“As a South African business we battled to find a solution for accepting card payments that integrates with our Kajabi website — and we lost a lot of sales because of it. CheckoutJoy solved this problem, and now 60% of our sales go through PayFast.”
Sound familiar?
South African creators hit the same wall on Kajabi.
Kajabi only natively supports Stripe and PayPal. For South African businesses, that leaves three bad options:
Take PayPal only
Most South African buyers don’t have PayPal. The few who do face high forex fees, and you wait weeks to get your money home.
Set up Stripe Atlas
A US company, US tax filings, Wise transfers, accounting overhead — for a Kajabi checkout. Hundreds of dollars and ongoing complexity you didn’t sign up for.
Send manual payment links
PayFast links pasted into emails. No automatic Kajabi access. No subscriptions. No coupons, bumps, or affiliates. Customer support eats your week.

“CheckoutJoy has been absolutely brilliant in helping me set up to charge my South African customers in Rands, from platforms that only offer Dollars or Euros. Meiring has offered excellent personal service, and loads of great technical advice. He helped me set up my products and memberships in five minutes!”
Linda Henningsforgingahead.co.za“CheckoutJoy saved the day. I was a very stressed out, technically challenged business owner trying to figure out how to make payment possible in my currency ZAR and with a local bank in South Africa. The solution was CheckoutJoy. Meiring was helpful, calm and reassuring. He made the process feel seamless.”
Kearin-Ashley HewardThe Sweetest Slumber“We have struggled with various payment systems in the past, but CheckoutJoy has been a game-changer for our online courses. The platform works seamlessly and has made the entire process so much easier for us and our customers. It’s that kind of partnership that builds real trust, especially for smaller businesses.”
Hein DornbrackThe Winkmovement“As a South African business wanting to charge customers in Rands or use local payment gateways, CheckoutJoy was a very welcome product. It integrates with PayFast and Paystack, the checkout pages look amazing, and everything just works. Our customers get access to what they purchased without a hitch — and we can charge in Rands, even recurring membership fees.”

FAQ
Questions South African creators ask before signing up.
- Do I need to register a US company or use Stripe Atlas?
- No. CheckoutJoy connects your existing South African PayFast or Paystack account directly to Kajabi. You stay a South African business and get paid in Rands to your local bank.
- When do I get paid — and in what currency?
- Your customers are charged in ZAR. PayFast and Paystack settle directly to your South African bank account, typically in 1–2 business days. No Wise transfers, no waiting weeks.
- Do recurring subscriptions and memberships work?
- Yes. PayFast and Paystack recurring billing both work end-to-end. Customers’ Kajabi access is automatically managed — they get access on payment and lose it when they cancel.
- Can I still charge international customers in USD?
- Yes. Set prices in USD or EUR and CheckoutJoy converts at checkout using live exchange rates, or run a separate currency on the same product.
- Are tax-compliant invoices included?
- Yes. VAT-compliant invoices are generated automatically and emailed to your customer on every successful sale.
- How long does setup take?
- Under 10 minutes. Sign up, connect PayFast or Paystack, import your Kajabi offers, and paste a snippet on your Kajabi page.
- Are there transaction fees?
- No transaction fees from CheckoutJoy on the Kajabi integration — just a flat monthly subscription. You only pay the standard PayFast or Paystack processing fees on your sales.
- What if I use a payment gateway other than PayFast or Paystack?
- We support 15+ processors globally. If your gateway isn’t listed, get in touch — chances are it’s on the way.
