Quick answer
KAZI is invoicing software for South African freelancers, agencies and small businesses. It sends professional invoices in Rand, handles VAT, and takes payment through Paystack, the payment processor live in South Africa, so clients can pay by card, EFT or mobile money and the amount settles to your account in ZAR. Unlike overseas-only tools, it accepts both local and international payments.
The problem
Most invoicing tools were never built for a Rand business
The well-known names price in dollars, settle in dollars, and hand you a payment option your local clients don't recognise. You end up sending banking details in the invoice notes and waiting on a manual EFT with no confirmation.
How KAZI does it
Rand-first invoicing on a payment rail your clients trust
KAZI presents in ZAR, applies VAT correctly, and puts a Paystack pay link on every invoice. Local clients pay by card or EFT and you see it confirmed instantly. Overseas clients pay in their own currency and it settles to you in Rand. And the invoice is one part of a system that already holds your clients, projects and cash-flow reports.
What you get
Built into KAZI, and connected to the rest of the work you run there.
Rand-first, VAT-aware
Present and total in ZAR, add VAT with discount applied before tax, and localise tax names for South Africa and 22 other countries.
Paystack payments
Card, bank transfer, mobile money, Apple Pay and Google Pay on every invoice, settled to you in Rand with instant confirmation.
Local and cross-border
Bill a Cape Town client in Rand and a Berlin client in Euro from the same tool. International payments settle to you in ZAR.
Reminders and late fees
The eight-step reminder ladder and automatic late fees after three days mean you stop writing "just following up" emails.
Recurring and retainers
Set a retainer once and the invoice sends itself each month, escalates reminders on its own, and applies late fees.
Books-ready exports
PDF invoices with paid and overdue watermarks, plus CSV and XLSX exports your accountant or SARS filing can use.

FAQ
Common questions
Does KAZI support ZAR and VAT?
Yes. Invoices present and total in Rand, and VAT is applied with the discount taken off before tax. Tax names and rates are localised for South Africa. Confirm your own VAT registration and filing obligations with your accountant.
How do payments work in South Africa?
Payments run through Paystack, which is live in South Africa. Clients pay by card, bank transfer or mobile money, and the money settles to your account in ZAR. Payment-security certifications belong to Paystack as the processor.
Can overseas clients pay me?
Yes. International clients pay in their own currency by card; the amount settles to you in Rand and their bank handles the conversion. You always see the exact figure before confirming.
Is it only invoicing?
No. Invoicing sits inside a wider system with clients, projects, proposals, a client portal and cash-flow reporting. You can run the whole business from it, or just use the invoicing.
How much does it cost in Rand?
There is a free plan, and paid plans start at $19/month priced per business, not per seat. The pricing page shows local-currency figures for South Africa.
