Hi dear all!
I would have a question for experts in the field of localisation: How much woud you normally charge per word for a localisation of a software? The relevant language combination is from English to German. Some price tips?


Kind regards,
Svetlana

Software, Doc and Help pricing May 9, 2019

Hello Svetlana,
In our business, we usually charge £0.09 GBP or €0.10 EUR per word – for software, documentation as well as help pages. If the client has a file format that we can’t process right away (which should rarely be the case), we would charge a surplus of £0.02 GBP per word for im- and exporting the file.
Hope this helps
