TextMint for Thrift and okrika sellers
TextMint builds your thrift business a real website so buyers can see what is actually available, then takes orders on WhatsApp with no confusion about who got there first.
Free during launch. No signup, no card. Just text us.
Thrift moves fast. You post a bale item on status, three people reply first within a minute, and someone always feels cheated when they do not get it. TextMint gives your thrift business a real website where every piece is shown once and marked sold the moment it goes, so your status stops being the only record of what you have and who called it.
The hard parts
You post one item on status, five people reply at once, and now you are the referee deciding who actually gets it while the others accuse you of favouritism.
Old status uploads never disappear from people's memory, so you get asked about pieces you sold weeks ago, on top of the new ones you just posted.
A status full of clothes on a bed does not look like something worth sending money to first. New buyers hesitate, ask a dozen questions, or just do not order at all.
How TextMint helps
Every piece goes up once with its price and photo, and comes down the moment it sells, so buyers see what is truly available instead of guessing from old status uploads.
Customers tap a piece and land in your WhatsApp with that exact item attached, so the first genuine order is clear and you are not stuck arguing over screenshots of timestamps.
TextMint sends a payment link and confirms the transfer landed before you hold or ship the piece, so you are protected from fake alerts and buyers who never actually pay.
It helps you message past buyers when a fresh bale is sorted and ready, so your loyal customers get first pick before you post to everyone else.
What it looks like
Thrift by Bimpe used to post fresh bale finds straight to WhatsApp status, and every good piece triggered an argument over who messaged first. With TextMint, she got a real website where each item is listed once, marked sold instantly, and ordered through a WhatsApp button that locks in the first genuine buyer. Now Bimpe spends less time settling disputes and more time sorting the next bale, and buyers trust her enough to pay before she even sets a piece aside.
Illustrative example, not a real customer.
Yes. You tell TextMint what is new or sold as you sort each bale, and the website updates in minutes. It is built for stock that turns over fast, not a fixed catalogue.
The Order on WhatsApp button attaches the exact piece to whoever taps it first, so you have a clear record instead of relying on memory or who commented first on a status post.
You can keep posting status to bring people to your website, but every piece also lives on the site itself, so buyers can check what is available any time, not just when your status is fresh.
TextMint is free during launch. You can get your thrift business a website and an order system without paying anything upfront.
