Shops trust people, not adverts.
No shop owner in Mushin is going to install accounting software because of a billboard. They will do it because someone they know sat with them for ten minutes. That someone can be you.
You are paid for shops that stay
A fixed amount for every shop still closing its book a month after you set it up, and a share of what that shop pays for as long as it keeps paying. Both rates are written into your agreement before you sign it.
One view of your members
Group pricing from 20 shops, plus a dashboard of the summaries members choose to share — and nothing from the members who do not. Useful for contribution schemes and bulk-buying decisions.
Records instead of guesses
Where a shop approves you, you receive a verified summary: months of trading history, credit behaviour and stock turnover. The shop approves each share, for one lender, and can take it back.
Cooperative or lender? Everything below is written for field agents — write to partners@mykanti.com and we will send the partner terms.
We pay for the shop that is still open in a month.
Nearly everyone selling software pays on the signup, which is why so many people have been signed up for things they never used. We pay on the closed book instead. It costs us the same and it points you at the only outcome that is worth anything to the shop.
On the kept shop, not the signup
A shop that signed up and never closed a book is not a shop. Commission falls due on the ones still closing their books thirty days later, which is the same thing the owner is paying you to care about.
Then every month it keeps paying
A share of that shop’s subscription for as long as it keeps subscribing. Stop visiting and the shops go quiet; keep visiting and the shops you set up this year are still paying you next year.
Into your bank account, monthly
One transfer, with the list of shops it covers, so you can check it against your own notes. Nothing to claim and no invoice to raise.
Becoming an agent
You need a smartphone, a local area you know well, and patience. We supply the rest — and we would rather recruit one trader everybody on the street already knows than ten strangers.
Step 1
Apply and verify
Send your details and NIN. We confirm within two working days.
Step 2
Learn it in a shop
Two days beside someone doing it. Day one you watch and say nothing; day two you do one while they sit at the back. There is no classroom — this job is not learned from slides.
Step 3
Get your kit
Cards with your own name and number on them, the objection sheet, a demo shop on your phone with a month of data in it, and a WhatsApp group that answers in minutes.
Step 4
Onboard, then come back
Do not leave a shop until it has closed one book with you. Come back inside the week and close a second one. That visit is the whole difference between a signup and a shop.

Four things that make a shop stay
Signing a shop takes about six minutes. Keeping it takes the four below, and they all happen on the first evening, before you leave. Our best agents are not the ones covering the most ground — they are the ones who do these four every time, on the same streets as everybody else.
Set the closing reminder for the hour they actually close
Not the hour the default suggests — the hour the shutters come down. A nudge that arrives while the shop is still busy is a nudge that gets ignored, and after two of those it gets turned off.
Close a book together, that same evening
Not a demo — their real takings, their real spending. The first closed book is the one that proves the two minutes are real.
Put in what people already owe them
The credit list is the reason to open the app tomorrow morning. A shop with an empty credit list has no appointment with MyKanti until closing time.
Show them Sunday’s message before you go
Say what will arrive at the end of the week and what it will tell them. A shop expecting something on Sunday closes its book on Saturday.
The order they go in is the same as the first-evening guide — work through that with the owner and you have done all four.
Questions agents ask us
When do I get paid, and how?
Monthly, by transfer to your own bank account, with the list of shops the payment covers. The rates are in the agreement you sign before you start — we do not want anyone finding out what they earn after the work.
What if a shop signs up and then stops?
The share from that shop stops with it, and your other shops are unaffected. This is the honest part of the arrangement: we are not paying for names on a list, so a month spent signing shops that do not stay is a month that pays badly. Most agents work out quickly that two good visits beat five quick ones.
Can a shop pay me in cash?
Yes. You take the cash and activate their plan on the spot — no card, no bank app, no waiting. It is how a good share of shops prefer to pay, and it is one of the reasons an agent can sell where a website cannot.
Do I have to buy anything to start?
No. The tools, the training and the printed material are free, and they stay free. Anybody asking you for money to become a MyKanti agent is not one — tell us.
Can I sell it under my own name?
Not without a written agreement. Reselling, white-labelling or bundling MyKanti into your own product is a different arrangement from the agent programme — a real one, but one we have to paper properly. Ask us and we will tell you straight whether it fits.
Is this full-time work?
For most people, no, and we would rather say so. It is honest work paid per shop, and it suits somebody already trusted on their street — a trader, a POS operator, a phone-repair shop. It is not passive income and nobody is getting rich on it.
