Use cases

Ways to use AfroPin in retail & supermarkets

Your own gift card

Sell gift cards for your stores in fixed or open amounts, accepted at every branch and online.

Festive seasons

Christmas, Easter and Sallah gifting, without stockpiling hampers or printing paper vouchers.

Sold at your own tills

Your staff sell your gift cards at the checkout, on the same till that redeems them.

Cards on display

Printed cards by the checkout, activated for the amount the customer pays.

How it works

Live in four steps

  1. 01

    We build your programme

    Amounts, part payments, expiry and the terms on the card, with your stores and tills added.

  2. 02

    Your cards reach more shelves

    Resellers on the network sell your gift cards beyond your own counters.

  3. 03

    Customers pay with a gift card

    The customer shows a QR code or reads out their code at the till or online checkout.

  4. 04

    See it all in one place

    Sales and redemptions by branch and by till, with payouts to your bank account.

The platform

What you get

Every account comes with the same network, security and support. These are the parts that matter most here.

Android POS app

Installs on the POS devices on your counters and reads gift card QR codes with the scanner or camera.

Web till

A till that runs in any browser, for stores without an Android device.

Staff sign in with a PIN

Each staff member uses their own PIN, so you know who served each customer.

Daily limits per till

Cap what each till can redeem or sell in a day.

Masked codes

Tills and receipts show codes masked, so staff never see a customer's full code.

Reporting by store

Redemptions, sales and top-ups by branch and terminal, with exports.

Questions

AfroPin for retail & supermarkets, answered

Something else? Contact our team

Can we sell our gift cards ourselves?

Yes. A brand account sells and accepts its own gift cards at your tills, sends them in bulk to staff or customers, and offers printed cards at the counter.

Can we sell other brands' gift cards?

That is what reseller accounts do. Each business has one account, so talk to us about which fits how you trade.

Do we need new hardware?

No. The web till runs in any browser, and our Android app installs on the POS devices you already have.

Can customers spend a card over several visits?

Yes, if your programme allows part payments. The balance carries over until it runs out or expires.

Who pays the redemption fee?

You choose: absorb it, or pass it to the customer, sale by sale.
