Questions people ask first
Can my store charge in XOF?
Yes. Choose Mali as your store’s country and XOF as its currency.
Can I sell to other countries too?
Yes. Add markets for other countries, each with its currency and delivery fees, and show only the payment methods you can honour there.
Can buyers pay by Orange Money?
Your store takes cash on delivery and bank transfer. The transfer option shows the payment details you write — you can write your Orange Money number there.
