Built in SA. Built for Everyone.
Two software whizzkids, a creative chartered accountant, and a big idea — Kwikwap has been making powerful websites simple since 2005.
From Mobile Apps to Thousands of Websites
Kwikwap was born in Cape Town in 2005, founded by three entrepreneurs with a shared vision: make powerful digital tools accessible to every business, regardless of size or budget. What started as a mobile business application specialist quickly evolved — and today Kwikwap builds many websites every single day.

Our Values Drive Everything We Do
Our focus has always been that the system must be easy to use — all the while being very powerful under the hood. You never have to sacrifice capability for simplicity.
We believe in being fair to our resellers and clients alike. We are more interested in having happy users than making money — and that philosophy has guided every decision.
Every module in our system has been developed by us. This ensures complete compatibility, zero third-party risk, and no vulnerability to outside viruses or breakages.
Our modular system and generous nature enables us to offer very affordable, fixed-price websites. No hidden fees, no surprise bills — just straightforward value.
