Different layers of the sale

eGrow runs your order backend — confirmations, shipping, returns. Timi runs the WhatsApp front of the sale, from first reply to the M-Pesa confirmation.

No website, no storefront required

If you sell off Instagram and WhatsApp alone, Timi needs no website. If you have a store to run, eGrow is built for that layer.

Flat KES versus USD tiers

Timi is one flat KES price. eGrow bills in USD at per-plan tiers, so a Kenyan shop compares real monthly shillings carefully.

Common questions

  • Do I need an online store for Timi?
    No. Timi sells off WhatsApp from your Instagram or ads link, with no website required. eGrow is an operations layer for stores that already have orders.
