FOR LICENSED DISPENSARY OWNERS BUILDING OR REBUILDING A SITE
Dispensary website builder and cannabis website builder prices, from a $12 site to a $950 storefront
The short answer
A dispensary website is two products sold as one: the site itself (pages, hours, location, search visibility) and the live menu that has to match your register. General website builders host the site cheaply, reported at about $12 to $46 a month, but their payment tools refuse THC sales. Cannabis website builders bundle the menu, ordering and POS sync, and the only one that publishes a rate card, Tymber, lists $450 to $950 a month per location plus $450 to $3,450 setup. For most single stores the better buy is a general builder on your own domain plus the menu your POS or ordering vendor already includes.

Three years on Tymber Basic for one store, setup included, before any agency work
Owners usually start shopping for a dispensary website builder for one of three reasons. The site was built by a nephew in 2019 and nobody can edit it, the menu on it is an iframe that keeps showing sold-out strains, or the POS vendor is retiring the ecommerce product the site depends on. Then the quotes arrive from a cannabis ecommerce platform, a web agency and a general builder, and none of them price the same thing.
This page separates the two products, prices each one from the sources that actually publish numbers, and works out what each route costs over three years for one store. We are a directory for state-licensed dispensaries. We do not sell websites and take no referral fee from any platform named here, which is why we can say where the cheap option is the right one.
Why it works
What a dispensary website has to do before design matters
Show a menu that matches the shelf
The menu has to sync from your POS, ideally in real time. A pretty site with a menu that sells out-of-stock flower costs you more in angry pickups than it earns.
Live on your own domain
Menu pages hosted on a vendor domain or inside an iframe build the vendor's search visibility, not yours, and they do not move with you when you switch platforms.
Gate by age
A 21+ age confirmation for adult use (18+ for some medical programs) is expected by every state regulator and by the platforms that host you. Every serious builder ships one.
Follow state advertising rules
Your site is advertising in most states. No health claims, no appeal to minors, required warnings in some markets. Copy that ignores this is a licensing problem, not a design one.
Take payment the legal way
Card checkout through Stripe, Wix Payments or similar is off the table for THC. Pay at pickup, ACH pay by bank or a cannabis payments rail are the realistic options.
Load fast on a phone
Most dispensary searches happen on a phone, often in a parked car. A heavy theme and a slow embedded menu lose the customer to the store one block away.
How it works
Four steps, in the order that actually pays
Check what your POS already includes
Many POS and ordering vendors include an embeddable menu or a storefront. If yours does, you are only buying the site around it, which is the cheap half.
Decide where the menu URL lives
Ask every vendor one question in writing: will the product pages sit on my root domain, a subdomain, or yours? The answer decides who owns the search traffic.
Price three years, not one month
Add setup, monthly fees for 36 months and any order caps. Tymber Basic is $16,650 over three years. A general builder with an embedded menu can be under $2,000.
Launch with your listings, not after
A new site is invisible for weeks. Claim your Google Business Profile and a licensed directory listing the same day so customers find you while the site earns its rankings.

The numbers
Dispensary website builders and cannabis website platforms compared on price, domain and fit
| Platform | What it is | Price | Who published the price | Where your menu lives | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tymber (owned by BLAZE) | Cannabis ecommerce website with menu, ordering, delivery menus and POS integrations | Basic $450, Plus $750, Premium $950 a month per location, setup $450, $1,450 or $3,450 | Tymber, on its own pricing page | Basic deploys to a subdomain, Plus and Premium to your root domain | Delivery-heavy and multi-location operators who want one storefront vendor |
| BLAZE Sites | Cannabis website builder (CMS) with templates, hosting and multi-location menus, launched April 2025 | Not published | Nobody. Demo only | Hosted by BLAZE, ask about the domain in writing | Stores already on BLAZE POS |
| Dutchie E-Commerce Pro | Storefront for Dutchie POS stores, the migration path from Dutchie Plus | About $499 to $1,000 a month per location | Third parties. Dutchie publishes no rate card | Ask, it varies by build and certified partner | Dutchie POS stores facing the Dutchie Plus sunset |
| Jane, with Roots for custom builds | Online menu and ordering, with a headless option for a custom site | About $1 per completed online order | Third parties. Jane publishes no rate card | Roots builds can sit on your own domain | Stores with modest online order volume |
| General builder (WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, GoDaddy) | The site itself, with your POS or ordering vendor's menu embedded | About $12 to $46 a month | TRUiC, reporting GoDaddy plans | Your domain for pages, the vendor's embed for the menu unless it supports your domain | Single stores whose POS already includes a menu |
| Agency custom build | A designed site, usually on WordPress, with menu integration and age gate | About $5,000 to $10,000 for a typical new business site, more for custom work | Flowhub, a POS vendor, in its own guide | Your domain, if the contract says so | Brands with several stores and a marketing budget |
Prices read in October 2026. Only Tymber publishes a dispensary website builder rate card. Every other figure is reported, and the sources that report them often sell in this market, so treat them as budget ranges and get written quotes.

What is the best website builder for a dispensary?
The best website builder for a single dispensary is usually a general builder or WordPress on your own domain, with the live menu your POS or ordering vendor already provides embedded in it. A cannabis website builder such as Tymber or BLAZE Sites earns its higher price when you run delivery, several locations, or want one vendor responsible for the whole storefront.
The reason is simple arithmetic. The expensive and difficult part of a dispensary website is the menu that syncs with your register, and most POS and ordering vendors already sell or include one. Paying a cannabis builder $450 or more a month for a second menu layer only makes sense if it does something yours cannot, such as zone-based delivery menus, a native app or order volume your current vendor charges heavily for.
Be wary of any vendor that cannot tell you, in one sentence, which domain your product pages will live on. That single answer matters more than the template gallery.
How much does a dispensary website cost?
A dispensary website costs anywhere from about $12 a month for a general builder plan to $950 a month per location on Tymber's top published plan, plus setup of $450 to $3,450. An agency build typically adds $5,000 to $10,000 up front. Over three years, the spread for one store runs from under $2,000 to almost $38,000.
Here is the three-year arithmetic for one location, using only the published Tymber card and the reported builder range. Tymber Basic is $450 a month for 36 months plus $450 setup, $16,650 in total. Tymber Plus is $750 a month plus $1,450 setup, $28,450. Tymber Premium is $950 a month plus $3,450 setup, $37,650. A general builder at $46 a month is $1,656, before the menu.
The menu is what closes or widens that gap. If your POS includes an embeddable menu, the general builder route stays near $2,000. If you buy ordering separately at about $1 per completed order, 300 online orders a month adds roughly $10,800 over three years, still well under Tymber Basic. Above about 450 to 500 online orders a month, a flat monthly storefront starts to win on price, which is the same crossover we work through on our dispensary menu software page.
Can you build a dispensary website on Wix, Squarespace or Shopify?
You can host an informational dispensary website on a general builder, but you cannot take card payment for THC through their built-in payment tools. Wix's own help center lists cannabis dispensaries and related businesses as prohibited for Wix Payments. Squarespace payments run through Stripe, which prohibits cannabis sellers. Shopify's acceptable use policy bars anything illegal where you do business.
That leaves a workable pattern: use the builder for pages, hours, location, deals and blog content, and embed your POS or ordering vendor's menu for products, with payment taken at pickup or through a cannabis payments rail. Plenty of licensed stores run exactly this setup.
There is a real risk to price in. Trade press has reported Squarespace suspending payments for a New York cannabis brand that sold only apparel, without warning. A site that depends on one hosted platform can be switched off on that platform's schedule. Self-hosted WordPress on a host that accepts cannabis clients gives you the most control, at the cost of maintaining it yourself or paying someone to.
Should your dispensary menu be an iframe or on your own domain?
Your dispensary menu should live on your own domain whenever you can afford it. Product pages inside an iframe or on a vendor domain are indexed, if at all, as the vendor's content, so the search traffic for every strain and brand you carry accrues to them and stays with them when you leave.
Vendors know this and price it. Tymber's published card is the clearest example in the category: its $450 Basic plan deploys to a subdomain, and root domain deployment starts at the $750 Plus plan. Jane promotes Roots for custom builds on your own site, and Dispense, from Alpine IQ, says its menu lives on your domain. Ask every vendor the same question and get the answer in the contract.
An iframe menu is not a disaster for a small store. It still works for customers, and your home page, location page and Google Business Profile carry most of your local search visibility. It becomes expensive at scale, when hundreds of product pages could be ranking for your brand and are not.
What does a dispensary website need to be compliant?
A compliant dispensary website needs an age gate (21+ for adult use, 18+ in some medical programs), no health or therapeutic claims, nothing that appeals to minors, the license number where your state requires it, and any warnings your state mandates for advertising. Your website counts as advertising under most state rules.
The rules differ by state in ways that matter for copy. Some require specific warning language, some restrict prices or discounts in advertising, and a few limit how products can be pictured. Our cannabis advertising laws by state page summarizes the rules your site has to follow before a designer writes a word.
Accessibility is the other line item. Retail websites are a common target of accessibility demand letters in the US, and an online menu that a screen reader cannot use is an easy target. Ask any builder or agency which accessibility standard they build to.
Do you need online ordering on a dispensary website?
You need online ordering if a meaningful share of your customers already order ahead, or if competitors within a few miles offer it. For most adult-use stores in competitive markets that is now the case. A menu-only site loses the customer who wants to reserve before driving over.
Online ordering does not have to come from your website builder. It usually comes from your POS or an ordering vendor, and the website simply hosts it. Our comparison of the best dispensary online ordering systems prices the main options and shows where per-order billing beats a flat subscription.
How do customers find a new dispensary website?
Customers find a new dispensary website mostly through Google Maps, directory listings and branded searches, not through the site ranking on its own in its first months. A new domain takes weeks to months to earn local rankings, so the site should launch alongside a verified Google Business Profile and directory listings that link to it.
Paid search is largely closed to licensed THC retailers, so this organic layer is most of your visibility. Our dispensary SEO guide covers the on-site work, and a verified listing on our licensed dispensary directory puts your store, hours and menu link in front of local shoppers from the day the site goes live.
