Booking and ordering app for a Nigerian clinic or shop
What a Nigerian clinic, pharmacy or shop needs beyond WhatsApp DMs to take bookings and orders, and how to get one running in naira.
A Nigerian clinic or shop usually runs its bookings and orders through WhatsApp DMs and phone calls. That works until two patients are booked for the same slot, or a customer's order gets lost in a chat with forty other messages. A booking or ordering page fixes that without asking the owner to stop using WhatsApp — it just gives WhatsApp something solid to point to.
What a clinic needs
A clinic in Lagos, Abuja or Port Harcourt needs a calendar patients can book into themselves, a front desk view that shows today's queue, and a patient record that doesn't live in a notebook. When a patient books, the doctor sees it immediately — no more calling the clinic to confirm a slot is actually free.
What a shop or pharmacy needs
A shop selling out of a storefront or a market stall needs a simple page where a customer can see what's in stock and place an order, instead of typing out a list in a DM. The owner sees every order in one place, marks it ready or delivered, and never loses one in a chat thread.
Roles that matter
- The owner or front desk sees every booking or order for the day, and can call a patient or customer from the record.
- Staff (a second doctor, a shop assistant) see only what's assigned to them.
- The customer or patient books or orders themselves, and gets a WhatsApp confirmation with no back-and-forth needed.
Payments in naira
BooDoo prices in your own currency, so a Nigerian business sets up billing in naira, not dollars. Customers can be shown prices in naira too, whether they're paying for a consultation or a bag of rice.
How to get one
You describe the business — "a clinic with two doctors that takes bookings by WhatsApp" or "a pharmacy that wants online orders" — and BooDoo builds a real web app and an Android app around that description: sign-in for the owner and staff, a database for every booking or order, and hosting, live the same day. There's no code to write and nothing to install to start.
What it costs
BooDoo runs on a plan with a free way to start, and you're never charged for a mistake on our side — if a build breaks because of something we got wrong, it doesn't cost you credits. The Android app runs in your own Google Play account, and a custom domain for your clinic or shop is included free when you're ready to move off the boodoo.ai address.

FAQ
Do I need to stop using WhatsApp? No. The booking page is something you link from WhatsApp, so a patient or customer still reaches you the way they already do, just without the back-and-forth.
Is the Android app really mine? Yes — it publishes to your own Google Play account, not BooDoo's.
What if my clinic has only one doctor? The same app works for one doctor or five; you just describe your own setup and the roles adjust.
