How it works
Five steps, start to finish
Each step is built for the billing counter, not a back office.
- 01
Under 8 seconds
Take the number
Staff type the number on a big keypad and tap once for consent. The consent line is read out in the language your counter uses, so it is understood.
Keeps working when the internet drops
- 02
Yours alone
Build your own list
The number joins your shop’s own list. No other shop can see it and nobody else can message it. Sort by who came recently, or by the labels you add.
No other shop can see your customers
- 03
From your shop number
Send the news
New stock, a festival offer, a sale. Sent from your own verified WhatsApp Business number, the official way, so customers know who it is from and your number stays safe.
Meta bills you directly, and we add nothing
- 04
No app to install
They tap and look
The message links to your own shop page. It opens straight on their phone with your photos, your prices and what is in stock right now.
Built to open on a slow connection
- 05
Sent · read · tapped
See what happened
One screen on your phone tells you how many were sent, how many reached, how many were read, and how many tapped through to your shop.
A tap is only counted when someone really tapped
Built for the counter, not the back office
No desktop computer and no separate login for staff. A shared phone or tablet at the counter is enough, and billing does not slow down.

What would this look like in your shop?
The fee depends on which parts you use, so it is quoted per shop. Send us a few details and we will come back on WhatsApp with a number.
