Stop losing track of your Idumota Market sales
Cartons go out to retailers on trust and part-payment, and the running balance lives in a margin note rather than a record either side can check.
A Lagos Island wholesale cluster covering drugs, cosmetics, provisions and general merchandise. TrustAm gives you a cash book, a debt book and a way to collect money that all live in one WhatsApp thread — so the record writes itself while you serve the customer in front of you.
The four things that leak money in a Idumota Market shop
You do not know if yesterday made money
Yesterday exists across four WhatsApp threads and your memory. A daily close summary answers it every evening — sales, cash versus transfer, expenses, best item and money still owed.
Sales tracking →The notebook has forty names and you have stopped chasing most of them
A debt book that remembers the amount, ages it, and politely chases the customer on WhatsApp by itself on the due date — with a pay button attached, so you are not the one asking a neighbour for money.
Debt tracking →You cannot tell a real alert from a fake one until your bank app loads
A unique account number per order and a stamped receipt issued to both sides the instant money lands. The customer’s screenshot stops being worth sending.
Fake alert handbook →You restock what you remember selling, not what sold
Stock counts itself down from every sale, and before a supply run you get a ranked list of what actually moved and what has been sitting for ninety days with your capital inside it.

Common Questions
How do I keep records of my Idumota Market sales without a notebook?+
Let the payment do it. When you collect money through TrustAm, the sale is written automatically with the item, amount, customer and time. Cash sales take one line by text or voice note. At close of business you get a summary of the day — sales, cash versus transfer, and what is still owed.
What if I lose network inside the market?+
Messages send when the signal returns, and your records are held on our side rather than on your phone. Nothing is lost if the network drops mid-sale, and nothing is lost if the phone is.
Can my shop assistant use it too?+
Yes. Staff can take orders, request payment and record sales. Only the owner approves money leaving the account, so you can leave the stall without losing either the record or the control.
How do I stop fake alerts at Idumota Market?+
Each order gets its own account number that expires afterwards, so a payment is matched to one specific order rather than guessed at. Both you and the buyer get a stamped receipt the moment the money actually lands, which makes a customer's screenshot irrelevant. Our fake alert handbook covers the full set of tricks.
Is there an app to download?+
No. It runs inside WhatsApp, where your customers already message you. Setup is a link, your details and a PIN — about two minutes, standing at your stall.
