Getting started
Getting started with your online shop
Your Sell Now Now shop is a website, a back office and a till, all run from the WhatsApp on your phone. Here's how to find your way around, in a few minutes.
Updated 13 November 2026
What you get
- Your own website at an address like yourname.sellnownow.co.za, ready straight away.
- An assistant on WhatsApp, on 060 551 1218, that adds products from your photos and changes your website when you ask.
- Product photos and descriptions made by AI.
- A back office on your phone for everything else: orders, sales, your shop details and the look of your website.
- A free till for market days, on your phone or tablet.
The free trial lasts 14 days, with up to 5 products and R100 of AI credit. You don't need a card for it.
Your first product
WhatsApp us a photo of something you sell, with its name and price. The assistant writes the description, makes the website photos and puts the product on your website, usually within a minute. Setting up your first product is free.
A photo, with: Lavender candle R120
Lovely! ✨ I made the photos and the listing. It's on your website now: be-magical.sellnownow.co.za/p/lavender-candle
It doesn't have to be a good photo. A quick one on the kitchen table is fine: the AI keeps your product exactly as it is and only changes the scene around it.
Signing in to your back office
Your back office is at your web address with /admin at the end, like be-magical.sellnownow.co.za/admin. It works in your phone's browser: there's nothing to install.
- Open your web address with /admin at the end.
- Tap “Email me a sign-in link”, or WhatsApp us “back office link”.
- Tap the link you get. It signs you in once, within 15 minutes, and that phone stays signed in.

Want one part of it straight away? Name it: “back office link: bank details” signs you in right there.
The More section: make it yours
We set up your website with our words and look. Take some time to go through the More section in your back office and set up the site exactly the way you want it:
- Shop details: your shop's name, your about text, how customers reach you, your bank details and your logo.
- Look of your website: the colours, fonts and layout.
- Website wording and Pages: the headings in your own words, and pages like Our story.
- Social media, Photo style, Team & channels, and more.

Getting help
Send “help” on WhatsApp for the help menu. Send the number of a topic and you get a short guide: what the assistant can do for you, and where to do it yourself. The menu is free: it uses no AI credit.
Rather talk to someone? Send “talk to a person” and tell us what's wrong: our team at The Webjockeys will WhatsApp or phone you. We're here Monday to Friday, 9:00 to 17:00.

Questions
Do I need a computer?
No. Everything works on your phone: WhatsApp for adding products, and your back office and till in the phone's browser.
What if I'm not good with technology?
If you can send a photo on WhatsApp, you can run your shop. Ask the assistant in your own words, like you'd ask a friend, and it answers in plain words.
