About

jam means peace. And your next beauty appointment.

In Fulfulde, “jam” means peace, health, well-being: it's the heart of the greeting “jam tan”. We're building the simplest way to book a beauty and wellness pro in Central Africa.

Why jam exists

Finding a good braider or an available barber today means WhatsApp screenshots, unanswered calls and cash payments. For pros, forgotten appointments are costly.

jam replaces all that with a clear flow: you see services and prices in FCFA, pick a free slot and pay with mobile money. The pro gets an up-to-date calendar and bookings paid in advance.

Who it's for

  • Clients who want to book without haggling on the phone.
  • Hairdressers, braiders, barbers, beauticians, massage therapists and coaches who want to run their business like a real company.

We're starting in Cameroon and opening the platform to pros in the CEMAC region, Benin, Côte d'Ivoire and Togo.

Our principles

  • Mobile-first: jam is designed for Android smartphones and unstable connections.
  • Native mobile money: MTN MoMo and Orange Money, no bank card needed.
  • Transparency: the prices shown are the ones set by the pros.
  • Respect for your data: we don't sell your data. See our privacy policy.
