Get paid with what your customers already use
WAStore doesn’t process payments or take a percentage. You add your methods in Settings → Payment, and customers see them when they order.
Cash on delivery (pouzeće)
Turn on “Cash on delivery”: nothing to set up, and the customer pays when the order arrives.
Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay (Stripe)
On Pro you connect your own Stripe account: customers pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and the order is marked paid automatically.
Bank transfer
Add “Bank transfer” with your name and IBAN; customers copy it at checkout and send you the receipt on WhatsApp.
KEKS Pay or Aircash
Add an “Other” method called KEKS Pay (or Aircash) with your phone number: customers see it at checkout and send you the confirmation on WhatsApp.

Selling on WhatsApp in Croatia
In Croatia small sellers (clothing, jewellery, cosmetics, homemade food and gifts) take orders on Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp, and many customers still pay on delivery. WAStore gives you a shop with prices in euro and a cart, so orders arrive complete with name, address and items, and you pay no commission.
Turn on cash on delivery, add your IBAN for customers who pay ahead, and on Pro take cards through your own Stripe account. Set a delivery fee for your city and another for the rest of Croatia and the islands, or offer pickup.
Shops in Zagreb, Split, Rijeka and Osijek, and across the country.
Delivery, registration and payments in Croatia
Delivery and couriers
Hrvatska pošta, GLS, DPD and Overseas Express cover the whole country including the islands, and BOX NOW and Paketomat lockers are a cheaper option for small parcels. Couriers collect cash on delivery (pouzeće) for a fee.
Registration and tax
Most start as a craft business (obrt), often a flat-rate one (paušalni obrt) with a simple lump-sum tax, registered online through e-Obrt. VAT registration is needed once turnover passes €60,000 a year. Food sellers must be registered as a food business before they start.
How customers pay
Cash on delivery is still common, especially for first orders. Bank transfers by IBAN, often by scanning the barcode on a payment slip, are the usual way to pay ahead, apps like KEKS Pay and Aircash are popular for small amounts, and cards come through your own Stripe account on Pro.

WAStore vs other options in Croatia

Yes. Turn on Cash on delivery; your courier collects the money and transfers it to you. Mention any fee in the instructions so customers see it at checkout.
Can I sell on WhatsApp with a paušalni obrt?
Yes, many small online sellers use a flat-rate obrt. WAStore works the same with or without one.
Can I charge a different delivery fee in your city and for the rest of Croatia and the islands?
Yes, on Pro: create one delivery zone in your city and another for the rest of Croatia and the islands, each with its own fee (or “to be confirmed”). The free plan has one flat delivery fee and free pickup.

No. It works with regular WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business, and neither you nor your customers install anything.
