Your website

Is the website really free? Is it a real website?

Yes. It comes with Nfelia at no extra cost: no designer, no setup fee.

You change the words, colours and photos from your phone in Shop Studio. A .com address of your own is not part of Nfelia for now. More about your website.

Can I change my website address later?

You choose your address when you set up your shop, and you can change it once, from Shop Studio. Names that look like a bank, a phone network, a government body or an official account are checked by our team before they go live.

Do you take a cut of my sales?

No. Customers pay into your own account, by bank transfer or mobile money, and the money is yours. Nfelia takes no commission; you only pay the monthly price.

How do customers order from my website?

Can I turn a quote into an invoice?

Yes. When your customer agrees, open the quote and tap Accept and make the order. The order and its invoice are made from the quote, so you never type it twice. More about invoices and quotes.

Can I take a deposit and collect the balance later?

Yes. Record each payment as it comes in. The invoice shows the deposit paid and the balance due, each payment gets its receipt, and a PAID stamp appears when they finish paying. Receipts and payments, step by step.

How do I know who owes me?

Nfelia shows who owes you, how much and who is late, and overdue money shows on your Home. Send a polite WhatsApp reminder in one tap: it says the balance and how many days late. You can keep track of what you owe your suppliers too. More about the debt tracker.

Will Nfelia tell me when money comes in?

Yes, once you allow notifications on your phone. Nfelia tells you when a payment is recorded, when a website order or booking arrives, and when something is running low. You choose which alerts you get.

Stock, orders and deliveries

Does my stock update itself?

Can customers track their order?

Yes. Every website order gets its own tracking link: received, paid, on its way, delivered. The customer sees it when they order and gets it by email if they gave one, and you can send it on WhatsApp from the order in one tap. Once the order is delivered or collected, they can leave a review, so reviews come only from real orders. More about orders and tracking.

How does proof of delivery work?

Make a delivery note for what you are sending. When the goods arrive, your customer types their name on their phone to confirm, and signs with a finger too if you switch on signatures for delivery notes in Settings. The confirmed note stays in Nfelia, so there is no argument later. Deliveries, step by step.

Bookings, tasks and reminders

Can customers book an appointment and pay a deposit?

Yes, on your website: for hair, nails, fittings, events and shortlets. Customers pick a free time and pay the deposit into your account. Only free times show, so there is no double booking. You confirm in one tap and it goes on your calendar. More about bookings.

Will Nfelia remind me?

Yes. On mornings with something planned, Nfelia sends you the day at 7am Nigeria time (6am in Ghana, 9am in Kenya): deliveries, appointments and money due. Any task can also remind you at the time you choose, by email and on your phone. Reminder times follow Nigeria time for now: in Kenya they come two hours late and in Ghana an hour early. On iPhone, add Nfelia to your Home Screen first (tap Share, then Add to Home Screen). More about tasks and reminders.

I’m a fashion designer. Where do I keep measurements?

Save each client’s measurements in the notes on their customer profile, next to their quotes, deposits and balances. Each item on an order has a note too, for measurements or a name to print. In Tasks, the ready-made Sewing job plan takes you from measurements to delivery. Nfelia for fashion designers.

Your team

Admins can also see expenses, debts and profit, give refunds, cancel orders and edit your shop. Only you change the business details, payment accounts, team and billing.

What if someone on my team is not honest?

Every sale takes the items off your stock, and every change to stock is written down with what caused it, so missing goods show up quickly. Each person signs in as themselves, and you can remove someone at any time.

Your records and your data

Is my business information safe?

Your records belong to you. We never sell your data, and we never market to your customers: the only emails Nfelia sends them are about their own orders, bookings and the papers you make for them, in your shop’s name. Nfelia runs over a secure connection, passwords are stored scrambled, never as typed, and each business sees only its own records. After a while unused, Nfelia locks and asks for your fingerprint, face or password again. Read our Privacy Policy.

Can I take my records with me?

Yes. Open Your records in the menu, under Data. Your Records Book puts everything in one Excel workbook in your colours, with totals, a chart of your months and a code anyone can check. It is free once in every month you pay for, or ₦7,500 at other times. Your plain copy, every record as CSV files, is free whenever you ask, whatever your plan. Invoices, receipts and your profit report download as PDF whenever Nfelia is open for you; if it pauses, your plain copy and Records Book stay available for the 12 months we keep your records. More about the Records Book.

How can someone check that my invoice is genuine?

Every invoice and receipt, and every Records Book, carries a code. Anyone can scan it or type it at nfelia.com/verify to see that it is genuine, with its amount and status. How the Records Book and its codes work.

Using Nfelia on your phone

Do I need a laptop or a lot of data?

No laptop needed. Nfelia opens in the browser on any smartphone, and you can add it to your home screen so it opens like an app, with no app store download. It needs a little data, like WhatsApp does, and pages you have already opened still open when the network drops. Use a laptop too if you like; your records are the same on both.

How do I get the Nfelia app?

Nfelia goes on your home screen straight from the browser, with nothing big to download. On Android, open your browser’s menu and tap Install app or Add to Home screen. On iPhone, tap Share in Safari, then Add to Home Screen. Install the app, step by step.

I’m not good with computers. Can I still use it?

Yes. If you can send a WhatsApp message, you can send an invoice on Nfelia. We help you set up for free, and we are one WhatsApp message away if you get stuck. You can also book a call with our team.

Which countries does Nfelia work in?

Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and Cameroon, in English. Your customers pay you the way they already do there, such as bank transfer, mobile money or M-Pesa. Sign-ups are open in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and Cameroon.
