How to Sell Online in Namibia Without a Smartphone

Some of the best products in Namibia are made by people who have never owned a smartphone. Baskets in Okongo, dried fish in Ruacana, wood carvings in the Kavango, fresh produce in Omusati. Until now, being offline meant being invisible to buyers in Windhoek, Swakopmund or Oshakati.

Meet the VanTele Local Agent. An agent is a trained, ID-verified VanTele representative in your town. They sit with you, register your shop, photograph your products, write your listings and manage your orders. You keep making what you make. The agent handles the internet part.

Your money stays protected. Buyers pay VanTele, not the agent. The money is held in escrow until your goods are delivered and confirmed, then paid out to you. Agents never touch your money, which is exactly why you can trust the arrangement.

What it costs. Listing products is free. VanTele takes a small commission only when something sells, starting at 3.5% and falling to 2% as your shop grows. The agent earns a share of VanTele's commission, never a cent of your price.

How to start. Ask for the VanTele agent in your town, call us on 081 785 5801, or have a family member visit vantele.com.na and request help. One visit is usually enough to get your first products online.

Your products deserve customers beyond your village. Let us introduce them to the whole country.
