2. What Is A System? — What We Build & Manage
WEBOST MANAGED — You Run Your Business, We Run Your System
WEBOST offers MANAGED ONLY. We advise, design, build, host & manage your system on LAMP Stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP). You do not buy code. You pay for a managed system + consulting.
What is a System? A system DOES something. A website just sits there. A system takes orders, takes bookings, makes quotes, tracks payments, sends WhatsApp, enrols parents, calculates delivery quotes.
Our Systems — With Examples, Who Needs It, Why, How, Benefits:
- 🍔 Ordering System — R199/mo — Example: Kota / Spaza / Food. Who: Kota shop, spaza, food stall. Why: Miss orders when phone busy, customers don't know menu / prices. How: Customer sees menu → taps item → order auto-fills on WhatsApp → you Accept → pay Cash / EFT. Benefits: More orders, menu visible, edit prices yourself.
- ✂️ Booking System — R199/mo — Example: Salon / Barber / Beauty. Who: Salon, barber, nails, lashes. Why: Miss bookings while busy, no-shows cost money. How: Client sees price list → picks service + date/time → booking goes to WhatsApp → you confirm. Benefits: Bookings while you work, less no-shows, professional price list.
- ⭐ Enrolment System — R199/mo — Example: Creche / Pre-School. Who: Creche, pre-school, aftercare. Why: Parents ask same questions 20x/day, lose parents if reply late. How: Parent sees classes + fees + photos → fills Enrolment Form → form goes to WhatsApp. Benefits: Trust, enrolments at night, no repeated questions.
- 🚗 Driving System — R199/mo — Example: Driving School. Who: Driving school, Code 8/10/14. Why: Learners ask same price questions, lose them to faster school. How: Learner sees packages → picks package + area → booking goes to WhatsApp. Benefits: Packages clear, bookings organised.
- 🛒 Online Store System — R199/mo — Example: Shop / Clothing / Sneakers. Who: Clothing, sneakers, cosmetics, shop. Why: Status pictures get lost, no cart = customer forgets. How: Customer browses products → adds to Cart → cart sends order to WhatsApp → pay Cash / EFT / PayFast. Benefits: Shop open 24/7, cart = bigger orders.
- 🚲 Courier System — R199/mo — Example: Delivery / Courier. Who: Courier, delivery, bakkie hire. Why: Every customer asks "how much from A to B?" How: Customer enters From + To → Quote Calculator shows price → books → booking goes to WhatsApp. Benefits: Quote in 10 sec, bookings organised.
- 🏗️ Quotes System — R199/mo — Example: Builder / Plumber / Electrician. Who: Builder, plumber, electrician, painter, any service that quotes. Why: Quotes on paper get lost, forget who owes you. How: Add items + prices → Tap Send → Quote PDF goes on WhatsApp → mark Paid / Unpaid. Benefits: Quote in 30 sec, professional PDF, get paid faster.
- 📱 PWA App System — R199/mo — Example: Any business with repeat customers. Who: Shop, food, salon, church, school. Why: Customers forget your number / link. Play Store app costs R50k+. How: Customer taps link → Adds to Home Screen → opens like an app, fast on low data. Benefits: On home screen = repeat orders, no Play Store fees.
- ⚙️ Custom System — Build fee once + R199/mo — Example: Your Idea, Built For You Only. Who: Business with multiple services, branches, staff, or NEW idea. Rental with tenant login, School with parent login, Multi-branch salon. Why: Normal system too small. How: Tell us idea → We plan flow + pages → We build custom → You test → LIVE + managed. Benefits: Built for YOU only, your colours / layout / rules, scales — add branches, staff later.
- 💡 Consulting — R500/session — Example: Marketing / Formation / Research / Compliance. Who: Person with idea, new business, or business stuck. Any industry. Why: Don't know what system you need, what to charge, CIPC, POPIA, competitors. How: 1-on-1 WhatsApp / Call → Research + Advice → Written action plan → We implement. Benefits: Advice + Implementation — we don't just talk, we build it.
Pricing: All prices are on pricing.php. If any other page shows a different price, pricing.php applies. Prices are in Rand (ZAR) and include VAT where applicable.
Hosting, SSL, backups included in managed fee. Domain if needed: always in your name — see pricing.php for domain prices.
You own your business name, prices, photos, customers, customer data and domain. We own the WEBOST system / code — see Section 11. You run your business. We run your system.
3. Consulting — What It Is & What It Is Not
Consulting is advice + implementation assistance. We advise on: Marketing, Business Formation, Research, Compliance, Advice + Implementation — for any industry, any business, any idea.
- Marketing Consulting: Customers, pricing, WhatsApp, TikTok, branding. We tell you what to do, and we can build the system to do it.
- Business Formation Consulting: CIPC, structure (sole prop vs (Pty) Ltd), how to start correctly. We advise, we do NOT file CIPC for you unless we agree in writing on WhatsApp.
- Research Consulting: Is your idea viable? Who are competitors? What to charge? We research and advise based on info you give us + public info.
- Compliance Consulting: POPIA, ECTA, CPA, Terms, Privacy — what your business MUST have. We advise and can write Terms / Privacy for your system. We are NOT lawyers. For legal advice, consult an attorney.
- Advice + Implementation: We don't just talk. If you buy a System after Consulting, we build it. Consulting fee is credited if you start a System / Custom System within 7 days — see pricing.php.
- Consulting is 1 session = 1 focus. 1 session = Marketing OR Formation OR Research OR Compliance. Need 2 focuses = 2 sessions.
- Consulting is NOT a guarantee of sales, customers, funding, or CIPC approval. You are responsible for your business decisions.

9. WEBOST Market — Free Listing, Not A Separate Business
WEBOST Market at webost.co.za/marketplace.php is a free listing page for WEBOST clients only — any System, Custom System, PWA App — across South Africa. It is NOT a separate marketplace business, NOT a food app, and WEBOST does not take commission on your sales.
- When your system goes LIVE, your business appears on WEBOST Market automatically, free. No extra fee.
- When your system pauses / cancels, your listing is removed from Market.
- Customers on Market contact you directly via your WhatsApp on your own system. WEBOST does not hold customer money, does not deliver, does not guarantee sales.
- WEBOST may remove a listing for illegal content, fraud, or non-payment.
10. Your Responsibilities
- You must give us correct content, logo, prices, and contact details.
- You must own / have rights to images / text you give us.
- You must keep your Client Pass / login safe. Never share it. WEBOST will never ask for your bank PIN / OTP.
- For Custom Systems with seller / driver / staff logins: you are responsible for who you give logins to, and what they do on your system.
- You must not use your system for illegal, hateful, or fraudulent content. We may suspend it if you do.
- You are responsible for your own sales, deliveries, customer service, and disputes with your customers. WEBOST is not your seller or delivery driver.
- For Consulting: You are responsible for your business decisions. Our advice is guidance, not a guarantee.
11. Our Liability
We build with reasonable care. We are not liable for loss of profit, loss of sales, or downtime caused by third parties (hosting provider, domain registrar, PayFast, WhatsApp, internet outage). Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us for that system in the last 3 months — for Custom System, limited to build fee + last 3 months managed fee. For Consulting, liability is limited to the R500 consulting fee for that session. Nothing in these Terms removes your rights under the Consumer Protection Act.
12. Intellectual Property
- Systems / Custom Systems / PWA Apps: You own your content, brand, customers, sales, customer data and domain. We own the WEBOST system / code, even if we built a Custom System for you — because it is built on WEBOST system code.
- WEBOST logo, name, and WEBOST Market name remain ours.
