Questions

Everything merchants ask before opening a store on Reyva, the e-commerce platform for selling online in Arabic and English: what it is, what it costs, how customers pay and how to move an existing store.

01

What is Reyva?

Reyva is an e-commerce platform for merchants across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), for opening an online store in Arabic and English. It gives you a storefront, a checkout with Apple Pay, cards and cash on delivery, selling on WhatsApp, Rey the AI shopping assistant, shipping and one dashboard for products, orders and customers.

Who is Reyva for?

Reyva is for anyone who sells online, from a maker opening a first store to a retailer with several branches. Merchants use it for fashion, beauty and fragrance, electronics, food, home goods, digital products and services.

Do I need a developer to use Reyva?

No. You choose a theme and shape it in a visual editor, add your products and connect payments from the dashboard, all without code. Developers can still extend a store through the API on the plans that include it.

How long does it take to open a store?

You can open a store in minutes: choose its name and address, pick a theme and add your first products. Guided setup walks you through payments, shipping and the rest.

02

How much does Reyva cost?

Reyva has four plans: Free, Basic at AED 99 a month, Growth at AED 299 a month and Pro at AED 999 a month. Paying yearly costs the same as ten months, so two months are free.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan lets you open a store and make your first sales at no cost, and you can move to a paid plan whenever your trade asks for more.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Every new store gets 14 days of the Growth plan free, with no card required. When the trial ends, the store moves to the free plan unless you choose a paid one.

Which plan includes Rey and WhatsApp?

WhatsApp selling starts on the Basic plan. Rey, the AI shopping assistant, and the dashboard assistant come with the Growth and Pro plans.

03

Which payment methods can my customers use?

Customers can pay with Apple Pay, credit and debit cards such as Visa and Mastercard, or cash on delivery, all in the same checkout.

Does Reyva support cash on delivery?

Yes. Cash on delivery is built into Reyva’s checkout, beside Apple Pay and cards, so customers who prefer to pay at the door can still order online.

How do I receive my money?

Card and Apple Pay payments are processed securely by Stripe and paid out to your bank account. Cash on delivery is collected by your courier.

How does shipping work?

You set delivery options and rates for each market, and print shipping labels from the dashboard. Every order is followed from checkout to the customer’s door.

04

What is Rey?

Rey is Reyva’s AI shopping assistant. It answers your customers on WhatsApp at any hour, recommends products from your catalogue, fills their cart, sends the checkout link and tells them where their order is.

Can I sell on WhatsApp with Reyva?

Yes. Connect your WhatsApp Business number to your store, and customers can ask, order and follow their delivery on WhatsApp. Add Rey to answer and sell for you, day and night.

Does Rey replace my team?

No. Rey handles the everyday questions and orders, and hands the conversation to your staff whenever a customer needs a person.

05

Can my store be in Arabic and English?

Yes. Every Reyva store works in Arabic and English, with proper right-to-left layouts, and each customer sees it in their own language.

Can I sell in several currencies?

Yes. Create a market for each country you sell to, with its own currency, language and prices, on the plans that include several markets.

Can I use my own domain?

Yes. Connect any domain you own on the Basic plan and above. Every store also gets a free address on reyva.ae.

Which themes are available?

Reyva has themes for fashion, beauty, luxury and every kind of shop, among them Aurora for every kind of shop, Velour for editorial fashion, Maison for luxury, Alara for fashion and Carmine for beauty and fragrance, and new ones keep arriving. Each can be reshaped in the visual editor and opened as a live preview on the themes page.

06

Can I move my store from Shopify, Salla or Zid?

Yes. Write to us and we will help you plan the move of your products and customers to Reyva, whichever platform you sell on today.

Can I keep my domain when I move?
