BetaStore, Beta Store

BetaStore (legal entity SimpleMarket Inc., trading as BetaStore.co) is a B2B retail marketplace founded in 2020 by Steve Dakayi-Kamga and Leo-Armel Tchoudjang that serves informal neighborhood retailers in West and Central Africa, operating across Nigeria, Senegal and Ivory Coast from offices in Lagos and a Wilmington, Delaware registration. The platform lets small shopkeepers restock fast-moving consumer goods directly from manufacturers and distributors at wholesale prices, ordering through SMS, chat, WhatsApp and a mobile app, with logistics partners delivering to the store within 24 hours, and it layers embedded working-capital financing on top of observed retailer sales. BetaStore raised a 2.5 million dollar pre-Series A in May 2022 led by 500 Global with VestedWorld and Loyal VC. As of the July 2026 enrichment pass BetaStore publishes no public API, developer portal, documentation, SDK or machine-readable artifact of any kind, and its betastore.co domain serves no content -- both the apex and www hosts answer every path with a blanket Cloudflare 301 to unrelated third-party domains, and no api/app/docs subdomain resolves.

human only

Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles BetaStore, Beta Store the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — BetaStore, Beta Store scores 6.8/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.
