Shopify's #1 complaint (86% of Trustpilot reviews are 1-star) is holding merchant funds for 6–12 months with no explanation. Their support is an AI chatbot that loops. Shopify Payments doesn't work in Kenya — you need expensive third-party apps just to accept M-Pesa.

M-Pesa on Shopify

Based on publicly available feature lists as of March 2026. Shopify requires 3rd-party apps for M-Pesa in Kenya. Shopify fund-hold data sourced from Trustpilot reviews (March 2026).
"I'm not technical. Will I manage?"
Most sellers go live in under 60 minutes. No code, no developer, no tech knowledge needed. If you can use WhatsApp, you can use Greatr.
"What if my customers don't trust an online store?"
Professional templates, verified M-Pesa payment, order tracking, and customer reviews together build more trust than any WhatsApp chat.
"I already sell fine on Instagram. Why change?"
Instagram shows your products. Greatr sells them. No DMs to manage, no screenshots, no «nimekupeleka» follow-ups. Just orders and payments.
"Is my customers' M-Pesa data safe?"
Greatr never stores M-Pesa PINs. All payments go directly through Safaricom's secure API. We are PCI-compliant and SSL-encrypted.
"Does Greatr ever hold my money?"
Never. This is Shopify's #1 complaint — they freeze merchant funds for months with no explanation. Greatr processes payments daily with no holds, no thresholds, no surprises.
"Will the price suddenly jump?"
No. Your plan price is locked. We don't do revenue-based pricing tiers that auto-upgrade you when you succeed (that's what BigCommerce does). Flat monthly price, always.
"What happens when I outgrow the plan?"
Upgrade in one click when YOU choose. No data migration, no downtime, no rebuilding your store. Everything moves with you instantly.
"Can I try before I pay?"
Yes. Full 7-day free trial. No credit card required. No restrictions. If it's not for you, cancel before day 7 and pay nothing.
From real sellers
I made my first sale 3 hours after signing up. I cried when I saw the M-Pesa confirmation come in automatically. No screenshots. No chasing. Just money.

Used to spend 3 hours every evening replying to Instagram DMs and manually sending M-Pesa numbers. Now I just check my dashboard in the morning.

Shopify held KES 280,000 of my money for four months with no reason. Switched to Greatr. No holds, no surprises, payment in my account same day.
