What does it cost to sell on Mooud?
The shop commission depends on the category: 4% on farm, food, pharmacy; 6% on tech, home; 10% on fashion, shoes, accessories, beauty, wellness, services, alcohol, tobacco, adult. Food, farm produce and pharmacy are lower because those categories run on thin margins. Stays are 12%, events 10%, and a wallet transfer is 0.5%.
How do sellers get paid on Mooud?
Payment is held in escrow when the buyer pays and released on a clock tied to how the item is delivered: 12 hours after a hand-over, 72 hours for a local courier, 14 days for something posted — or sooner if the buyer confirms. The seller sees the release date at the point of sale. Payouts go to M-Pesa, Airtel Money or a bank account.
Does Mooud work with M-Pesa?
Yes, and it is one of several. M-Pesa sits alongside Airtel Money, MTN, Wave, bank transfer and card, across 21 payout countries and 97 currency markets. The app offers the rails that actually work where you are rather than a single global one.
How much does Mooud take from a Skip driver?
Less than the 18% ceiling the NTSA Transport Network Company Regulations 2022 set. The rate in force is shown to every driver in the app before they accept work.
Can I cancel a booking or an order on Mooud?
Yes, and what it costs depends on how close to the moment you are. A stay is free to cancel more than seven days before check-in and 40% inside the last day. A shop order is free to cancel before the seller starts preparing it; once it has been posted it becomes a return instead.
Is Mooud safe to book a stay through?
Hosts submit identity documents that a person reviews, and the platform can require a guest to hold a national ID, passport or resident permit before booking. Documents are reviewed by eye rather than checked against a government register, which is a real control and a weaker one than an identity provider.
What countries does Mooud work in?
It is built in Nairobi for East Africa, and carries currency and payout-rail definitions for 97 markets with payouts available in 21 countries.
