Account and registration questions

How do I create a seller account?

Go to wasal.com and click Become a seller. Fill in the registration form with your email and a password. You will receive a confirmation email to activate your account.

Is registration free?

Yes, registering and creating your store are entirely free. Wasal only charges a commission when you make a sale.

To compare with your own online store or selling on social media, read Online store or marketplace: what to choose in Morocco?.

Can I have more than one store?

No, each seller can only have one store associated with their account. If you sell in several categories, you can group them within the same store.

I forgot my password, what should I do?

Click Forgot password on the login page. A reset link will be sent to your email address. The link is valid for 24 hours.

How do I delete my account?

Contact Wasal support via the chat bubble at the bottom right of the screen, or via Helpdesk Module ▸ New ticket, to request the deletion of your account. Your data will be deleted within 30 days in accordance with our privacy policy.

Questions about orders and delivery

How am I notified of a new order?

Notifications are set in My store → Settings, under the Notification tab. It has five checkboxes: delivery, invoice, order, product and store. They are all ticked by default.

To get an alert on your phone the moment an order comes in, install the Wasal seller app: it sends push notifications.

What is the deadline to confirm an order?

The deadline depends on the delivery mode chosen by the buyer:

  • W-Now: 40 minutes to accept the order, then 10 minutes to mark it "Ready to pick".
  • W-Comfort: 12 hours to accept the order, then 75 minutes to mark it "Ready to pick".

These deadlines only run during your store's opening hours. In W-Now, an order that is not accepted is cancelled automatically after 75 minutes. In W-Comfort, an order that is not "Ready to pick" 24 hours after its processing time is cancelled automatically (rule details). The commission is then withheld.

For details, see SLA, W-Now, W-Comfort and SLA penalty.

Who handles the delivery?

Delivery is handled by a logistics provider (3PL) that Wasal assigns to each order, for example POWER DELIVERY or FUTURAMA. You do not use your own carrier.

You prepare the parcel. At collection, the courier gives you a code (OTP): enter it on the order, in the seller app or on the web portal, to confirm the parcel handover.

How much does delivery cost?

Delivery fees appear in the detail of each order. The Net Collect Amount is the amount after deduction of the Wasal commission and applicable fees.

Find the details in Processing an order.

An order was delivered but the buyer says they did not receive it?

Open a ticket from the Helpdesk Module and give the order number. If the buyer opens a dispute, send your evidence without delay: the procedure is detailed in Handling a customer dispute.

Questions about payments and invoicing

When will I receive my first payment?

The first transfer takes place at the next bi-monthly cycle (the 15th or the 30th of the month) after your first sales have cleared the 7-day withdrawal period. If you deliver a first order on the 5th of the month, the 7-day period ends on the 12th: you can be paid as early as the transfer of the 15th.

How does Wasal calculate the commission?

The commission is applied to the sale price including tax, excluding delivery fees. The rate depends on the product sub-category: check yours in My store → Settings → Commission tab of the Seller Portal. Full details in Commissions and fees.

Why is my transfer lower than the amount announced?

Several reasons are possible:

  • Returns or refunds during the period are deducted
  • SLA penalties (shipping delays, cancellations) are withheld
  • Commissions and any service fees
  • Interbank delays — the amount shown is net, but your bank may take 1 to 3 business days

Check the details in the My invoices menu and use the Exporter Excel button to reconstruct it line by line.

Can I request an early payment?

No. Payments follow a fixed cycle (the 15th and the 30th of the month) to cover the buyer's withdrawal period and ensure the platform's financial stability. No exceptions.

Which payment methods does Wasal use?

All payouts are made by bank transfer to the RIB entered in your account. Wasal does not pay in cash, by cheque or via mobile wallet.

Do I have to issue an invoice to Wasal?

No — commission invoices are generated automatically by Wasal. You can download them from the My invoices menu. See Download your invoices.

For the end buyer, Wasal also generates the sales invoice if you are subject to VAT. Remember to check that your tax status is filled in.

Are my invoices compliant with Moroccan accounting rules?

Yes. Wasal invoices contain all the elements required by the DGI: tax identifiers, legal notices, itemised VAT, sequential numbering. They are kept for 5 years in your workspace and can be exported in bulk for your accountant.

Can I change my RIB?

Yes, but not from the portal: the RIB is entered only once during onboarding and there is no standalone edit page. To change it, contact your account manager at 05 22 09 43 43. See Understanding your payments for the details.

What should I do if I haven't received my transfer on the expected date?
  1. First check that the related invoice shows the Paid status in My invoices
  2. Check with your bank — interbank delays can reach 3 business days
  3. If it has been more than 5 business days after the announced date, contact support with your invoice number and an up-to-date RIB
Do I have to declare my Wasal income to the tax authorities?

Yes, like any business income. The Excel exports from My invoices and the commission invoices allow you to feed your tax return (IR or IS depending on your status). Consult your accountant for the tax regime suited to your turnover.
