Your shop on the marketplace and on WhatsApp
One catalogue, two channels. Orders arrive already paid.

UPMARCHAND gives merchants the tools to sell anywhere, without the administrative burden
UPMARCHAND doesn't start from scratch: infrastructure already in service, payment methods everyone uses, and cities served from day one.
The answer
Every piece answers a problem merchants actually have. Nothing that doesn't help you sell.
One catalogue, two channels. Orders arrive already paid.
The payment is secured before the parcel leaves.
Our partners cover cities and peri-urban areas.
Stock, orders, payouts: a single dashboard.
From 5 %, published and fixed. No hidden fee.
Vertical integration
Where others stitch suppliers together, UPMARCHAND runs on products built inside the group. One team answers for the whole chain.
Payments
Escrow, payouts, disputes
The buyer's money is held until delivery is confirmed, then paid out within 48 hours. This is our system, not a supplier's: the deadline is ours to answer for.
Delivery
Routes, proof, deadlines
The network that picks up the parcel and carries it. Courier position, receipt code, timestamped photo — the proof that protects you comes from here.
Coverage
Addressing where there is no address
Finding a buyer in a neighbourhood with no street names is the real obstacle to delivery in Africa. UPMAP is our answer to that exact problem.
Neither Jumia nor the regional marketplaces own their payment and delivery chain. That is the difference this page defends.

What sets us apart
Every mechanism exists because a merchant told us what was missing. None of them is here to make the list longer.

100 %
Every payment goes through escrow. No exception, no setting to switch on.

5
Orange Money, MTN, Wave, bank card, cash on delivery. Everyone can pay.

0
Only a buyer who received their order can rate. Reputation cannot be bought.

1 link
One link to share in a conversation, and the order lands in your dashboard already paid.

3 countries
Urban and peri-urban at launch, courier position and photo proof at every step.
Coverage
The question that stops a sign-up deserves better than a line at the bottom of an FAQ.
Peri-urban areas are served within 72 hours. Sign up and we'll tell you the day your city opens.

Payment processing and delivery fees depend on the operator contract and the logistics model chosen. They will be detailed here, at the same level of precision, before opening.
Frequently asked
Yes, entirely. The Starter plan is free with no time limit. You only pay a 10 % commission on the sales you actually make. No subscription fee, no bank card asked for at registration.
After each confirmed delivery, your money goes automatically to your mobile money or bank account within 48 hours. Nothing to request, no threshold to reach.
Every delivery is proven by a timestamped photo and a one-time code entered by the buyer. If they confirm receipt and then dispute it, that evidence protects you, and our team arbitrates on the record.
You don't have to choose. UPMARCHAND completes your social selling: you share your shop in a conversation, and the order lands in your dashboard already paid. Your habits don't change, your security does.
Yes, cash on delivery stays available. We simply recommend switching on online payment too, which sharply reduces refusals at the door. You keep the choice, order by order.
