Kloud Commerce Raises $100K Seed Round to Accelerate African Retail’s Digital Transformation

We are thrilled to announce that Kloud Commerce has successfully raised $100,000 in funding—a pivotal milestone in our mission to revolutionize retail technology for semi-formal African retailers. For years, the POS till management systems that many of these retailers depend on have been predominantly offline, a challenge that COVID-19 dramatically underscored by crippling business agility and growth. In response, our innovative solution, PayPecker #OMNI, was born. This headless commerce platform is purpose-built to empower semi-formal African retailers and quick-service restaurants (QSRs) by seamlessly bridging the gap between offline operations and the digital world. Our “Plug-n-Play” APIs are engineered to integrate with existing systems instantly—often enabling businesses to go live within days and at zero cost—providing a much-needed antidote to the technological constraints that have long hindered progress. By building on the existing infrastructure, PayPecker #OMNI acts as a force multiplier, proving its capability to drive digital revenue growth by up to 3x per outlet. This funding round will fuel further product enhancements, expand our reach, and deepen our support network so that retailers can fully leverage their investments in legacy systems while enjoying the benefits of modern, modular technology. The raised capital will be strategically used to bolster our platform’s capabilities and refine the customer experience, ensuring that even the most cash-strapped enterprises can access advanced, cost-effective solutions. As we build a future-proof pathway for digital transformation, Kloud Commerce continues to transform challenges into opportunities, driving sustainable growth and competitive advantage for semi-formal African retailers across the continent.
