**With Paystack, run your business wherever you are** Paystack powers payments for businesses across Africa. The Paystack Merchant App puts everything you need to run your business in your pocket, from taking payments in person to tracking sales and resolving chargebacks. **Take payments in person** Enter an amount and accept payment by card, bank transfer, or mobile money. The app automatically applies the right minimum payment amount and formatting for each currency. Every payment appears in your Paystack Dashboard, ready for reconciliation. **Stay on top of your business** See today’s revenue, pending payouts, payment requests, and open disputes as soon as you open the app. You can also find transactions faster by filtering them by status, payment channel, or date. Need to issue a refund? Choose a full, half, or quarter refund directly from the transaction. **Create payment requests in seconds** Create, send, track, mark as paid, or cancel payment requests from the app. Select a customer from your saved customer list instead of entering their details again, then share the payment link through WhatsApp, SMS, or email. **Manage disputes more easily** Chargebacks and fraud claims that need your attention appear in a dedicated “Needs response” queue. A live countdown shows exactly how long you have to reply, and overdue disputes are clearly highlighted in red. Upload evidence, add notes, and respond without leaving the app. **Switch between businesses** Manage more than one Paystack business? Switch between your integrations with a tap, without signing out. The app automatically reloads with the information for the business you select. **Get real-time payment notifications** Receive a notification as soon as a customer pays, so you can confirm the transaction and keep your business moving. **Sign in quickly and securely** Set up a passkey once, then sign in with Face ID or a tap instead of entering your password every time. You can also stay signed in throughout your workday. **Built for Paystack merchants** The app supports merchants in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, and Côte d’Ivoire, with support for NGN, GHS, KES, ZAR, USD, and XOF. Minimum payment amounts and currency formatting are automatically adjusted for each market. **Completely rebuilt** Paystack 2.0 has been rebuilt from the ground up to be faster, lighter, and easier to use. Every screen has been redesigned as part of a more consistent experience, using Apple’s iOS 26 Liquid Glass materials. And we’re just getting started. Have feedback or ideas for what we should build next? Go to **Account → Help**. Paystack Payments Limited is a licensed and regulated payments processor.

Storepra turns your phone into the control room for your online storefront. If you sell food, retail products or services, Storepra gives your business a professional online presence and a simple way to receive customer orders. This app is the vendor side of that: everything you need to run the shop while you are away from a computer. WHAT YOU CAN DO Orders, as they happen See new orders the moment they arrive, with the customer's name, contact details, items, options and notes. Move an order through Pending, Confirmed, Preparing, Ready and Completed with a single tap, so your kitchen or counter and your customer stay in step. Your catalogue, edited on the spot Add and update items straight from your phone, including photos taken with the camera or picked from your gallery. Set prices, categories, discounts and sale periods. Build option groups such as sizes, add-ons or variants, and choose whether each option adds to the base price or replaces it. Mark something sold out in one tap when you run out. Bookings and service requests Review incoming reservations and service requests with the date, time, party size and any notes the customer left, then confirm or cancel. Customer feedback Read the ratings and comments customers leave on your storefront, and see your average rating at a glance. Share your storefront Get your storefront QR code for your table, counter or window, and share your store link straight to WhatsApp or anywhere else from your phone. At-a-glance numbers Your home screen shows total orders, catalogue size, bookings and average rating, with a chart of storefront views over the last 14 days and a feed of recent activity you can tap through to the exact order or item. Locations See every location or branch attached to your business. BUILT FOR HOW YOU ACTUALLY WORK The app adapts its language to your kind of business: a restaurant sees bookings and a menu, a retail shop sees products, a service business sees requests and appointments. Alerts arrive as push notifications so you do not have to keep the app open to know an order came in, and everything you change here appears on your storefront and web dashboard immediately. BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD StorePra is for business owners who already have a Storepra account. You create your account and choose your plan at storepra.com, then sign in here to manage your store. This app does not create new accounts. An active Storepra plan is required. Your items stay safe if a plan lapses; they are simply hidden from customers until it is active again.
