A sale should not arrive
as an email.
Cards, EFT and instant transfer that clear in South Africa, wired into the system that has to know about the order. Otherwise every sale ends its life as a notification somebody still has to retype at the end of the day.
Everything between the button and the bank.
A store is four things that have to agree with each other: the payment, the stock, the delivery and the paperwork.
What is in a store
- Payments
- Cards, EFT and instant transfer through a South African gateway, so the money lands in a local account, in rand.
- Checkout
- Short, and it works on a phone, because that is where most of your customers are standing when they decide.
- Products
- Yours to add, price and change yourself, at no extra cost.
- Stock and orders
- Orders and stock kept in one place, so you can see which orders still have to ship.
- Delivery
- Rates and areas set up the way you actually ship.
- Paperwork
- Receipts and invoices that send themselves, in a form your accountant recognises.
- Search
- Product pages that can be found on their own, so a search for a product can land straight on its page.
- Ownership
- You own the store, the customer list and the payment account. Nothing sits in our name.
How a store goes up
-
Scope
We go through what you sell, how you ship it, and who has to know the moment an order lands. The price is agreed before anything starts.
-
Build
Store, checkout and payments, with the gateway in test mode so we can push a hundred fake orders through it before you see one.
-
Before it goes live
Before launch we put a real card through for a real amount, then refund it.
-
Ongoing
Stock, prices and products stay yours to change. The platform underneath stays ours to look after.
The ticketing platform behind eventu.co.za was built this way.
What a ticket does after they pay.
- The seat comes off the count the moment they start, and goes back on if they walk away, so it is never sold twice.

EventU
A ticketing platform built from nothing: events, tickets, payouts and an organiser's own dashboard, with its pricing published on its own page. It is new, and it has not sold a ticket yet.

South African gateways
Cards, EFT and instant transfer, integrated on client work. The merchant account is yours and the money goes to your bank, never through ours.
