TextMint for Tailors and fashion designers

Your styles deserve a proper gallery, not a scattered chat

TextMint builds your tailoring business a real website with your best styles on it, then takes bespoke orders and deposits right inside WhatsApp.

Free during launch. No signup, no card. Just text us.

Custom fashion is a trust business. A client sends a style picture, argues over the price, sends measurements as a voice note or a blurry photo, and disappears until fitting day. TextMint gives your work a real website that shows off your styles properly, and a calmer way to take orders and deposits so you are not piecing together a client's request from three different messages.

The hard parts

Measurements arrive as scattered voice notes

One client sends numbers in a text, another in a voice note, another as a photo of a tape measure. By the time you sit to cut, you are scrolling back through the chat trying to remember whose numbers are whose.

Endless back and forth over styles and prices

A client sends a picture from Instagram and asks how much, you explain the fabric and the style will cost more, and half the conversation goes in circles before they decide, if they decide at all.

You buy fabric on a promise that disappears

You start a job on a verbal agreement, buy the ankara, cut it to size, and then the client stops replying. Now you are holding fabric cut to someone else's body.

How TextMint helps

A style gallery that sells for you

A real website showing your best finished pieces, styles, and starting prices, so new clients see your work properly before they ever message you, not just one photo at a time.

Order on WhatsApp button

Clients tap a style they like and land in your WhatsApp with the style already attached, so you start the conversation already knowing what they want instead of guessing.

Deposits confirmed before you cut

TextMint sends a payment link for the deposit and confirms the transfer landed before you touch the fabric, so you are not gambling on a client who might disappear.

Reminders for fittings and repeat clients

It helps you follow up on quotes that went quiet, and message past clients when owambe season or a new ankara style comes in, so your regulars come back to you first.

What it looks like

Zainab Couture / Sabon Gari, Kano

Zainab Couture used to take orders entirely through WhatsApp voice notes, and measurements got mixed up more often than she liked to admit. With TextMint, she got a real website showing her finished styles and starting prices, an Order on WhatsApp button that captures the style up front, and deposits confirmed before any fabric was cut. Now a client's request arrives clean, the deposit clears first, and Zainab spends less time untangling chats and more time sewing.

Illustrative example, not a real customer.

Frequently asked questions

Can the website capture measurements for me?

The order lands in your WhatsApp with the style and details the client shared, and you take the actual measurements the way you already do, whether that is a chat, a call, or a fitting. TextMint keeps the request organised so nothing gets lost.

Do I need professional photos of my work?

No. Photos from your phone of finished pieces are enough to start. TextMint helps you present them well, and you can add better shots any time you have them.

How does the deposit protect me from no shows?

TextMint creates a payment link for the deposit and confirms the transfer before you start work, so you know the money actually cleared instead of trusting a screenshot that might be fake.

Is it free to set up?

TextMint is free during launch. You can get your tailoring business a website and an order system without paying anything upfront.
