Free, Pay As You Go & Team: which plan fits?

Start free—upgrade when the limits bite, not before. Pay-as-you-go (PAYG) is the solo paid plan: buy credits, pay per sale, and unlock unlimited sales for the month once you hit the KES 500 spend cap. Need staff on more gadgets? Team at KES 1,000.

FREE — solo, learning the habit

Best for: Owner-only shops testing digital records.

  • Limited sales volume (enough to prove the workflow)
  • Basic sales and expense tracking
  • No M-Pesa at checkout, no barcode scanner, no advanced reports
  • One device, one owner

Stay on Free until you hit the cap or need M-Pesa recording at checkout.

PAY-AS-YOU-GO — solo paid

Best for: Owner-only shops that want M-Pesa, scanning, and reports without a fixed Team bill.

  • Buy credits and pay per sale (1 credit = KES 0.20)
  • Starter from about KES 50 when joining
  • Monthly credit spend/purchase caps at KES 500—then unlimited sales for the rest of the month
  • M-Pesa at checkout, barcode scanner, advanced reports, Market shop link
  • One device, one owner

See our PAYG credits guide for how credits and the monthly cap work.

  3. Two or more people selling? Team
  4. Desktop POS lanes? Desktop Starter / Store / Enterprise
