Johannesburg, South Africa
Web and software development for Johannesburg businesses
Johannesburg is South Africa's commercial centre, home to banks, mining houses, retailers and a long tail of growing firms. We build websites, online shops and business software for Johannesburg companies, and for teams in Cape Town and Durban too, with POPIA compliance and local payment methods handled properly.
Talk to usSouth African payments, end to end
South African shoppers pay by card, by instant EFT and increasingly through PayShap, the real-time payment system run by the country's banks. Retailers often need several of these at once.
We integrate Payfast, Ozow, Yoco, Peach Payments or Paystack depending on your volumes and fees, including PayShap requests through Ozow. Orders confirm automatically and finance gets reports that match the bank statement.
POPIA and the rules for selling online
The Protection of Personal Information Act came into force on 1 July 2020, with full compliance expected from 1 July 2021, and the Information Regulator enforces it. The Electronic Communications and Transactions Act 2002 also requires online sellers to publish certain details about their business and terms.
We build sites that meet both: clear privacy notices, consent for direct marketing, secure storage and the supplier information ECTA asks for. If you already have a site, we can review it and fix the gaps.
Systems that keep running
Years of load-shedding taught South African businesses not to trust a single server in a single office. We host on reliable cloud infrastructure with backups and monitoring, and build web apps that cope with interrupted connections.
Johannesburg is one hour ahead of Lagos, so our teams share nearly the whole working day for calls, reviews and fixes.
