Can I use services without paying?

ANKA is the all-in-one solution for African entrepreneurs to grow their business online. Our suite of services provide the tools you need to pay / get paid, ship / receive and showcase your products to the world.

ANKA offers a unique subscription plan with transparent fees that give you access to all our services. You can subscribe for a quarter, a semester or a year. More on the billing model below. The services you can use are:

Create your online store in less than an hour. Add as many products as you want and showcase them to our large audience (500K monthly visits)

Customers place orders, you accept them, then fulfill them. Once your customer confirms reception, your funds are credited on your ANKA virtual wallet. You can transfer them at any time and wherever suits you best. See all options here (link to all payout / payins).

After several orders placed you can ask for a Verified Seller status to get funds immediately on sale and not have to wait for customer reception.

If your subscription gets cancelled, your shop goes offline and won't be visible to customers. You can still access it and edit products, and it is instantly reactivated with your subscription.

Ship your parcels from everywhere to anywhere, with insurance and customs handled and at the best price in Africa.

Save money: thanks to the volume generated by the ANKA community, you can use DHL at a discounted rate. The more you ship with the ANKA DHL account, the more we can negotiate reduced prices, and the more you save on shipping costs!

Save time: in large cities, you can request a pick-up of your parcel by DHL at no cost. See if your city applies (article on shipping #anchor).

You can ship any order, whether coming from ANKA marketplace, your own website, or even personal shipments.

Create payment links in a matter of seconds and share them on your social media, messaging apps or wherever suits you best.

Payment links are customised to your brand and can be set to one time or re-usable. For instance, if you run a subscription based business, your customers can pay monthly.

ANKA pay is powered by our wallet feature. Check the article to see all means of pay-in (get paid) and pay-out (transfer funds) accepted.

ANKA pay can integrate with your own website: see if you qualify (link section in ANKA Pay by link revamped, integrate ANKA pay on my website).

The billing model is a mix of fixed subscription + commissions.

If auto renewal payment fails, your subscription will cancel automatically. You can renew it using any means of payment you wish and at any time.

You cannot use ANKA without an active subscription. ANKA services are a bundle, meaning subscribing gives you access to all services. You can use only one or all three of them, the costs do not change!
