What We Build

Every tool your business needs, in one place

The best commerce platforms were built for Western markets. Zerrar is built specifically for how African commerce works — Naira, local couriers, WhatsApp-first customers, and multi-channel selling from day one.

Online Storefront

A fully branded store with custom domain, product catalogue, collections, and variants. Share the link anywhere — no app required.

WhatsApp Commerce

Accept orders directly through WhatsApp with automated capture, product sharing, and customer conversations — all in one place.

Payments Built In

Paystack, Monnify and Flutterwave from day one. Card, bank transfer, USSD, pay-on-delivery — every Nigerian payment method covered.

Delivery & Logistics

Real-time quotes from Sendbox, GIG, and Kwik. Book couriers, track deliveries, and manage returns without leaving your dashboard.

Inventory Management

Track stock levels, get low-stock alerts, manage variants and SKUs. Know exactly what you have before your customers run into issues.

Customer Intelligence

Every customer's order history, lifetime value, and behaviour — automatically tracked so you can serve them better and market smarter.

Business Analytics

Revenue trends, top products, conversion rates, and fulfilment performance — everything live, all in one dashboard.

API & Integrations

Webhooks, REST API, and native integrations with Instagram, Facebook, and other channels. Build on Zerrar or connect your existing tools.

The Story

From a problem we lived, to a platform we built

In 2023, we watched a close friend run her Lagos fashion business from three phone apps, a notebook, and sheer willpower. She was generating serious revenue every month — and drowning in operational chaos.

Every order was a WhatsApp message. Every payment was a bank transfer she confirmed manually. Every delivery was a phone call to a courier. She had no customer records, no inventory system, no idea which products were actually profitable.

We knew this wasn't unique to her. Across Nigeria and Africa, hundreds of thousands of merchants were running the same playbook. The tools existed — Shopify, Stripe, Klaviyo — but they were built for Western markets, Western currencies, and Western customers.

Nothing existed for the merchant in Lagos dealing in Naira, shipping to Abuja, selling across WhatsApp and Instagram simultaneously, and needing a courier who actually shows up.

Zerrar is that platform. Built in Lagos. Designed for Africa. Obsessed with the merchant.
