Kere - Turn DMs Into Paid Orders

Buyer flow

<5s

Bot reply target

Fast replies help buyers move from question to checkout.

// THE BUYER PROBLEM

Buyers lose interest when the sale leaves the conversation.

Most African businesses already sell through messages, calls, counters, and QR codes. Kere connects those entry points so buyers can get answers, place orders, pay, and receive updates with less back-and-forth.

Sell from the places customers already use

Bring chat, storefront, QR, delivery, pickup, and in-person sales into one order flow instead of chasing messages across apps.

One customer record

Instagram DM

Turn comments and DMs into product replies, carts, and checkout.

WhatsApp

Answer questions, take orders, send payment, and update delivery in one thread.

Telegram

Run bot flows and Mini-App storefronts for communities and repeat buyers.

Web Storefront

Publish a simple catalog for buyers who prefer browser checkout.

Dine-In

Let guests scan, order, open tabs, and pay from a table or room.

Delivery

Offer delivery and order status without managing everything in spreadsheets.

Pickup

Confirm pickup times and send ready notifications automatically.

Soft POS

Take walk-in payments and keep sales tied to the same inventory.

Keep control after the order comes in

01

Recognize repeat buyers

Know when the same customer buys through chat, web, QR, or POS, then reward them without manual tracking.

02

Know what can be sold

Keep products, menus, services, rooms, stock, and location availability aligned before customers order.

03

Move work to the right team

Route orders to kitchen, cashier, delivery, room service, or staff with fewer manual handoffs.

Live business view

See what is selling, where, and who needs action.

Kere ties orders, payments, customers, inventory, staff, and locations together so you can grow beyond manual DMs without losing visibility.

Common Questions

Choose an available time in our booking calendar and add a few details about your business. We focus on businesses already taking orders through DMs, WhatsApp, QR, POS, bookings, or multiple locations.

No. Kere is designed around the channels customers already use: WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, web storefronts, QR flows, and point-of-sale experiences.

Kere includes core bot order capture, catalog Q&A, checkout, order status replies, and human handoff. Provider message fees are handled separately as pass-through costs or message credits.

Kere charges a 1% platform fee on successful paid transactions across Sell, Operate, and Expand. Payment provider fees are separate and passed through transparently.

Choose Operate when physical locations create operational complexity: location inventory, location staff scope, POS device binding, cash reconciliation, QR table or room context, and per-location reporting.

Choose Expand when one brand has multiple unit or outlet types, such as hotel + restaurant, restaurant + lounge, retail + services, or restaurant + bar + room service.

Yes. Multi-business access is available across plans, and each business is billed independently. Branches, outlets, and units of the same business must use Operate or Expand instead of being split into separate businesses.
