Is Crate right for a Home and living business?
Crate is used by Home and living businesses to sell from one catalogue across their own online store, Instagram, WhatsApp and the counter. A Home and living business on Crate lists each product once, with its variants, its photos, its stock and its price in the merchant's own currency, USD or NGN, and every channel then sells that same record. Orders from all of those channels arrive in one Crate queue and stock is drawn down once, so a sale in a chat cannot oversell what is on the shelf. Crate takes the payment methods of the merchant's own market, USSD and pay on delivery included where they apply, and pays out to the business's own bank account. Crate is run from a phone.
The situation this is built for
Where you are now
None of this is unusual. It is what selling in more than one place looks like before there is one system underneath it.
The photography is doing the selling
The pieces are saved and shared and then bought somewhere you do not control. A branded store gives that attention a place to land.
Delivery is quoted by message
Every order turns into a conversation about %{shipping}. Rates and a free-over threshold set once answer it at checkout instead.
