How Kiki Kamanu set up an E-commerce store with Shopify and Rave in 10 minutes!
Kiki Kamanu, a growing fashion label founded by Kiki, a designer with strong roots in Nigeria and the United States, wanted an ecommerce solution to provide their local and international customers with a more convenient way to order stylish clothing online. More importantly, they wanted to still be able to use their existing Rave payment integrations so they could manage all their transactions and customer databases on a single dashboard.
As part of our promise to help African businesses scale globally, we partnered with Shopify to bring — an internationally recognized fashion label- Kiki Kamanu into the ecommerce game.
Since 2012, Shopify has been on a mission to make ecommerce better for everyone. Their platform allows business owners focus on selling great products, their customers can buy online with ease. Today, Shopify powers over 500,000 businesses across different industries like electronics, jewelry, clothing and books.
“As a brand with clients from all over the world, Rave provided a unique and distinctive payment processing solution that seamlessly accepted both local and offshore payment in the respective transaction currencies. We had struggled with this issue on our shop.kikikamanu.com ecommerce site prior to finding Rave. Other options did not offer a satisfactory solution to address our operational requirement.
Upon selecting Rave, we found the Flutterwave team to be both responsive and efficient to addressing all our concerns and working tirelessly to continually meet our expectations. We’re pleased to have truly world-class partner in jointly serving our stylish and discerning global Kiki Kamanu clientele.” — Kiki Kamanu
With Rave as a payment option, Kiki Kamanu customers can order the clothes online and pay using their Naira or international debit and credit cards. Their customers in Nigeria can also pay using select verified Nigerian bank accounts. We’re excited to help grow Kiki Kamanus’ online customer base by leveraging this special partnership between Rave and Shopify.
