12:00Use cases

An online store from a description

List what you sell, the prices, and how someone orders. Build3 builds the shop and a preview. A WhatsApp button is enough to take the first orders. Card checkout is possible when you connect your own Paystack keys.

A prompt to start from

A shop for ready-to-wear dresses. Eight products with prices, sizes, and photos. A cart, and a checkout that sends the order to WhatsApp.

Start building
  • No subscription
  • Credits do not expire
  • A link when you publish

12:00What you get

A catalog, a price, and a way to order

Start with what a customer needs to buy. Add payment after the shop is clear.

  • Products and prices

    Name the goods, the price, and what a buyer needs to know: size, flavor, portion.

  • A cart or a direct order

    Ask for a cart if people buy more than one thing. A single “order on WhatsApp” button is the right first version for a lot of shops.

  • Paystack, with your keys

    Build3 can wire Paystack into the shop when you want card payments. You provide your own Paystack keys. Build3 does not take a cut of the sale, and it does not hold the money.

  • Orders you can see

    A WhatsApp order leaves the record in the chat. Saved orders inside the site need the database unlock, 100 credits once on the project.

  • Fine on a phone

    Most of these orders will arrive from a phone. Check the product page and the cart at a narrow width before you publish.

  • A link for the bio

    Publish to a build3.site address and put it where customers already are. Your own domain can replace it in the address bar later.

12:00How it works

From a sentence to a link

You describe it, look at the preview, and publish when it is the one you want people to see.

  1. 01

    List what you sell

    Products, prices, and one photo direction. “Use a clean white background” is enough if you do not have files yet. You can replace images after.

  2. 02

    Choose how they order

    WhatsApp, a form, or Paystack. Pick one for the first version so the path to an order is obvious.

  3. 03

    Place a test order

    Go through it yourself on your phone. Then publish, and update the live site whenever the menu changes.

12:00Prompts

Start from one of these

Copy the one that is close, change the names, and send it. The button opens a new account. It does not send the prompt for you.

  • Food

    “A suya menu for a spot in Abuja. Items, prices, a note about spice level, opening hours, and a WhatsApp order button.”

    Start building

  • Fashion

    “A small clothing shop. Twelve pieces, prices, sizes, and a cart that ends on a form with name, phone, and address.”

    Start building

  • Digital

    “A page that sells three downloadable guides. Each has a price, a short description, and a Paystack checkout.”

    Start building

  • Wholesale

    “A catalog of bulk spices. Price per kilogram, a minimum order, and a form that asks for the business name and the quantities.”

12:00Questions

Before you start

Does Build3 process my customers’ payments?

No. A WhatsApp or form order does not charge a card. If you want card payments, the shop can use your Paystack account. The money goes to you.

How do I pay for the build?

You buy credits and spend them as you build. Nothing renews each month, and unused credits stay on the account. A website prompt needs at least 10 credits on the account before it can start. A game prompt needs at least 15. After that, the charge follows the work, so a small change costs less than starting over.

Can I change a price later?

Yes. Ask for the new price in the same project, check the preview, then update the published site. The live link does not change until you update it.

Can I use my own domain?

The build3.site link is included. Connecting a domain you already own is a separate unlock of 50 credits on that project. Build3 does not sell domains. You add the records at the registrar, and the free link keeps working too.
