in Nepal but also in other South Asian countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Srilanka, and Burma. You can shop about 10 million products in more than 100+ categories with ease of purchase, excellent customer service, and hassle-free shopping and return experience.
4. Sastodeal
Sastodeal opened its eCommerce platform back in 2011, bootstrapped with just Rs.50,000 and now they are one of the trusted and popular online stores to come out of Nepal. You can buy/shop a wide variety of women/men in fashion, kids’ clothes, watches, shoes, electronics, jewelry, accessories, and beauty products. Sastodeal has been making the online shopping experience in Nepal quite a treat with their quality products, customer care, and multiple payment options from Visa Card or mobile wallets like eSewa, IME pay, and Khalti.
5. SmartDoko
Last but not least, Smartdoko is getting popular for online shopping sites for Nepal. You can shop/buy wide assortments of products across 500+ diverse categories consisting of national to global brands, Free Delivery Inside Ring Road, and Cash/Card on Delivery or Visa/MC. Keep an eye on their SmartDoko Coupon System that provides a range of offers & discounts.
If you are looking for more than just daily essentials or a rather a larger purchase, take a look at hamro bazaar. You can post a FREE Ad for your bike, mobile, house, etc & sell Directly to the Buyer. They also offer no fees / no commission structure.
Something worth mentioning is Nepal first’s food delivery: Foodmandu – Have to pay cash on delivery so if you want to order for someone in Nepal I don’t think you can pay via international CC although they recently release a Nepal debit card payment option.
Gajabko, OkDam, OldPinch, eSewapasal, Socheko, RaraMart, and Kaymu are some other online shopping sites for Nepal but I haven’t used them personally so can’t comment on them.
