Pay-as-you-go credits

Pay-as-you-go (PAYG) is the solo paid plan: buy credits and pay per sale. After KES 500 credit spend on sales in a calendar month, unlimited sales unlock for the rest of that month. Need staff? Upgrade to Team (KES 1,000).

How credits work

  • 1 credit = KES 0.20
  • Starter: about KES 50 when joining gives credits to begin selling
  • Credits roll over; top up via M-Pesa when balance runs low
  • Monthly spend/purchase cap: KES 500 — then unlimited sales until month end
  • Same solo counter features: M-Pesa checkout, barcode, reports, Market shop link

When Team fits instead

  • You need more than one gadget/user at the counter
  • You want staff invites, branches, and directory listing
  • Predictable KES 1,000/month is simpler than watching credits
