About NodeCart

Commerce, built for how Africa actually sells.

We started NodeCart in Nairobi after watching shop owners chase payments in DMs and re-explain their stock a hundred times a day. There had to be a calmer way to sell.

Why we built it

Most e-commerce tools were designed for card-first, app-first markets. In Africa, business happens on M-Pesa and in WhatsApp — and the global platforms never quite fit.

So we built the platform we wished existed: M-Pesa at the centre, WhatsApp native, and honest about what it does. Your money goes straight to your till. Your photos stay yours. Your shop reads as a real business from day one.

No plugin zoo. No developer on call. One tight platform for independent shops, makers and studios across the region.

What we believe

Three things we won't compromise on

Your money is yours

NodeCart never holds your revenue and takes 0% of transactions. You pay a flat plan — that’s it.

Honest by design

Our AI writes your words, never fakes your product photos. What customers see is what they get.

Built for the region

Fast on 3G, light on budget phones, fluent in M-Pesa and WhatsApp. Made in Nairobi, for Africa.

Who we're for

Built for every kind of seller.

From kitchens and boutiques to gadget shops and farms — NodeCart is shaped around how each trade actually sells.
