Simple, Transparent Pricing

1. Service Overview

Wapme enables South African sellers to create WhatsApp-based storefronts. Wapme is not a payment processor, courier, or intermediary in buyer transactions. Premium users can fully remove Wapme branding (white-label).

2. Eligibility

• You must be 18+ and reside in South Africa to open a shop
• Verified status is granted after: 10+ completed orders, no active disputes, payment setup, and 30+ days of activity

3. Prohibited Use

Illegal products and services are strictly banned. You are responsible for ensuring full compliance with South African law. Automated scraping, cloning, reverse-engineering, or IP theft of the Wapme platform is expressly forbidden without permission.

4. Payments, Refunds & Chargebacks

• Wapme supports PayFast and PayPal integrations
• We do not process payments, act as escrow, or intervene in transactions unless abuse is reported
• All payments are subject to the terms of the respective payment providers
• All sales are final — Wapme does not issue refunds
• You may not initiate chargebacks without first contacting Wapme support to resolve the issue
• Violation of this policy may result in permanent account suspension
• A 14-day free trial is available to new users — no credit card is required

5. Security

• All sensitive credentials are encrypted using AES-256-CBC
• CSRF tokens and session timeouts are enforced across the platform
• Wapme enforces rate limits, audit logging, and fraud detection for all accounts

6. Account Control

You may access, update, or delete your account at any time via your dashboard. Wapme will retain essential data only for legal compliance or operational continuity, and never sells your data to third parties.

7. Buyer Experience & Branding

Buyers are not required to create accounts. Future updates may allow optional buyer profiles for order tracking and dispute support. White-labeled shops may omit Wapme branding entirely. Verified shops may display a “Verified by Wapme” badge. Wapme may step in to protect buyers at our sole discretion.

8. Fair Use & Tier Structure

Misuse of Wapme resources, scraping, spamming, or attempts to exploit platform vulnerabilities are prohibited. Tiers and feature access (including premium benefits) are detailed at wapme.co/pricing.php.
