What is Crate?
Crate is a commerce platform for small and medium businesses in the United States, in Nigeria and in other markets Crate serves. Crate gives a business one dashboard for its own online store, its Instagram audience and its WhatsApp orders, with products, stock, customers, discounts and payouts in the same place. Crate takes the payment methods of the market a merchant sells in: cards, digital wallets and bank transfer in the United States, and card, bank transfer and local rails such as USSD in Nigeria. Crate prices each merchant in their own market's currency, USD in the United States and NGN in Nigeria. Crate is used from a phone as readily as from a desktop. Each store built on Crate is a separate site with its own domain and catalogue.
One catalog. Every place you sell.
Sell everywhere
List a product once and it is ready to sell on your own store, in your DMs and at your counter. Orders, stock and payments land in the same place, so a sale in chat and a sale in person never fall out of sync.
Turn the products in your feed into a real checkout.
Take the order in chat and log it against your stock.
In person
Ring up walk-in sales from the same catalog.

Choosing a tool?
Built for small businesses in the United States: the payment rails your customers actually hold, the channels you already sell in, and your own store rather than a marketplace. Here is how one admin compares to juggling spreadsheets, chats and notebooks.
Good to know
Read every question we get asked
Questions, answered honestly.
The plain answers, including the honest no's. If setting an expectation down builds more trust than overpromising, we will take that trade.
Still weighing it up? See exactly what you get and what it costs, with no surprises later.
Is Crate a marketplace?
No. Crate gives you your own branded store and the tools to run it. Your customers come to you, not to a crowd of other sellers.
Will Crate bring me customers?
No. Crate does not send you traffic. It gives you a store, channels and payment tools so the customers you reach can buy from you easily and come back.
Can I sell on Instagram and WhatsApp?
Yes. List a product once and sell it from your own store, Instagram, WhatsApp and in person, all from one catalog.
How do I get paid?
Take card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or bank transfer. Money is confirmed instantly and you get an alert the moment it lands. Money from card sales lands in your bank account on a rolling two-day schedule. Nothing to claim, nothing to withdraw.
Do I need a registered business to start?
You can create your store today and add your business details as you go. We will spell out the exact requirements plainly, rather than promise something we have not confirmed.
