Where it works, and what is still missing

An honest list of which countries, currencies and delivery methods are live — and which are not.

Currencies you can sell in

A currency appears only once we can both take money in it and pay it out. There is deliberately no state where you can list in a currency nobody can be paid in.

USD, EUR, GBP
Card payments, paid out through Stripe.
NGN, KES, GHS, ZAR
Local rails through Flutterwave, paid into a bank account.
If a currency you expected is missing from the composer, it is because the rail behind it is switched off right now — not because you typed it wrong.

Getting paid, by country

Card payouts run through Stripe Express, which we currently open to sellers in the United States only. Sellers in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and South Africa are paid instead through a Flutterwave account tied to their own bank details.

That single split is why the two halves of the product look different in different places, and it is worth knowing before you plan around a feature.

Delivery, by country

Courier booking
Live where our courier partner operates. Not available in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya or South Africa — nothing is wired to the local courier companies there yet.
The shop's own car
Everywhere. It needs no account and no integration, which is why it is the backbone across African markets.
A community runner
Wherever a runner has published a service area that reaches the shop. Needs no courier account and no vehicle of the shop's own — but the runner must be able to receive card payouts, which today means a payout account in the United States.
Posting a parcel
Everywhere, at a flat rate. Live carrier quotes additionally need a configured provider and full postcodes at both ends.

Things people expect that do not exist yet

Stated plainly, because finding out at the wrong moment is worse than knowing now.

  • There is no dispute button on a card order. If something arrives wrong, message the seller; if that fails, contact support. Refunds are possible — a formal dispute state is not built.
  • Postage labels are not bought in the app. A seller is paid the postage and buys the label on their own tool.
  • Reviews and staff blocks on a shop page are in the vocabulary but not yet built, and the editor says so rather than hiding them.
  • A shop is not told when a delivery it promised goes unclaimed. Only the buyer is.
