Tihada gives creators in Kenya a web storefront for selling digital products and receiving gifts through one link, with M-Pesa payments and payouts. Product options include downloads, private links and bundles such as guides, meal plans, presets, templates, cookbooks and classes. Creators can customize their profile, theme, links and product lineup, then preview the storefront on mobile. Buyers pay with M-Pesa without creating an account; access to a product is normally issued after payment confirmation. A dashboard tracks sales, visits, conversion, orders and balances that are available, pending or paid out. Creators can share their storefront link through Instagram, TikTok, YouTube or WhatsApp bios. Supporters may also send a gift without buying a product, choosing an amount and optionally adding a message; 90% goes to the creator. The Free plan costs 0.00 USD per free: the first five completed product sales are commission-free, then product sales incur a 7.5% fee. Gifts have a separate 10% fee. Creators can request M-Pesa withdrawals once their available balance reaches KSh 100. Standard-tier earnings settle after 12 hours; trusted-tier earnings may become available immediately.
