The CheapData handbook

Everything you need to buy, sell, and stay in control.

A straightforward guide to CheapData Shop. Start as a customer, become an agent, or use both sides of the platform from one account.

01

Quick start

You can browse and buy bundles directly from the home page.

For customers

Choose your network, select a bundle, enter the recipient number, and complete payment. The bundle is sent to the number you provide, so check it carefully before paying.

For agents

Create an agent store to publish your own bundle prices and share a store link. Customers buy through your store while orders are processed through the platform.

Good to know: The green delivery banner on the shop shows the current delivery expectation and support availability.

How to buy a bundle

The checkout flow is designed to be completed in a few clear steps.

  1. Select the network. Pick MTN, AirtelTigo, or Telecel based on the recipient's active SIM.
  2. Choose the bundle. Compare the size and price, then press the buy button on the bundle you want.
  3. Enter the recipient number. Use the Ghanaian mobile number that should receive the data. Review every digit.
  4. Review the order. Confirm the network, bundle size, recipient number, and total before continuing to payment.
  5. Complete payment. Follow the Paystack checkout instructions. Do not close the payment page while your transaction is processing.
Before you pay: A successful payment cannot always be reversed when the recipient number was entered incorrectly. Treat the confirmation screen as your final review.
03

Payment and delivery

Payments are handled through Paystack, and delivery status is available after checkout.

Payment status

Wait for the Paystack result before retrying a payment. If money was deducted but the order is not immediately visible, keep your reference and check the order tracker first.

Delivery status

Delivery is normally expected within the time shown on the site. Some network services may take longer. Keep the recipient phone available to confirm the bundle arrived.

Keep your reference

Your payment or order reference helps support locate the transaction. Save it until delivery is confirmed.

Do not pay twice

If a page appears slow, check the tracker and your payment notification before submitting the same order again.

04

Track an order

Use the Track Orders item in the menu to check an order after checkout.

Open the menu, choose Track Orders, and enter the order or payment reference requested. Read the latest status and follow any next step shown. When contacting support, include the reference, recipient number, network, and approximate payment time.

05

Your account

Signing in gives you access to features that need a saved identity.

My Account

Use your account area to view your profile and account-related activity. Keep your contact details current so support can reach you when needed.

My Wallet

Logged-in users can use the wallet area to review wallet transactions where available. Check transaction details before raising a payment question.

Notifications

The bell icon can show updates and announcements. Open it regularly for important service notices.

Account safety

Never share a password, payment approval, or one-time code with another person. CheapData support will not need your secret payment credentials.

06

Become an agent

Agents get a branded store page for selling data bundles to their customers.

  1. Open Become an Agent. You can find it in the menu or from the agent page.
  2. Complete registration. Enter your business, WhatsApp, payout, and store information accurately.
  3. Pay the registration fee. Complete the registration payment and keep the payment reference.
  4. Set bundle prices. Your retail prices must meet the platform's wholesale minimums. You can edit or add bundle plans later.
  5. Share your store. Once active, use View Store or the share controls in your dashboard to send your store link to customers.
07

Run your agent store

Your dashboard is the control room for products, orders, payout status, and store visibility.

Edit or add bundles

Open Agent Dashboard, choose Edit/add bundles, and publish the sizes you want to sell. Set a retail price that is not below the displayed wholesale cost.

View your store

Use View Store to check the customer-facing page. Confirm the store name, prices, availability, and share link before promoting it.

Payout account

Complete your settlement bank or MoMo details accurately. The dashboard shows the status of your Paystack payout account and any verification notice.

Promote responsibly

Share your official store link on WhatsApp and social channels. Tell customers to verify the store name and payment page before completing an order.

Agent habit: Check your dashboard regularly for price changes, payout notices, announcements, and product availability.
08
