Frequently asked questions

Getting started

What is Kiosc?

Kiosc is a storefront platform for merchants across Africa. Pick a premium theme, add your products, connect a payment gateway, and go live on your own store link in minutes no design or development work needed.

Do I need a website domain to start?

No. Every store gets a free subdomain (yourstore.getkiosc.com) as soon as you sign up. Connecting your own custom domain is optional, and some plans include a free domain for the first year.

Is Kiosc a Progressive Web App?

Yes. Every storefront and the merchant dashboard can be installed straight to a customer's or merchant's home screen, with offline support just like a native app.

Plans & billing

What plans are available?

Kiosc offers four plans on different billing cycles Launch (1 month), Grow (3 months), Scale (6 months), and Pro (1 year) each with more products, themes, and features than the last. See the full breakdown on our pricing section.

Can I change my plan later?

Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade at any time from your dashboard. Each plan bills on its own cycle, shown on its pricing card.

How many products can I list?

That depends on your plan, from 100 products on Launch up to unlimited products on Pro. You can upgrade anytime as your catalog grows.

Payments

How does payment and checkout work?

You connect your own payment gateway account (like Paystack or Flutterwave). Customer payments settle directly to you Kiosc never sits between you and your money or holds your funds.

Domains & themes

Can I use my own domain name?

Yes. You can connect a domain you already own, or register a new one through Kiosc some plans include a free domain for the first year, which then renews annually at the standard renewal price.
