Why MerchantHQ

The advantages that change your day

The till without Internet

Run a kiosk or a network of stores from a single account, with data kept separate per shop.

Clear reports

Daily sales, margins, best sellers and team performance, readable at a glance.

Team with roles

One account per employee, roles (manager, cashier) and simple attendance to clock.

Security

Passwords encrypted on the device, encrypted backups, and one password per account.

Built in the DRC

Designed in the DRC, for Congolese shops

MerchantHQ is developed locally, under the real conditions of shops in the DRC: power cuts, unstable network and local selling habits.

  • Works offline, backs up when the network returns
  • French, English, Lingala and Swahili
  • Local currencies (FC, USD) with conversion rates

A tool that speaks your language and works like your shop.

How it works

Ready in three steps

01

Create your account

Two-minute sign-up. Your shop and its backup follow you everywhere.

02

Set up your shop

Name, currencies, language and theme: you start in under five minutes.

03

Sell and track

Ring up sales, manage stock and the team. Backups go out automatically, depending on your plan.

Then the team activates your subscription over WhatsApp, within 24 hours. The account and the app stay usable offline during that time.

Built for the local market

An app that knows your realities

MerchantHQ is developed in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, for Congolese and African merchants — not for an imagined market. Discover our point-of-sale software in the DRC, built for these working conditions.

  • Built for Africa
    Power and Internet cuts do not paralyse your till: everything keeps running offline.
  • 4 languages
    French, English, Lingala and Swahili — each employee uses the app in their own language.
  • Close support
    A local team answering on WhatsApp, in French or Lingala.
  • Built in the DRC
    A solution built on site, aligned with the Congolese Digital Code.
A concrete example
Power cut in the middle of a sale?
The till keeps running on battery.
As soon as the Internet returns, everything is backed up.
