Build your online store in Ghana

If you already sell through Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp status or a physical shop, you know the routine. Someone asks for the price, you send photos, you confirm the size, you share your MoMo number, then you wait for a screenshot. Vendar gives your business a proper online store, so customers can browse, choose and pay on their own while you focus on packing and delivering.

Vendar is an online store builder made by Vynix Tech for Ghanaian merchants. Vendar gives you a domain, or use your own custom domain if you have one. Customers pay with Mobile Money or card, and you get a WhatsApp assistant and VendarChat. You don't need to write any code. The website and WhatsApp shopping assistants and the WhatsApp operations copilot come with the Pro plan. The WhatsApp bot runs on Meta's official WhatsApp Business Platform. The bots give shoppers the shop's contact number instead of handing the chat to a person.

Why sell from your own online store?

Social media is good for getting noticed. It's not built for selling. Posts get buried, DMs pile up, and every sale depends on you replying quickly. Marketplaces bring buyers, but you share the spotlight with other sellers.

With your own store you get:

  • One link that shows everything. Put it in your bio, on your WhatsApp status and on your flyers.
  • Sales while you're busy. Customers can order at midnight or while you're at the market.
  • Your brand, front and centre. Your name, your logo, and your domain.
  • Records you can trust. Every order, payment and customer is saved in one dashboard instead of scattered across chats.

What you get with Vendar

Your domain

Vendar gives you a domain, or use your own custom domain if you have one. We handle the technical setup. It looks more trustworthy than a marketplace link.

Mobile Money and card checkout, powered by Paystack

Customers pay at checkout with MTN MoMo, Telecel Cash, AirtelTigo Money, or card. Payments are processed by Paystack, so you don't need to check screenshots or match payments to orders by hand. The shopper pays Paystack's 2% processing fee at checkout, for Mobile Money and card payments, so you receive the full product price. Payouts follow Paystack's standard settlement schedule. Read more on our Mobile Money payments page.

A WhatsApp shopping assistant

Many Ghanaian shoppers prefer to buy over WhatsApp. Vendar runs one WhatsApp assistant for all Vendar stores. When your customers chat with it, it serves them using your store's own catalogue. Shoppers can find products, ask for recommendations, check live prices and stock, build a bag, place an order and track it. Your authorised team members can also ask it about revenue, orders and customers. Shoppers use it to shop, and merchants use it to run the shop. See how selling on WhatsApp works. The website and WhatsApp shopping assistants and the WhatsApp operations copilot come with the Pro plan. The WhatsApp bot runs on Meta's official WhatsApp Business Platform. The bots give shoppers the shop's contact number instead of handing the chat to a person.

VendarChat

VendarChat is a separate Vendar chatbot, distinct from the WhatsApp assistant. Shoppers use VendarChat on the store's website. Merchants, store handlers and tenant admins use VendarChat in the merchant dashboard. Both the WhatsApp assistant and VendarChat can be used by shoppers to shop and by merchants to run the shop. The website and WhatsApp shopping assistants and the WhatsApp operations copilot come with the Pro plan. The WhatsApp bot runs on Meta's official WhatsApp Business Platform. The bots give shoppers the shop's contact number instead of handing the chat to a person.
