Running a small business is no small feat. Every minute you spend juggling admin is time you’re not spending with your customers or building your brand. The Yoco App helps simplify the day-to-day so you can focus on what matters most: growing your business.

From managing payments to tracking inventory and staff, here are ten powerful things the Yoco App can do that you might not know about.

1. Track every transaction in one place - cash, card, mobile or online

Whether your customers pay by cash, card (via your Yoco card machine), Apple Pay, Google Pay or online through a secure Payment Link, it all syncs to the Yoco App.

You get real-time visibility into your business performance, with detailed analytics to help you make smarter decisions.

2. Get paid in minutes with Instant Payout

Say goodbye to cash flow delays. With Instant Payout, you can access up to R10 000 daily in minutes, straight from the App.

Open the Yoco App and go to ‘View Payouts’ on the home screen. Follow the prompts to get your cash in a snap.

3. Access fast, flexible funding with Yoco Capital

Need a cash injection to grow your business? Yoco Capital offers eligible merchants fast, flexible advances - repaid as a small percentage of future sales.

You’ll be able to check your eligibility, view your offer and track your repayments directly in the App.

4. Organise and sort your products with ease

Avoid awkward pricing moments at checkout. With the Yoco App, you can organise your products by category (like homeware, apparel or food), by brand or even by variants like size, colour or material.

It’s fast, efficient, and helps your team stay on top of stock.

5. Stay on top of stock levels in real-time

Manual stock takes are a thing of the past. The Yoco App lets you track stock levels as you sell, reducing the chance of stockouts or over-ordering.

You can view inventory updates instantly and make changes on the go - giving you more time to focus on the front-of-house.

6. Access your full sales history with filters that make sense

From a single screen, you can see every sale you’ve ever made - when it happened, how it was paid and who rang it up.

Advanced filtering tools let you slice and dice that data by date, payment method or team member to uncover patterns and insights.

7. Manage staff securely with custom access controls

Delegate with confidence. You can add team members to your Yoco App and assign them role-based permissions to control what they can see or do - keeping sensitive data private.

Each staff member gets a unique PIN for secure access, and the latest updates make it easier than ever to manage roles and permissions.

8. Send digital receipts or print them instantly

Choose how you want to share receipts: via SMS, email or printed using a Bluetooth printer.

The App also lets you customise your receipts - add your logo, your business name or a personal thank you message to stay top-of-mind with customers.

9. Reach support fast with live chat and tutorials

Need help? Real people are available via live chat in the App.

Plus, a growing library of how-to videos and FAQs means you can quickly solve common issues - whether you're adding products, applying a discount, or reconnecting your card machine.

10. Send free payment links and invoices

Get paid online without needing a website. The Yoco App lets you generate secure Payment Links and branded Invoices in seconds from WhatsApp or social media.

Customers simply tap to pay using their preferred method - whether that’s card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. You only pay the standard transaction fee - no hidden costs.

Bonus: Access it all on mobile or web

The Yoco App works seamlessly across your phone and desktop via the new Yoco Web App.

So whether you’re behind the counter or behind a laptop, you’ll always have full access to your business tools and data.

Yoco card machines and the App: Better together

All Yoco card machines sync with the Yoco App in real-time for centralised reporting on sales, stock and staff.

Yoco Khumo and Khumo Print also have free, built-in point of sale (POS) software - meaning they can help you with order management as well as integrated stock, staff and product management and reporting. So you can run your business basically from the palm of your hand.

Get control over your business operations

Whether you're just starting out or scaling up, the Yoco App is your all-in-one business assistant - saving you time, giving you clarity and helping you serve your customers better.

Download it today from the App Store or Google Play and see just how much simpler running your business can be.
