Payment Info Setup

SellThat sets up clear payment information pages for informal traders, spaza shops and home businesses that need customers to see how to pay without confusion. The page can cover EFT, card payments, cash on collection, WhatsApp order steps and delivery notes in plain South African English.

Payment pages that make sense on a phone

Payment info setup is not only about the words on the page. It also includes the structure around the page, so customers do not get stuck halfway through an order. We help place the payment section where it is easy to find, and we keep the wording aligned with the way your store handles orders, delivery and collection.

If your business sells clothing, household items, packaged food or day-to-day goods, the payment notes may need a different flow from a made-to-order service. We format the page around the way you actually trade, including details for WhatsApp follow up, delivery confirmation and payment references. That reduces back-and-forth and helps customers finish the order properly.

  • Page structure planned around your order flow
  • Notes for order references and proof of payment
  • Display of payment steps for mobile shoppers
  • Wording matched to collection, courier or local delivery

What we set out on the payment information page

The page can include the details customers normally ask for before they pay. We keep it general enough to suit informal traders and home businesses, but specific enough to stop confusion at checkout. Where needed, we also add a short note about checking prices or stock through WhatsApp before payment is made.

We do not give tax, legal or financial advice. If your payment setup needs more formal guidance, especially where records, tax invoices or reporting are concerned, you should check with SARS or a qualified adviser. We can still help present the information clearly so your customers know what to do next.

  • Accepted payment options such as EFT, card, cash or mobile payment methods
  • Order reference instructions
  • Proof of payment steps
  • Delivery fee or collection notes where applicable
  • Short customer guidance for payment questions

How the setup work moves from notes to live page

We start by looking at the way you currently take payment and how your customers place orders. Then we shape the page text, headings and button labels so they fit your store. If you already have a price list, delivery note or WhatsApp ordering flow, we use that to keep the payment page consistent.

After that, the page is checked for wording, layout and visibility on mobile screens. We make sure the payment details are easy to find, especially for customers ordering in a hurry between work, taxis or market trading. If you need the payment page connected to a pricing page or delivery page, we align the wording so the sections do not clash.

  1. Review your current payment method and order process
  2. Draft the payment information page in plain language
  3. Add the page to the store and check the layout on phone and computer
  4. Review the final wording and make any needed adjustments

Turnaround and pricing approach for this service

The time needed depends on how much information must be organised and whether the payment details are already written down. A page built from scratch with several payment options, collection notes and delivery instructions will take more attention than a short update to an existing page. We do not give rushed promises, because the useful part is getting the wording right and not leaving customers guessing.

Pricing is handled according to the amount of content work, page changes and support needed. A basic payment page costs less than a fuller version that includes multiple payment methods, linked pages and customer instructions. If you are running a small shop from home in Alexandra or Tembisa, you may only need a clear one-page setup. Larger catalogues with more delivery options need a bit more time and content care.

  • Basic page wording for one or two payment methods
  • Expanded page setup for mixed payment and delivery flows
  • Optional links to WhatsApp order instructions and pricing pages
  • Quoted according to content length and store complexity

Aftercare once the payment page is live

Once the page is live, we can assist if your payment methods change, if you add a new delivery option or if customers ask the same thing often and the wording needs sharpening. This helps when a trader starts with cash and EFT, then later adds card payments or different collection rules. The point is to keep the page readable and up to date without making it crowded.

Support can also include small wording changes after you have tested the page with real customers. If people in Soweto or Durban are still asking for the same detail on WhatsApp, that is usually a sign the page needs a clearer line or a better heading. We adjust the content so the instructions are easier to follow on a busy day.

  • Small wording changes after launch
  • Updates when payment methods change
  • Help aligning the page with WhatsApp ordering
  • Support for clearer customer instructions
