Installing MyPayAid

From download to your first sale in about 15 minutes. No coding — the built-in setup wizard does the heavy lifting.

Before you start

You need standard cPanel web hosting with PHP 8+ and MySQL, plus the download link and license key we emailed you. Most Ghanaian hosting plans qualify.

1

1 · Create a database

In cPanel → MySQL® Databases: create a database, create a user, and add the user to the database with All Privileges. Note the database name, username, and password.

2

2 · Upload the files

In cPanel → File Manager, go to your domain folder (usually public_html), upload the MyPayAid zip, and Extract it there.

3

3 · Run the setup wizard

Open your website in a browser. MyPayAid automatically shows the Setup Wizard. It checks your server, then asks for the database details from step 1.

4

4 · Enter your business details

Type your business name and currency, then create your admin login (your name, email, password). MyPayAid builds all the tables and your account.

5

5 · Activate your license

Sign in, open VIP / Subscription, and paste the license key we emailed you. That unlocks your plan.

6

6 · Start selling

Add a few products (or use Smart Import on VIP), then open Point of Sale and ring up your first sale. 🎉
