Afriknect is a complete shop-management toolkit designed for small store owners in emerging markets. It combines:

  • Barcode scan-to-sell — scan items straight into a cart and checkout in seconds.
  • Inventory management — stock levels, low-stock alerts, buying/selling prices, bulk import from Excel, and damaged-goods tracking.
  • Sales & payments — cash, mobile money, and pay-later (debt), with automatic profit calculation.
  • Customer debt tracking — balances, overdue alerts, and per-customer ledgers.
  • Daily reports & insights — sales, profit, expenses, and weather-based business context.
  • Staff & approvals — invite workers, restrict sensitive actions, and approve returns/edits in real time.
  • Reseller referral program — tiered commissions to grow your customer base through local agents.

Small to medium independent shop owners — kiosks, mini-markets, electronics stalls, pharmacies, hardware shops, and general traders — who currently rely on notebooks or basic calculators and want a fast, no-training way to track what they sell and what they're owed.
