How Setsebi Africa Earns
Joining, posting, following and messaging are free. Setsebi Africa earns when value changes hands, and when companies choose to be seen.
Five Ways the Platform Earns
Transaction fees
A fee is kept on every session, training, course place and event ticket when the money is released from escrow.
Featured listings
Experts pay a monthly fee to be featured at the top of the expert directory or across every Business Network, and organisers pay to feature their events.
Placements and sponsorship
Companies sponsor a Business Network, The Brief newsletter or a mentorship programme, and pay for featured jobs, internships, events, courses and books.
Advertising
Every page carries advertising space, placed by relevance to what the member is reading.
Employer accounts
Employers receive their first staff seats free and buy further seats in packs as their teams grow.
Who Stands Behind It
Setsebi Africa is owned by Cabanga Africa Group, publishers of the regional business magazines in Africa, and is built and run by the group's own platform team. Its twelve Business Networks mirror the twelve magazine editions, so the readers who already turn to those titles for business news find their peers, their experts and their next opportunity in the same place.
Built to Start Lean and Grow
The platform installs on a phone or desktop like an app, works in the member's own currency, runs its own video servers for private session rooms and supports sign-in with Google. It is built to run on standard web hosting today and to move to dedicated servers as membership grows.
