Sell on WhatsApp, no website required.

Two ways to sell. One inbox for your customers. Zero apps to install.

Wavo turns WhatsApp into a full storefront for South African businesses — an AI agent that takes orders on your own number, or a spot on Wavo's shared marketplace number with delivery included. Either way, customers order the way they already chat.

Direct mode

Run it on your own number

Connect your WhatsApp Business number. Wavo's AI agent answers every chat, takes orders, and remembers your customers. You get a full dashboard — conversations, AI configuration, WhatsApp setup, analytics.

For businesses with their own WhatsApp Business presence

Marketplace mode

List on Wavo's shared number

No tech setup needed. Customers message one shared Wavo number, browse businesses by category and area, and order. Wavo's own driver fleet delivers — you just prepare orders and get alerted.
