Run shop credit
without the notebook chaos.

The daily reality

Notebooks, arguments, and missing stock.

Most neighbourhood credit still lives in paper, memory, or a staff member’s phone. That is where disputes, forgotten debts, and quiet stock losses begin.

Disputed balances

Customer says they paid; shop says they did not. Without a shared record, trust erodes and good customers walk away.

Staff opacity

Owners who are not always on the floor cannot see every credit sale or every repayment — openings for sharp practices.

Stock blindness

Credit moves goods out the door. Without catalog and low-stock alerts, shelves empty before the owner knows.

Two products · one ecosystem

Credit Ledger & Shop Manager

Start with clean credit records. Add Shop Manager when you want catalog, staff sales, receipts, and stock control from the same place.

Core

Credit Ledger

A shared, verifiable record of every credit request, approval, and repayment between your shop and your customers.

  • Customers request items or amounts on WhatsApp
  • You approve or decline from the app
  • Both sides see the same running balance
  • Repayments are receipted with transparent 1% + 1% platform fees
  • Identity support via mobile KYC where required
  • Works in the languages your market actually speaks

You are not borrowing from CREDITOR. Your customers still owe you — we only keep the ledger straight.

Premium

Shop Manager

Day-to-day control for growing shops: catalog, staff WhatsApp sales, receipts, and low-stock alerts — after a full-feature trial.

  • Simple catalog of what you sell and at what price
  • Staff can record sales on WhatsApp; the owner sees it live
  • Digital receipts that match the ledger
  • Low-stock alerts when quantities hit your threshold
  • Designed so sales staff do not need the full owner app
  • Reduces room for unrecorded sales and missing stock

Built for owners who cannot stand behind the counter all day — but still need the truth of what moved.

Simple flow

How CREDITOR works in your shop

From a customer’s WhatsApp message to a clear balance — without new habits that staff will ignore.

01

Onboard the shop

An agent or the owner registers the shop, basic bio-data, and location. Your store appears on the shared map of active shops.

02

Customers request on WhatsApp

They message the CREDITOR bot the way they already chat: “5 eggs, 2 bread…” No new app required for the customer.

03

You approve · it hits the ledger

Approve or decline. Both sides see the same entry. Repayments update the balance and generate an itemised receipt.

04

Optional: Shop Manager

Turn on catalog, staff sales, receipts, and low-stock after the trial — so the floor and the owner stay in sync.

Built for operators

What changes for small & mid-scale businesses

Fewer arguments

A shared ledger means “I paid already” is settled by the record, not by volume of voice.

Owner visibility

See credit given, repaid, and outstanding even when you are not in the shop — including staff-driven sales when Shop Manager is on.

Staff without full access

Sales staff can work through WhatsApp workflows without needing the owner’s full control of the ledger.

Stock discipline

Low-stock thresholds warn you before popular lines disappear — especially when credit is moving inventory fast.

Transparent fees

Platform charges on repayment are itemised. Customers and shops see what was paid for the service.

Local languages

Interfaces and messaging aim to meet traders and customers in the languages they already use.

Simple commercial terms

Pricing for shops

No balance-sheet lending. You pay for software and platform services that keep the ledger and tools running.
