Flamingo
turns your
phone into
a till.
One QR. Every bank. No card machine, no monthly fees, no “ag sorry, I don’t have change” awkwardness. You’ll be taking real payments in the time it takes to boil a kettle.
Shops like yours, already sorted.
Whatever’s written above your door, the money works the same way. The toolkit behind it is the part that changes.
Flamingo ProSpazas & shops
Scan the barcode, take the money, watch the shelf.
Flamingo KitchenRestaurants & taverns
Orders to the kitchen, split the bill, tips to the right waiter.
Flamingo KitchenCoffee shops & takeaways
Made to order, paid before it's poured.
Flamingo BeautySalons & barbers
Clients book themselves. Deposits stop the no-shows.
The counter
No card machine.
No “sorry, cash only.”
They scan the code on your counter and pay from whatever bank app is already on their phone. You hear the ching, you hand over the goods. The money settles into your account the next business day.
A card machine costs R3,499.
Flamingo costs nothing.
Zero hardware
Print the QR. Stick it on the counter. That's the whole setup. No card machine, no power adapter, no paper rolls.
Every bank
Capitec, FNB, Absa, Nedbank, Standard, Tyme, Discovery — if it opens a banking app, it pays you.
No monthly
You pay when you get paid. 1% on PayShap, 1.5% on Pay-by-Bank (min R1). No subscription, no minimums, no surprise fees at month-end.
Make it, sell it, or book it.
Take payments free, whatever you trade. Then pick the toolkit built for how you work — not for what your shop is called.
