Let's go Venda — sell easily. Sell with ease.
Twende Venda is the free merchant app that powers restaurants, shops,
pharmacies, bakeries, groceries, and gas vendors on the Twende platform in
Tanzania. Receive orders from thousands of Twende customers, manage your menu
and prices, track your daily earnings, and hand off deliveries to Twende riders
— all from one app.
WHO IT'S FOR

• Shops, electronics stores, hardware shops, and clothing outlets
• Pharmacies
• Fruit, vegetable, meat, and fish vendors (gang)
• Gas distributors
• Any small business listed on Twende
WHAT YOU CAN DO
Orders, the easy way
• Get instant alerts when a new order arrives — even if you're in another app
(floating bubble)
• Accept, prepare, mark ready, and hand over in a few taps
• Real-time timeline shows how long each stage took so you can speed up slowly
spots
• Cancel or force-cancel stuck orders with one tap
Menu management
• Add items with name, price, prep time, description, and photo
• Track stock — items auto-hide when sold out, low-stock alerts on the dashboard
• Schedule items for specific hours (breakfast menu 6-11am, lunch specials
12–3pm, etc.)
• Bulk-edit: multi-select items to hide, show, or delete at once
• Organize by category
Delivery your way
• Auto dispatch — Twende finds a rider automatically
• Manual dispatch — assign your own rider; the app SMSes them the address, map
link, and delivery PIN
• Mark delivered once your rider completes drop-off
Promotions & growth
• Create promo codes (percentage or fixed discount) with expiry dates and usage
limits
• View star-rated customer reviews and reply to them publicly
• Analytics: revenue, order volume, top-selling items, peak hours, average prep
time, cancellation rate — daily, weekly, monthly
Money
• Daily, weekly, and monthly earnings broken down clearly
• Request payouts to M-Pesa, Tigo Pesa, Airtel Money, or Halopesa
• Payout history with status badges
• CSV export of every order for your accountant
• VAT/tax rate per merchant — applied automatically at checkout
Team & safety
• Staff accounts — give cashiers or managers their own logins with role-based
access
• Operating hours and temporary pause — close for lunch, reopen after
• Do-not-disturb quiet hours for notifications
• Chosen sound per notification
