Pasalos vs Blanxer: an honest comparison
An honest comparison of the two local e-commerce builders in Nepal: comparing plans in NPR, eSewa and Khalti integrations, and POS setups.

Both Pasalos and Blanxer are built specifically for merchants selling in Nepal. Unlike global platforms like Shopify or WooCommerce, both platforms understand the reality of local commerce: you need eSewa/Khalti checkout, delivery pricing by zone, and billing in Nepali Rupees.
Their pricing models, support scopes, and technical designs differ. The sections below compare those differences directly.
The short version
Both platforms include wallet integrations for Nepal. The main difference for most sellers is pricing flexibility: how you're billed and how much you commit upfront.
Blanxer requires a yearly subscription commitment upfront (starting at रु 24,000/year) but does ship a dedicated mobile app for managing your store today. Pasalos lets you pay monthly, starting at रु 1,499/month, with no yearly commitment; its merchant dashboard is a mobile-friendly website rather than a native app right now.
Subscription Pricing: Monthly vs. Yearly
Running a business means managing cash flow, and how your software bills you matters.
- Pasalos offers true monthly billing. You can start on the Starter plan at रु 1,499/month and cancel or upgrade anytime. There are no contracts and no hidden setup fees.
- Blanxer bills exclusively on a yearly cycle. As of July 2026, their plans are:
- Basic: रु 24,000/year (equivalent to रु 2,000/month)
- Premium: रु 28,000/year (equivalent to रु 2,333/month)
- Business Plus: रु 38,000/year (equivalent to रु 3,166/month)
While Blanxer offers a 15-day free trial to test their dashboard, launching a live store requires paying for a full year upfront. If you are a new seller testing a product idea, Pasalos offers a much lower barrier to entry.
Managing Your Store From Your Phone
Being mobile-first is critical in a country where most internet traffic runs on smartphones, and this is a genuine point in Blanxer's favor today.
- Blanxer offers a dedicated mobile app for store management: uploading products, tracking sales, and running day-to-day operations from your phone.
- Pasalos does not have a native merchant app yet. The admin dashboard is a mobile-friendly website, which covers the same tasks in a browser but isn't a dedicated app. Pasalos is also building a separate, customer-facing shopping app so your buyers can browse and reorder from your store. That's a different product, and it's coming soon, not shipped.
If running your whole business from a native app matters to you right now, Blanxer has it built; if you're comfortable with a mobile browser in the meantime, Pasalos's monthly billing and local checkout still cover the rest.
POS and Inventory Management
Most online sellers in Nepal also run physical stores in places like New Road, Ranjana Galli, or local neighborhoods. Both platforms offer tools to keep your physical counter and your online store in sync.
- Blanxer features an integrated Point of Sale (POS) and inventory system that syncs stock in real-time across your website and physical store. It allows you to generate bills at the counter and track payments.
- Pasalos is rolling out its POS now, with founding stores getting it first. It shares one inventory between your physical pasal and online storefront: a counter sale updates your online availability, and an online checkout reserves stock so the shop floor can't oversell it. If you need a live POS today, Blanxer has it shipped; if you can start online-first, the Pasalos POS lands on the same shared stock list.
Local Payments Integration
Both platforms represent a significant upgrade over Shopify or custom websites because they handle local payments natively.
- Both platforms include eSewa, Khalti, Fonepay QR, and connectIPS in checkout.
- Both platforms allow you to easily toggle Cash on Delivery (COD) options for customers who prefer to pay upon arrival.

Bottom line
Choose Pasalos if you need monthly billing from रु 1,499 and don't want a yearly commitment, and you're fine running your store from a mobile browser for now.
Choose Blanxer if a dedicated mobile app for store management matters to you today and you're comfortable committing to a yearly subscription upfront.
