About Paurtal

We're building the operating system
for Africa's WhatsApp economy

Two billion people use WhatsApp. In Africa, it's not just messaging. It's how business gets done. Paurtal gives every business the infrastructure to operate, grow, and scale through the platform their customers already live on.

Started with a simple observation

In Cameroon, a shop owner manages orders via WhatsApp. In South Africa, a salon books appointments through group chats. Across Africa, millions of businesses run entirely on WhatsApp. But they're doing it manually.

No CRM. No order tracking. No analytics. Just endless scrolling through chat history trying to find that one customer's order from last Tuesday.

Paurtal was built to change that. Not by replacing WhatsApp, but by turning it into a complete business operating system. Every conversation connected to orders, payments, customer data, and growth tools.

We started in Douala, Cameroon. Today we serve businesses across Africa and continue building for the world's most mobile-first markets.

Our values

What drives us

Africa first

We build for how business works here. Mobile money, local languages, local market dynamics. Not Silicon Valley assumptions adapted for Africa.

Simplicity wins

A shop owner in Douala should be able to set up Paurtal in minutes. If it needs a manual, we haven't built it right yet.

Customer obsession

Every feature starts with a real business problem. We spend more time talking to customers than writing code. That's by design.

Where we operate

Two markets. One mission.

Cameroon

Douala. Where Paurtal was born. Serving entrepreneurs and growing businesses across Central and West Africa's most dynamic commercial hub.

South Africa

Johannesburg. Our expansion market and growth engine for Southern Africa, serving SMEs across the continent's most developed business ecosystem.
