Meiring de Wet
Founder, CheckoutJoy. Cape Town.
Every platform assumes Stripe and dollars. We don’t have Stripe here, and South Africans want to pay in Rands. I built CheckoutJoy in 2020 to fix that for my wife’s membership business. It’s still exactly what we do.
From South African creators
CheckoutJoy has been absolutely brilliant in helping me set up to charge my South African customers in Rands, from platforms that only offer Dollars or Euros. Meiring has offered excellent personal service, and loads of great technical advice. He helped me set up my products and memberships in five minutes! I highly recommend this amazing tool, thats so simple and also works so well without any complicated fiddling from me!

CheckoutJoy saved the day. I was a very stressed out technically challenged business owner trying to figure out how to make payment possible in my currency ZAR and with a local bank in South Africa. The solution was CheckoutJoy. From the user friendly tutorial to a free 15 min call. Meiring was helpful, calm and reassuring. He made the process feel seamless. Thank you CheckoutJoy, excited for launch day and to have found this local business

Questions
Do my courses stay on systeme.io?
Yes. Courses, communities, memberships and funnels stay where they are. CheckoutJoy only replaces the checkout, then tags the contact so your systeme.io automation enrols them.
How do I connect systeme.io?
Create a public API key in your systeme.io settings and paste it into CheckoutJoy. No Zapier.
PayFast or Paystack?
Both take Rand payments and tag buyers in systeme.io. Choose PayFast if you sell quarterly or 6-monthly memberships or want free trials.
What about international buyers?
Use a geo-routed checkout flow: South Africans pay in Rands with PayFast or Paystack, everyone else sees dollar pricing on PayPal or another gateway.
What happens when I refund a buyer?
CheckoutJoy removes the tag from the contact in systeme.io, so a “Tag removed” rule can revoke their access.
Do buyers re-enter their card for an upsell?
No. Paystack charges the card they just used. PayFast charges a secure token created with the first payment.
What does it cost?
From R497 a month after a 14-day free trial, with no CheckoutJoy transaction fees. Gateway fees still apply. See pricing.
