Overview
Welcome to your journey toward streamlined business management with Blipply. In this first lesson, we will guide you through setting up Blipply to manage your informal shop’s finances. By integrating Blipply into your daily operations, you’ll simplify payment tracking, record transactions effortlessly, and gain essential insights into your shop’s performance. Let’s start by establishing a secure, well-structured foundation for managing your business with confidence.
Setting up Blipply for merchants
To begin, download the Blipply Merchant app and register your business details. Complete the KYC verification to ensure your account is fully verified and functional. After that, link your shop’s preferred wallet—such as M-PESA or Vooma—to handle transactions seamlessly. Connect your Vooma Till wallet to accept payments from any wallet via Blipply. This setup will allow Blipply to document your sales and expenses accurately and create a comprehensive record of your business activities. Ensuring your account’s security is crucial; set a strong PIN and consider enabling multi-factor authentication for additional protection.
Tracking sales and expenses
With your Blipply account ready, you can now document both sales and expenses. All transactions made through Blipply are automatically recorded, saving you the trouble of manual entries. Should you need more customisation, you can adjust tags to align with your specific tracking needs. Having accurate and up-to-date records will simplify profit calculations and lay the groundwork for financial opportunities in the future.
