mShop

Overview

Why organisations choose mShop

mShop is a ready-to-launch online marketplace for retailers, distributors and entrepreneurs who want to sell online, or let other vendors sell on their platform.

Customers browse categories and brands, compare product variations, save items to a wishlist, follow their favourite vendors and check out with M-Pesa STK Push. They then choose doorstep delivery or collection from a pick-up station and track every order status. The same experience is available on the website and the Android customer app, which share one secure API.

Behind the scenes, administrators manage vendors, products, variations and specifications, pricing and discounts, shipping methods, pick-up stations and station attendants, payments and order history, all with role-based access and audit trails.

“mShop let us start selling online in weeks instead of months. Customers pay with M-Pesa, pick up at the station nearest to them, and we track every order from one dashboard.”
