Frequently asked questions

Answers for operators, finance leads, and partners

SterlingMadi is designed to be commercially clear without overclaiming capability.

Who is SterlingMadi for?

Pricing

SterlingMadi is built for freelancers, consultants, agencies, micro-enterprises, SMEs, MMEs, and LMEs that sell services and need clients, projects, invoices, and billing in one place.

Can I use SterlingMadi with my business bank account?

Payments

SterlingMadi is designed to work alongside your existing business banking setup. It focuses on client operations and payment coordination rather than replacing your bank.

Do you support South African businesses?

Compliance

Yes. The product direction, billing language, and payment readiness are tailored for South African service businesses while staying understandable for cross-border clients.

Can I create VAT invoices?

Payments

Yes. SterlingMadi supports VAT-ready invoice structures so teams can issue professional client invoices without overcomplicating accounting operations.

Can I track proposals, contracts, projects, and invoices in one place?

Operations

That is the core value proposition. SterlingMadi is designed as one operational workspace rather than a collection of isolated point solutions.

Do you integrate with Paystack or local payment providers?

Integrations

Paystack is structured in the current MVP payment flow. Local provider and banking integrations are shown with clear live, beta, or coming-soon badges so expectations remain honest.

Integration hub

Build around the tools your business already touches

Payments, accounting, communication, productivity, and local banking readiness are all part of the commercial story.
