Is Cash on Delivery the recipe for Kenyan business? A MUST READ!

Cash on delivery is the method of payment that allows customers to purchase products on a company’s website or make orders via phone and pay for them upon delivery on their doorstep or office, this form of business is as old as 1635 in England but in Kenya, it has only began taking shape and could possibly be the recipe of Kenyan businesses.

According to JUMIA, Kenya’s No. 1 online retailer Cash on delivery accounts for over 55% of its transactions in Nairobi and Mombasa, the two cities the company offers the mode of payment. Parinaz Firozi, MD Jumia Kenya says Cash on delivery has helped the company acquire new customers.

“Over 60% of our customer acquisition has been through cash on delivery. There is zero risk for the customer since they only pay for the product if they like it, there are no cost implications if they reject the product, the delivery man just takes it back. Its stress free,” Firozi adds.

In a country where credit card penetration remains a major headache for financial institutions and the government with several flopped initiatives, Mobile money transfer remains the alternative. 

FIVE TIPS TO PLANNING A STRESS FREE FAMILY HOLIDAY

FIVE TIPS TO PLANNING A STRESS FREE FAMILY HOLIDAY:

The best part about travelling with family is that apart from bonding and catching up in a different environment, it’s a superb way to explore the world and open up to learning together. Family holidays also present good opportunities to make decisions where everyone’s opinion is respected. Again, travelling together offers the parents the luxury of having fun without worrying about what could be happening back home! But, as is with many all-inclusive decision-making-model, planning a family vacation can leave one feeling depressed and fatigued to the point that they consider curling back under the duvet and dreaming off to their destination! To avoid such, Jovago.com, a leading online hotel booking site advises parents to plan in time, and resist the temptation of playing Super/man/woman. “Depending on the age of your children, assign duties and involve them in listing activities or places they would like to engage in or go to” Says Lillian Gaitho Head of PR for the Jovago. Involving the whole party allows you to start off on a uniform pace and expectations. Below are a few more tips to consider:

Your Budget vs Your Dream

Holidays and family vacations are known to shoot holes through purses and pockets. This is no fable. You however can avoid falling into the rut race by planning and saving ahead of time, this will allow you enough time to balance your ledger books accordingly. Planning ahead of time will also give you time to ask around for packages and deals. Try a few ideas, consider a few places. Do not skip over a favorite destination because it’s known to be a bit over your budget-who knows you might be lucky to catch them smack on their season discounts, or might have special rates for that particular room. One more important issue, find out what your package offers; are all ‘holiday activities’ covered in the cost? There is no fun in taking kids to a windsurfing location if all they do is watch others have the fun.
