Building the operating system for developing world merchants
We are building the operating system to allow merchants in the developing world to sell online. We started by helping those in LatAm instantly launch online to monetize their audience and sell over social media. We help merchants create a storefront, process payments, and manage fulfillment in one simple platform.
Cuanto is a mobile-first platform that lets merchants create an online store quickly and start selling within minutes. It markets itself as a no-commitment way to set up, manage, and sell across multiple channels, backed by Y Combinator.
Users download the Cuanto app, answer 3 questions, add products, and their store is ready to accept payments. The product includes store setup, product descriptions/photos, inventory management, delivery/shipping rates, discount codes, customer ratings, and automated post-sale marketing emails. Merchants can create and share payment links for channels like WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok, email, and more, and manage everything from a mobile app.
Who it’s for: Merchants in the developing world seeking a fast, low-friction way to start an online store and sell across social and messaging channels.
