First release — FixGrid launches as a three-sided marketplace. Power back, without the wahala.
- Honest pricing. A meter code is free from your electricity company — you only pay a clear service fee for the handling, just like a POS agent. A new prepaid meter shows its official price plus a separate service fee, itemised on the payment screen so nothing is hidden.
- Request a meter, not just a code. Pick "Get a meter", enter the address and occupant, and an operator sources it, handles the paperwork, and arranges installation — tracked stage by stage.
- One simple home. Your home screen is now greeting + wallet + the request form in one place, with a tidy bottom menu: Home, Requests, Wallet, Account.
- Six electric companies and four code types out of the box; clearer photo prompts; a cleaner requests list and account page; and a mobile-native back office for the operator/admin.
- Operators — a dedicated fulfilment role. The admin adds an operator with a phone + PIN and a badge number, and assigns the electric companies (discos) they're authorised for. Operators sign in to their own app and only see paid requests for their discos, tap a job, and paste the code (or mark a meter installed).
- Operator wallets + bank withdrawals — operators earn the base fee into a wallet on each completed job and withdraw to their bank in one tap via Paystack transfer (pick your bank by name — no codes). Admins see a payout queue and can settle/reject.
- New prepaid-meter requests — alongside codes, electricians can request a brand-new prepaid meter (single-phase / three-phase / smart) with the install address and occupant details. Same pay → handle → deliver flow.
- Your prices + a platform markup — set the operator's base price per disco × type (code matrix and meter matrix), then add a markup (a percentage or flat amount). The electrician pays base + markup; the operator earns the base; the platform keeps the markup.
- Live progress for customers — a beautiful, shareable tracking page. The electrician sends the link to their customer, who follows the request through clear stages (received → verifying → ready → confirmed) and sees the code the moment it's issued — no need to keep calling. Payment-pending is shown prominently so the customer knows when they're holding things up, and an order only reaches operators once it's paid.
- Two share buttons on a ready code: share the code itself to WhatsApp (meter number + code + plain instructions + tracking link), or share just the status link.
- Electrician portal — register and sign in with just a phone number and a 4-digit PIN on a big numeric keypad. No email, no password.
- Get a meter code in a few taps — one giant button, a big meter-number box, and visual pickers for the electric company and the kind of code. Add a photo of the meter if you like.
- Wallet — top up once with your card, then pay for codes in one tap. Or pay per request by card. Refunds always go back to your wallet.
- The code, made obvious — when your code is ready you get an alert, then a big spaced-out code with one-tap Copy and Share to WhatsApp, plus a plain line to read to your customer.
- "Did it work?" — confirm with one tap, or tell us it didn't and we'll re-send or refund.
- Back office — a live queue of paid requests, a one-field paste-the-code handler, click-to-call the electrician, and full activity history on every request.
- Your prices, your way — set a fee per electric company and per code type in a simple matrix, with sensible fallbacks down to a single global default.
- Electrician management — add or deactivate electricians, reset PINs, and adjust wallets by hand.
- Reports & ledger — fees collected, top-ups, refunds, and fees by disco, with a full money ledger.
- Paystack for card payments and wallet top-ups; ntfy push alerts for new requests, delivered codes, and disputes.
