Lead generation & market intelligence for African commerce

Every online store, a lead in full.

Terrain tracks every eCommerce store across Africa — what it sells, what it's built with, who it pays, and how it moves — and turns the whole market into qualified leads you can push straight into your workflow.

The technology behind every store

We read the stack across every leading eCommerce platform.

Whatever a store is built on, Terrain detects it — and the themes, apps, payment and shipping tech layered on top.

What Terrain does

One market — turned into leads, intelligence and a weekly digest.

We read every store on the continent — the platform it's built on, the payments and tech it runs, the group it belongs to, the clones chasing it, and every migration — then hand it to you three ways: a live lead dashboard you can push into Sheets, your CRM, Slack or WhatsApp; the market intelligence behind it; and a weekly digest tuned to your role.

The platform

From the map to your pipeline.

Explore the market in your Overview, filter the lead dashboard to exactly the stores you want — by market, platform, payment tech or launch date — then push them into the tools your team already runs.

Every signal we read

The whole market, read four ways.

Under every lead sits the full picture — what a store is built with, who it pays, the group it belongs to, and the clones chasing it.

Switchboard · migrations

Watch the market switch rails.

Stores don't stay still. We track every move off an old platform or provider and onto a new one — who's switching, where, and to whom — so you see share change before it shows up anywhere else.

Groups & portfolios

One brand, many storefronts — stitched together.

The biggest operators run dozens of stores across their own domains. We link them back into a single group, so a portfolio reads as one player instead of scattered noise.

Radar · clones & fraud

Find the stores cloning your customers.

Radar fingerprints each of your customers' catalogues — images, SKUs, prices — and sweeps the market for storefronts copying them, then keeps watching for new ones. Brand abuse, caught early.

Platform, theme, apps, shipping — and the payment rails merchants actually choose at checkout, ranked by adoption and tracked as they rise and fall across each market.
