1. Register

Web: open /businessite/register. Mobile: install from Powered Apps — choose by need:

  • RC1 / TA8 — commercial hub / Colourcraft Chat OS track
  • RC2 / TA13 — tourism (Afro Roots) + next verticals; RC2 also for CareerWIL project chat until TA10 hub
  • TA5frozen; do not install for new work
  • iOS: RC1 iOS / install hub at /businessite/ios/install

Create profile with phone + clear face selfie. Watch the how-to reel on the homepage #how-to-register.

Countries & compliance (required)

  • Country of birth — always required for every user (person).
  • Trading country — required for 3% and monthly traders. Defaults compliance (company/tax/payroll rails) to that jurisdiction. Learners / Education may leave trading empty, or set it only when different from birth.
  • When birth ≠ trading, choose trading country only (default) or both (dual compliance — e.g. trade in SA with CIPC/SARS and still track home-country obligations).
  • South Africa in scope: informal traders without CIPC + SARS tax number may be paid as employees (PAYE/UIF). Non-SA trading countries use that country’s company/tax rules — SA PAYE is not forced.

You can change trading country later in chat: set trading country to Kenya · my compliance · compliance dual.

2. Log in on the web (returners / multi-profile)

  • Homepage CTA: Photo login (web)/businessite/login
  • Enter phone, industry, occupation, mother tongue, and a live selfie. Support compares to your profile photo and may grant, block, or report fraud.
  • When granted you get a timed browser session and open full chat. Trading profiles may see a small service-fee disclosure; optional emergency security opt-in is available.
  • Or keep the homepage QR open and on mobile say login to web / scan qr (see guide mobile).

3. Logout

In full chat header use Logout (or open /businessite/logout). You return to the public homepage with a “logged out” notice — not stuck on the login form. Sessions also expire automatically after the configured minutes.

QR-linked browsers can also use Unlink phone to disconnect only the QR link.

4. Accessibility on every route

A fixed bar at the bottom of website pages lets you:

  • Choose Language (preference stored for all routes)
  • Read page — text-to-speech of the main content
  • Voice nav — say commands like “go home”, “photo login”, “open chat”, “roadmap”, “read page”

Details: guide languages.
