Working with us from Australia

How it works
from Australia.

Time zones, contact and contracts, set out plainly.

01

Two ends of the day

Sydney is 9 to 11 hours ahead of London, depending on daylight saving at each end. Calls go at the edges of the day (early morning in London is late afternoon or evening in Sydney), and feedback you leave in the evening is with the London team at the start of their day.

02

Sydney office

Our Australian office is at 3 AMP Tower, 50 Bridge Street, Sydney NSW 2000, on AEST/AEDT. For Organic Response our team spent two weeks at the client's Melbourne head office to work out the first design concept.

03

You own it

An NDA on day one, the repository in your name from the first commit, and full ownership of code, designs and IP on payment.

Local requirements

Built for
Australia.

What changes when your users and data are in Australia. We design for these requirements; your counsel or auditor signs them off.

01

Accessibility

Built to WCAG 2.2 AA, the standard Australian organisations use to meet the Disability Discrimination Act.

02

Privacy Act

Forms, analytics and data handling designed for the Australian Privacy Principles and the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme.

03

Pricing display

E-commerce that shows GST-inclusive total prices, as the Australian Consumer Law requires.

04

Australian hosting

AWS Asia Pacific (Sydney) or Azure Australia East when data needs to stay onshore.

Process

From idea
to first release.

A checkpoint at every stage, and working software at a demo every week.

Step 01

Free working prototype

5 – 10 working days

A clickable prototype of your core idea, built from your brief before any paid engagement.

Step 02

Discovery

2 weeks · from £3,000

A senior Product Owner and Solution Architect fix scope, architecture, estimate and roadmap in writing.

Step 03

Design

2 – 3 weeks

UX and UI prototypes tested with real users before production code is written.

Step 04

Build

First release in 6 – 8 weeks

Two-week sprints, a demo every week and a shared board, so you see progress rather than status reports.

Step 05

Launch & support

Ongoing

Release, monitoring and testing on real devices and browsers, then maintenance and new features.

Frequently asked

The honest
questions.

Why choose Magora for web development in Australia?
Magora has built software since 2010 and shipped 150+ products, 97% of them on time, with a 4.9 rating on Clutch. Australian clients get the same senior team from kickoff to handover, working software at a demo every week, and code they own from the first commit.
Do you have an office in Australia?
Yes. Our Sydney office is at 3 AMP Tower, 50 Bridge Street, Sydney NSW 2000. Our headquarters and main engineering team are in London, and we also have an office in Miami.
How do you handle the time difference?
Sydney is 9 to 11 hours ahead of London, depending on daylight saving. Calls go where the days meet: early morning in London is late afternoon or evening in Sydney. Between calls, work runs on a shared board and written updates, so a day's feedback from Sydney reaches the London team at the start of their day.
How much does web development cost?
Developers start from £49/hour (about A$93) and a full team with QA and product ownership is £65–£70/hour (about A$124–133). Discovery starts from £3,000 (about A$5,700) and an MVP from £10,000 (about A$19,000), with the first release in 6–8 weeks. Prices are set in pounds sterling. Australian-dollar figures are approximate, at the ECB reference rate of 1 October 2026 (£1 = A$1.904). Use our cost calculator for a first estimate.
How long until the first release?
Usually 6–8 weeks for a first release. Before that comes a free working prototype in 5–10 working days and a two-week discovery that fixes scope, architecture and the estimate. Larger platforms take longer, and the discovery tells you how much longer in writing.
Which Australian rules should our web platforms be built for?
Built to WCAG 2.2 AA, the standard Australian organisations use to meet the Disability Discrimination Act. Forms, analytics and data handling designed for the Australian Privacy Principles and the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme. E-commerce that shows GST-inclusive total prices, as the Australian Consumer Law requires. We design for these requirements; we don't issue legal advice or certifications, so your counsel or auditor signs them off.
Do you design websites as well as build them?
Yes. A designer and a front-end developer work together from the first week: user research, wireframes, a design system and a clickable prototype that you test before production code is written. Then the same team builds, launches and supports the site.
Who owns the code and IP?
You do. Ownership of the bespoke code, designs and IP transfers to you on payment, the repository is yours from the first commit, and we sign an NDA on day one.
