To sell phones and gadgets online in Ghana, list each model with its storage, colour, condition and price, decide how buyers pay for expensive items, and deliver with a waybill and tracking page. On Paylead, options handle storage and colour with their own stock, buyers pay by MoMo or card, and deposits protect you before a rider goes out.

Paying for expensive items
Gadgets are expensive, so decide how you protect yourself:
- Pay now online by MoMo or card. Margins on phones are thin, so consider passing the fee on: how to make customers pay the transaction fee.
- A deposit by payment link before the rider leaves, with the balance on delivery.
- Pay on delivery only for cheaper accessories: offer pay on delivery.
