Enterprise-Grade
Trust & Security.
From local M-Pesa transfers to global credit card processing and digital asset delivery, we protect every transaction in the LocalSoko ecosystem.
Global Payment Routing
LocalSoko uses Paystack (a Stripe company) as our verified payment gateway. Whether a buyer pays in USD or KES, funds are securely captured and automatically routed. We never store credit card data on our servers.
Verified Merchant Payouts
Every merchant must undergo strict Know Your Customer (KYC) verification before processing payments. Payouts are strictly locked to verified M-Pesa Till numbers or official International Bank Accounts to prevent fraud.
Digital Asset Protection
When purchasing an eBook, course, or software, files are delivered using cryptographically signed, time-limited URLs. This ensures that digital goods cannot be easily shared or pirated across the public internet.
Data Isolation & Privacy
Powered by Supabase, our database implements strict Row-Level Security (RLS). Store data, inventory logs, and financial records are heavily isolated—meaning one merchant can never access another merchant's analytics or buyer data.
SokoPOS Physical Safety Notice
While our digital infrastructure is fortified, physical merchants using SokoPOS must remain vigilant against in-person "social engineering" scams.
Always verify successful funds in your LocalSoko Orders Dashboard or official Paystack app before handing over physical goods. Do not rely solely on customer SMS screens.
