WhatsApp Store Builder
Turn your product catalog into a real WhatsApp store in minutes: customers browse a branded storefront and send the finished order straight to your WhatsApp.
Scaanme is a WhatsApp store builder made for how the Arab world actually sells. You get a branded storefront with categories, product photos, and prices in your local currency, and every completed order arrives in your WhatsApp as a message that is ready to confirm. There is no website to build, no payment gateway to connect, and no commission taken from a single sale.
Get Started FreeOrders arrive in your WhatsApp
Customers browse your storefront, pick their items, and the complete order lands in your WhatsApp chat, ready to confirm, price, and deliver.
Zero commission on sales
Scaanme charges a flat subscription and never takes a cut of your sales. Every dirham, riyal, or dinar a customer pays goes to you.
No payment gateway required
Scaanme does not process payments. You settle directly with your customer: cash on delivery, bank transfer, or your own payment links and QR codes.
A real storefront, not a chat list
Organize products into categories with photos and clear prices on a branded page with its own shareable link, built to be browsed like a store.
Arabic and RTL done right
Your store renders fully right-to-left with natural Arabic, and serves Arabic and English customers from the same link.
Works with regular WhatsApp Business
No WhatsApp Business API and no approval process. Orders arrive in the free WhatsApp Business app you already use.

What is a WhatsApp store?
A WhatsApp store is a browsable online catalog whose checkout is a WhatsApp message instead of a card payment page. Customers open your store link, browse categories and product photos, choose what they want, and the finished order is sent to your WhatsApp chat. The shop is a link; the checkout is a conversation. That structure fits how millions of small businesses already sell. There is no account for the customer to create, no app to download, and no abandoned checkout: the moment a customer orders, you are already talking to them in the channel where the sale actually closes.
Why businesses in the Arab world sell on WhatsApp
Across the Gulf, the Levant, and North Africa, WhatsApp is where buying conversations already happen. Customers ask about sizes and colors, negotiate delivery, send their location, and confirm with a voice note. Business owners answer from the same phone they run everything else on. Forcing that relationship through a formal website checkout adds friction on both sides. A WhatsApp store keeps the trust of the conversation and adds the structure of a catalog. The customer still talks to a real person before paying, which is exactly how buyers here prefer it, while the seller stops retyping orders from screenshots and scattered messages. Payment stays personal too: cash on delivery, bank transfer, or a payment link, agreed in chat.
From catalog to storefront
The WhatsApp Business app includes a basic catalog, and for a handful of items it works. A Scaanme store starts where that catalog stops. Your products live on a branded page with its own link, organized into proper categories with photos and prices in your local currency, so a customer can actually browse instead of scrolling one long list inside a chat app. You choose from 20+ store templates, present the business under your own name, and grow the catalog as your plan allows: 10 products on Starter, 30 per store on Advance, and 50 per store on Prime. The order still ends up exactly where you want it, in WhatsApp, but the shopping happens in a storefront that sells for you.
