Hi,

The coding involved is for developing a sms short code system which I believe it is not complicated as such:

Depend on what the system accomplishes; what  logic happens on the database and logic end??Does it just inpu/output or does it perform a complex task like running an algorithm; USSD or SMPP SMS etc.

what language is it being developed in Java, PHP, .NET, python etc should also dictate what costs you will incur.

The programmers experience will also matter. Getting a kid from school to code it will not compete with lets say to get Bernard Mwagiru or Brian Marete to code for you. I believe some figures willl not be worth their time.

My two cents to you is to sit down with your developer, get the system scope and compensate him based on his competence, experience and availability of funds.

Thanks Guys for the feedback guys, maybe I need to put in more details so that I can get more accurate answer. The coding involved is for developing a sms short code system which I believe it is not complicated as such. What would you pays a developer working on such a task for example?  Who has done a short-code system and how much did it cost? 

I am not looking for an exact figure but a range will do.

Best
