Pay online through PayDunya (mobile money, card or bank transfer) or in cash on delivery where available for your address. The available options are shown at checkout.

Delivery

Delivery covers selected communes of the Greater Lomé area and configured zones. Available zones are shown when you enter your delivery address.

The courier will try to reach you. After repeated failed attempts the order may be returned to the seller and handled as a refused order.

Payments

Online payment runs through PayDunya: mobile money, bank card and bank transfer. Cash on delivery is available for eligible addresses.

The order is not confirmed. You can retry payment from your cart or choose another method.

Contact support with your payment reference. Verified payments for failed orders are refunded.

Refunds go back through the original payment method. For cash on delivery, the refund is agreed with you directly.

Contact support to request deletion. Transaction records are kept as long as Togolese law requires, then your data is removed.

Accounts can be restricted for fraud, fake orders, abuse of promotions, repeated policy breaches or legal requests. You will be informed where practical.

Sellers

Create an account and submit a seller application with your business details. Lafinda reviews and approves applications, then your shop goes live with a free period or trial according to the current configuration.

In Vendor OS, open Products, then Add product. Fill in the name, description, price, stock, images and category, then save.

Your plan (for example Starter, Business or Professional) controls your product limit, features and Lafi AI level. You can see your current plan, remaining days and all plans in the Subscription section.

Current prices, durations and your expiry date are shown in the Subscription section of your Vendor OS. Prices are managed by Lafinda and can change; the applicable price is always the one shown before you pay.

Depending on configuration you enter a grace period and then either the Free plan or suspension. Your products, orders and data are never deleted. You can renew or upgrade at any time.

No. Sales recorded in your own physical Point of Sale are your own business transactions. Lafinda commission applies only to marketplace sales through the platform.

You get a notification for each new order. Orders appear in Vendor OS under Orders with buyer, products and delivery details.
