## EliteTeQ Inbox in Uganda

Businesses in Uganda pay the same US-dollar prices. Card, charged in Kenyan shillings at the day’s rate. Replies inside the 24-hour window after a customer writes are free. Meta charges for template messages you start (marketing, authentication and most utility templates), priced by the customer’s country, so a template to a Ugandan number is billed at Meta’s Uganda rate. Chats that start from a Click-to-WhatsApp ad are free for 72 hours. Meta bills these charges to your own Meta account; they are not part of the EliteTeQ price.

In Uganda, customers in Kampala ask about prices and delivery on WhatsApp before they buy. EliteTeQ Inbox keeps every enquiry visible to the team until it is answered.

Customers in Uganda write in English, Luganda and other languages. Your team replies the way they write; template messages can be created in English or Swahili.

Office hours are set day by day for each number. A common setup in Kampala: weekdays open, Saturday mornings open, Sunday closed. Anyone who writes while you are closed gets your away message, at most once every 12 hours, and the chat waits at the top of the list for the morning.

- **Numbers:** +256 (e.g. +256 772 000 000)
- **Office hours:** Run on Kampala time (EAT)
- **Weekend:** Saturday and Sunday
- **Templates:** English or Swahili
- **Price:** From $29 a month, in US dollars
- **Paying:** Card, charged in Kenyan shillings at the day’s rate

## Selling on WhatsApp in Uganda

Kampala dominates formal trade while regional towns run on agricultural cycles and cross-border movement.

### [Mbarara](https://eliteteqpos.com/mbarara/)

Western Region · the commercial centre of western Uganda

The cattle and dairy belt sets the earning calendar, so trade follows milk and livestock payments more than salaries. The binding constraint is agricultural supply credit tracked across those cycles, with mobile money as the standard tender. Mbarara is the trading hub of western Uganda and the centre of the country's cattle and dairy belt, so a meaningful share of commerce is agricultural supply and produce trade rather than urban retail. The same prices apply to a team in Mbarara as anywhere else.

### [Gulu](https://eliteteqpos.com/gulu/)

Northern Region · the largest city in northern Uganda and its main trade hub

Traders supply the surrounding districts and cross-border buyers, so wholesale and retail often run from the same shop. The binding constraint is recording mobile money correctly and keeping sales going when power or network drops. Gulu is the commercial centre of northern Uganda, supplying surrounding districts and trade heading north toward South Sudan. The same prices apply to a team in Gulu as anywhere else.

### [Kampala](https://eliteteqpos.com/kampala/)

Central Region · Uganda's capital and commercial centre

Downtown carries dense wholesale market trade while the surrounding hills hold the higher-basket retail and restaurants, each with a different payment mix. Kampala holds the bulk of Uganda's formal trade, split between dense downtown wholesale markets and the higher-basket retail and restaurant areas on the surrounding hills. Mobile money is the default tender for most transactions. The same prices apply to a team in Kampala as anywhere else.

Growth includes 2 numbers and Business 3; each extra number is $10 a month. Facebook and Instagram inboxes don’t count as numbers.

**Do you set it up for us?**

You can do it yourself, free.

**Why is EliteTeQ Inbox priced in US dollars in Uganda?**
