What happens if the internet goes down?

Khumo devices keep taking card payments when the signal drops, and the transactions process once you're back online. Yoco Counter needs a connection to run. It connects over Wi-Fi or its built-in SIM, which switches to mobile data if your Wi-Fi fails.

Khumo Print 2 adds a built-in printer for food trucks, stalls and bills at the table. Pick your business type above to see the full setup.

You buy it. Hardware is paid once-off, with no contracts and no monthly rental. On the Core plan you pay R0 a month and only pay per sale. Plus (R249) and Pro (R499) are monthly per location, add features like loyalty and kitchen stations, and have no long-term commitment.
