A website for your South African business, so easy you can build it from your phone

They look you up before they call. Kwickly is a website builder for South African businesses. Tell it your business name and what you do, and it makes your website. You change what you want on your phone or computer, then put it online.

Your free web address could be: your-business.kwickly.co.za

It's free to start, with no card and no account. You only pay when you put your site online, from R99 a month, and there's no contract.

Three ways to get a website

You can hire someone, build it yourself, or let Kwickly do most of the work. Here's how they compare.

Kwickly compared with hiring a web designer and using a do-it-yourself website builder

Web designer prices are from ProCompare's 2025 guide. Everything else describes what's typical, and every provider is different. A designer is still the better choice if you need something built specially, like an online shop.

R5,000 would pay for about 4 years of Kwickly.

That's the low end of what a simple website from a designer costs once-off. On Kwickly's Starter plan, it covers about 50 months, with your hosting, padlock and every change you make included.

A website that suits your kind of business

A salon needs bookings, a restaurant needs a menu and a plumber needs a big call button. Choose your type of business and see the whole example website.

Search for sparky, kota or loodgieter, and Kwickly knows what you mean.

WhatsApp comes first

Your WhatsApp button has a message already typed, so customers only need to press send.

Bookings know our holidays

On the Business plan, online bookings close on South African public holidays by default.
