For shops in Kano, Arewa & Northern Nigeria

Keep your shop's numbers straight — with or without network.

Kasuwa helps shop owners and market traders record sales, keep stock up to date, follow customer credit and see estimated profit from a phone. Built for unreliable connections, in English and Hausa.

Everyday shop workflow

The jobs you do every day, done in a few taps.

Record a sale, let stock update itself, and keep track of who still owes you — without a notebook, a calculator and a lot of guessing.

Record a sale in seconds

Pick saved products or add a custom item, set quantities and see the total. Note how you were paid — cash, bank transfer, or credit.

  • Products or custom items
  • Cash, transfer or credit
  • Receipt you can print or share

Stock that updates itself

Selling a product reduces your available stock automatically, so you can see what is really left on the shelf — and what is running low.

  • Search, sort and filter by stock
  • Low and out-of-stock states
  • Shelf and reserved stock tracked apart

Credit you can follow up

Link a credit sale to a customer. Their balance drops as you record repayments by cash or transfer, so no debt gets lost in a notebook.

  • Customer balances in one list
  • Payment and sale history
  • Repayments by cash or transfer
Also in the app: Expenses Invoices & receipts Staff roles Multiple shops* Offline sync

Know what is owed

Every customer's balance, in one place.

Credit sales are normal in the market. Losing track of them is not. Kasuwa keeps each customer's outstanding balance, recent sales and repayment history together, so a friendly reminder takes seconds.

  • Customer names, phone numbers and balances
  • Search a customer and see what they bought
  • Record a repayment and the balance updates
  • Only credit sales are attached to a customer

Business reports

See what the shop actually made — not just what it sold.

A busy day is not the same as a profitable one. Kasuwa takes the cost of your goods off the top, then takes your expenses off what is left, so you can see the money the business kept.

  • Sales, cost of goods, gross profit, expenses, profit and margin
  • Today, this week, this month, or all recorded activity
  • Top products, and sales that are missing a cost price
  • A printable daily report you can share

Offline-first

The network can drop. Your shop can't.

On your phone, Kasuwa keeps core shop data in a local database. Sales, products, customers, payments and expenses you record while offline are queued on the device and synchronised when the connection comes back. Changes that fail to sync are kept for retry — not silently thrown away.

  • Record sales, stock, credit and expenses without a connection
  • Queued changes sync automatically when you are back online
  • Failed changes are retained and retried

Some things do need a connection: signing in, inviting staff, shop administration, subscription checkout, and syncing between devices.

Made for local use

Built around how shops here actually trade.

English & Hausa

The interface is translated for both, with a language selector in settings. Switch whenever it suits you.

Naira, throughout

Every amount is in ₦ (NGN). What you type at the counter is what the report shows.

Rooted in Kano & Arewa

Designed for shops and market traders in Northern Nigeria — and usable by any small business in Nigeria.

Questions

Straight answers.

Does Kasuwa work without internet?

Yes for the core shop work. On a phone, Kasuwa stores shop data in a local database on the device. Product, customer, sale, payment and expense changes you make offline are queued and synchronised with the backend when a connection is available.

Signing in, staff management, shop administration, subscription checkout and syncing across devices all need the backend, and may need a connection.

What if a change fails to sync?

The sync engine checks network availability, syncs periodically, and keeps rejected changes so they can be retried — they are not silently discarded. You can see the offline and sync status in the app.

Which devices are supported?

Kasuwa is a mobile app, built for Android and iOS. It is mobile-first by design. A browser build exists in the codebase, but it is not yet a full-featured replacement for the mobile app — so we are not presenting it as one.

What languages and currency does it use?

The interface supports English and Hausa, with a language selector in settings. All amounts are in Nigerian Naira (₦ / NGN).

Can my customers pay me online through Kasuwa?

No. Kasuwa records how a shop sale was paid — cash, bank transfer, or credit — it does not process payments for goods. Payment gateways in the app relate to subscription billing only.

How accurate is the profit figure?

The report calculates sales minus cost of goods to get gross profit, then subtracts expenses to get profit. That means it depends on you entering correct cost prices and expense entries.

Sales without a known cost price are flagged as uncosted rather than counted as verified margin. Treat the profit figure as an estimate, not a guarantee.

Can I print or share a receipt?

Yes — you can generate a printable or shareable invoice, receipt or daily report from the device. Direct compatibility with specific Bluetooth or thermal printers is not something we can promise yet.

Will I be alerted when stock is low?

The app shows stock levels and low-stock indicators so you can see what is running out. Push notifications or automatic reorder alerts are not part of what we are promising at launch.

Can I manage more than one shop?

Yes. Owners can create, rename, archive, restore and switch between shops, subject to the shop limit on their plan — Premium currently allows up to five shops.
