Don't settle for a website builder
when Africa needs a Commerce OS.
Twelve things every African seller should demand from the platform they bet their business on. We built every single one — because the global "world-class" tools weren't built for the way we actually trade.
Things you can't fake in a quarter.
These took us two years and roots in five countries to build. They're the reason African sellers move to Ubuntu BizBox — and stay.
African payments, native
Every African rail, on day one — not as a phase 2.
M-Pesa Till. Paystack. Wave. Orange Money. CMI. EFT screenshots. Cash on delivery. Built directly into checkout, not bolted on through a marketplace plugin. We spent two years and built relationships with telcos and banks in five countries so you don't have to.
Multi-country at launch
Five languages. Five currencies. Five markets. Live today.
English, Français, Kiswahili, العربية (right-to-left), isiZulu — at full parity. ZAR, KES, NGN, XOF, MAD with live exchange rates. Per-market landing pages with the payment methods your buyers already use. The continent isn't one market and we don't pretend it is.
Partner network = distribution
A rev-share network that actually pays — 25% to 35%, lifetime.
Agencies, web designers, township ICT shops and freelance developers across the continent build on us and earn 25%–35% commission on every store they sell, plus 10% lifetime on every monthly subscription. That's a sales force we don't have to fund — and a margin global builders can't match.
WhatsApp-first commerce
Where your customer already shops — not where you wish they shopped.
African buyers DM you on WhatsApp. They don't fill out checkout forms on a desktop. So we built the checkout *into* WhatsApp: tap a product, confirm with one button, the order lands in your CRM. Recovery flows for abandoned carts. Broadcasts to your contact list. The way commerce actually works here.
Run this against any platform you're evaluating.
You don't have to take our word for it. Take this checklist to any global builder and count the green ticks.
"Generic global builder" = the kind of website tool designed for credit-card buyers on fast fibre in California or London. We're not naming names. You know the ones.
