Everything you need to sell from your link
cart.ke turns your WhatsApp and Instagram hustle into a clean storefront buyers can browse — then hands every order straight to your WhatsApp. Here is what you get.
What's inside
Your own storefront
A clean shop at your own link, with categories, KSh prices and product details. Share it once on WhatsApp or Instagram and every buyer sees the same tidy catalogue — no more scrolling old posts or “inbox for price”.
Photo & share toolkit
Upload straight from your phone and we tidy every photo — cropped, compressed and quick to load on mobile data. Each product also gets a ready-made share image so your posts and status updates look professional.
Orders on WhatsApp
Buyers tap one button on any product and a WhatsApp chat opens with you, the item already in the message. The conversation is yours from the first hello — and there is no new app for buyers to download.
Your M-Pesa till, on show
Add your M-Pesa till or pay number once and it shows on every product so buyers know exactly how to pay you. It is there for information only — buyers pay you directly, and we never touch the money.
See what's working
Your dashboard shows how many people viewed each product and how many tapped Order on WhatsApp — so you know what to restock and what to share next. Simple counts, no guesswork.
Run it all from your phone
Add products, edit prices, publish or hide items and check your numbers from the same phone you already sell on. Set up takes about 30 minutes and then you are live.
What we leave out — on purpose
cart.ke is deliberately lean and upfront. A few things the big platforms do, we don't — because they slow you down, cost you, or come between you and your buyer:
- No cart or checkout. Buyers order on WhatsApp, the way Kenyan sellers already sell — not through a checkout that loses them halfway.
- No commission, ever. You keep 100% of every sale; we only charge one flat monthly fee.
- We never hold your money. Payment happens directly between you and your buyer — your M-Pesa details are shown for information only.
- No buyer accounts or logins. Anyone with your link can browse and tap to order.
- No shared marketplace. Your store is yours alone — buyers see only your products, never a rival seller's, and we never push them to “more stores like this”.
- No free-forever plan, and no hidden fees. You start with a free trial, then continue on one simple flat monthly plan — see our pricing for the exact figure.
