The everyday grind

Running a spaza shop shouldn't mean guessing.

Informal retailers are the heartbeat of South Africa's townships — yet they run on handwritten notebooks, guesswork orders and cash that's hard to track. Stock runs out on the busiest days, deliveries arrive whenever, and thin margins leave no room for waste.

Waste eats your margin

Over-ordering perishables and running out of fast-movers quietly drains the little profit you make.

Hours lost to admin

Counting stock by hand and juggling supplier calls steals time you could spend serving customers.

Deliveries you can't see

No visibility on when stock arrives means empty shelves and disappointed regulars.

No access to credit

Banks want paperwork you don't have, so restocking depends entirely on today's cash.

Everything in one app

The complete toolkit for a modern tuckshop

Order, stock, sell and grow — Khama Royal House replaces the notebook, the calculator and the cash box with one platform that works the way your shop does.

One-tap supply ordering

Browse trusted wholesalers and reorder your fast-movers in seconds. Compare prices and lock in the best deal without leaving the shop.

Real-time inventory

Every sale updates your stock instantly. See what's running low, what's overstocked, and never disappoint a customer with an empty shelf.

Live delivery tracking

Watch your order move from warehouse to your door with an accurate ETA — so you plan your day around deliveries, not the other way around.

Embedded payments

Accept cash, card and mobile money in one place. Reconciliation is automatic, so your books balance themselves at the end of every day.

Stock credit that fits

Unlock short-term working capital to restock, approved on your ordering history — not paperwork. Grow your shelves before payday.

Simple business insights

Clear, plain-language reports show your best sellers, margins and busiest hours, turning everyday sales into smarter decisions.

Shop owners, in their own words

Sample stories shown for illustration.

I used to write stock in a notebook and guess my orders. Now I see everything on my phone and I've stopped running out of cold drinks on hot days.

The stock credit let me double my shelves before month-end. Deliveries arrive when the app says — my customers noticed the difference.

Questions & answers

Everything you might be wondering

Khama Royal House is a mobile-first platform for South Africa's tuckshops and spaza shops. From one app you order stock from suppliers, track your inventory in real time, follow your deliveries, and accept payments — plus tap into working-capital credit to keep your shelves full.

One simple plan: about R400 per month (roughly $22). No setup fees, no lock-in contracts, and no card required to join the waitlist. The fee is deliberately priced for cash-tight informal retailers with thin margins.

Those tools each solve one slice — ordering, or wholesale payments, or a single retailer's catalogue. Khama Royal House brings ordering, live inventory, delivery tracking and embedded payments & credit into a single workflow, so you don't juggle three apps and a notebook to run your shop.

A basic Android smartphone is all you need. The app is built to be light on data and works well on 3G. Core features are designed to stay usable even when the signal is patchy.

Payments and short-term stock credit are built directly into the platform, so you can accept customer payments and finance your next order without leaving the app or visiting a bank. Approvals are based on your ordering history, not paperwork.

We're rolling out province by province. Join the waitlist with your shop name and location and we'll reach out the moment Khama Royal House is live in your area — early members get onboarding support and launch perks.
