All prices are in rand. Where a vendor lists in dollars, pounds or euros we convert at R16.53 per US dollar, R21.86 per pound and R18.53 per euro (European Central Bank reference rates, via Frankfurter, 9 OCT 2026).

Prices are the vendor's own published list price, read on the date shown. Sage quotes cloud products including VAT and Pastel products excluding it, so the basis is not cosmetic. Price on request means the vendor gives its price after you contact it. Free means the starting price is zero.
