Everything your shop does. One place.
A storefront your customers order from. One queue for every order, however it arrived. Stock that counts itself down before it embarrasses you, and a day's sales you can understand when you close.
Free to open — no monthly or yearly fee. Nothing to install, and your customers need no app and no account.
What it costs
₦0 to open. ₦0 a month. ₦0 a year.
Ekime never sends your business a bill: no subscription, no setup fee and nothing to renew. You pay for what you use — a small fee on each order paid through Ekime, which your customer pays with the bill, and a small fee when you move more than ₦5,000 to your bank.
To open and to keep
₦0
Every tool here is included: your storefront, the order queue, stock, your team, the wallet and the reports. No monthly fee, no yearly fee, nothing to renew.
A small fee per order
₦60 – ₦350
On every order paid through Ekime, however small, by its size. Nothing on cash or a card on your own POS. Your customer pays it — or you can choose to cover it yourself.
Moving money to your bank
₦0 · ₦10 · ₦20
By the amount, like any bank transfer — ₦0 up to ₦5,000, ₦10 under ₦50,000, ₦20 above it.
The fee goes by the size of the order: ₦60 up to ₦2,500, ₦100 up to ₦5,000, ₦150 up to ₦20,000, ₦250 up to ₦100,000 and ₦350 above. It is charged on every order paid through Ekime, however small — online, or by a payment link or invoice. Cash, a card on your own POS and a transfer straight to you carry no fee. Your customer pays it, shown to them before they pay — or you can choose to cover it yourself, from Settings. VAT is added only if your business is registered for it and switches it on.
On the menu right now
Every one of these is an item on a shop running on Ekime, with the picture from its own menu. Tap any of them.
Here to order, not to sell?
Every shop on Ekime is open to anybody. Browse them, or search everything they sell in one list.
Know the shops in your area? Turn that into work.
Partners are people who bring shops to Ekime. They sign businesses up, help them set up and keep them trading. For every paid order at a business you brought in, you earn ₦20 of the small fee Ekime takes on each order, for 24 months from its first paid order — paid into an account of your own.
No shop of your own, no stock, no capital. A phone, and the businesses you already know. The more they trade, the more you earn — and you keep earning while they do.
Bring businesses in
They open their shop with your code or your link.
Keep them trading
Your dashboard shows who is stuck, who went quiet, and why.
Withdraw when you like
To up to three of your own banks, for a small fee per withdrawal.
Shops built the way yours would be.
Open any of them and look round. Nothing below is a picture of a product — they are the product, running.
You are already running all of this. Just not in one place.
Orders come from five places
A call, a WhatsApp message, somebody at the counter, a customer at table six, a rider waiting. They live in different places and none of them add up at the end of the night.
You find out it is finished when somebody orders it
Nothing counts down while you are busy. The page keeps selling the fish the kitchen ran out of, or the size you sold this morning, and somebody has to go back to the customer.
Money came in. What did you make?
The money in the drawer is one number. What you sold, what delivery cost, which discount went out — that is a different number, and working it out waits for a quiet evening that never comes.
Ekime speaks your trade's language
Choose what you do when you sign up, and your dashboard shows your own screens and your own words. A salon books appointments. A supermarket scans barcodes. A kitchen gets a ticket screen.

A shop that looks like yours, not like a form
Your logo, your colours, your photographs. Dishes lead with the picture, the way people actually choose food. A dish with no photograph yet gets a plate of its own rather than a grey box — so a menu looks finished on the first day, not the fiftieth.
- One link for Instagram, WhatsApp, a card or a QR code
- Search and categories, so sixty dishes are not one long scroll
- Dine in, pickup or delivery — you choose what you offer
- Delivery areas with their own fee, estimate and minimum
- Customers follow the order afterwards and rate it when it is done
Every order in one queue, whatever door it came through
The link, the counter, table six, a delivery — all of it arrives in the same list, marked with where it came from. Move an order through confirmed, preparing, ready and done, and everybody looking at the screen sees the same thing.
A diner who scanned the code on their table does not have to say where they are sitting: the order already knows, and it is dine-in whatever else was chosen. Somebody sitting at table nine is not collecting.
The menu stops selling what the kitchen ran out of
Stock comes down as part of taking the order, not afterwards — so two customers cannot both buy the last one. Cancel or refund an order and the goods go back on the shelf. At zero the item closes itself, and before that the overview tells you what is running low while there is still time to do something about it.
Money you can understand
Your sales for the day, a simple chart, and what each day really brought in — not just what was ordered. Your money is locked behind a PIN only you know.
The people who work for you
Invite a cook by email or hand them a code to type once. Give them a role. Take it back the day they leave, without changing a password.
A record of who did what
Every change is written down with the name of the person who made it, so you always know who did what.
The whole thing, listed plainly
Not a teaser. This is what is in the product today.
Storefront
Your own link, your colours, your logo and up to twelve photos. Search, categories, opening hours and a map to find you.
Orders
One queue for every order whatever door it came through, moved along in your trade's words: preparing, packing or in progress.
Menu, products or services
Categories, prices and pictures, with choices that follow your rules — a size they must pick, up to three toppings.
Stock
Goes down the moment an order is taken, goes back up when one is cancelled or refunded, and the item closes itself at zero.
Sizes and colours
Up to three options on a product, each combination with its own price, stock, picture and barcode.
Weights and measures
Sell by the kg, per 100 g, by the litre or the mudu. Weighed after the order, with the difference settled either way.
Barcodes
Scan at the till with a scanner or the camera. An unknown code becomes a product on the spot, and shelf labels print in one go.
Appointments
Customers book a service, a person and a free time from your link. One column a person, with check-in and no double bookings.
Pre-orders
Orders for a date with a deposit. Taken with the order, Ekime holds it until you accept, and gives it all back if you decline.
Tables & QR
A printed card on each table. A diner scans it, orders from their seat, calls a waiter, or books a table ahead.
Delivery
Your customer picks a delivery company at checkout and we book it when you accept. Or send your own riders, priced by the parts of town you deliver to.
Online payment
A shopper pays by bank transfer from the order's own page. The order marks itself paid when the money lands, and you are credited exactly once.
Discounts
Offers that come off by themselves and coupon codes with their own rules, shown in the total before the customer pays.
Rewards
Points on every paid order, tiers that earn faster, and points spent on the bill at your till.
Customers & reviews
Built from the phone number on the order, with their history in one place. Reviews with photos, which you can answer.
Wallet
Your own account number, what you actually took, and withdrawals behind a transaction PIN, with a record of every movement.
Team
Roles named for your trade, a rota, clock-in on My Shift, tips, and payroll with a file for your bank.
Reports
Sales, money, VAT and stock as spreadsheets or PDF, and a summary emailed to you every day, week and month.
Marketing
Ready-to-post drafts from what you sell, an offer pushed to customers' phones, and email to the regulars who asked for it.
Activity log
Every change written down with the name of who made it.
