Based on recent customer reviews, iKhokha delivers a polarised experience. Frontline support agents earn glowing praise for patience, product knowledge and same-day resolutions, with many customers naming individuals like Rahisa, Rashi, Keshnee and Sabelo as standout helpers. However, a vocal minority describe severe breakdowns around payouts, refunds, onboarding documentation and communication, where queries drag on for weeks or months with limited accountability.
iKhokha's biggest strength, according to Hellopeter's AI analysis, is Customer Service & Professional Guidance. Customer Service & Professional Guidance (4.2). Customers consistently name agents such as Rahisa, Rashi Hanook, Keshnee, Adelio, Sabelo and Chris Morgan as patient, knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile, often resolving setup, activation and integration queries within minutes.

Beginning of the year I purchased a card machine for my business which was delivered without any issues. However, additional information like a website link, pamphlet, business card, Facebook page was requested before the machine could be activated. I notified Shazia that my business was fairly new and I did not have any of those at the time, because I purchased the machine soon after registration so I hadn't setup anything at that time. I then requested we cancel the purchase and I'll just reapply once I have everything is set up, and that was no issue. I had to return the machine which was collected but time for refund I'm talking alone on the emails. Initially she requested proof of account which I submitted, but the refund hasn't been processed until now and I have been following up but nobody is responding to my emails, I even wrote on Facebook still no response from you guys. I find this very annoying and unprofessional from you guys. Could someone process my refund and just give me back my money, ndiyanicela please.

It is the second week and I still have not received my payout from ikhokha. I am a full time employee who offers mobile beauty treatments to my clients informally as a side hustle and therefore I do not take transactions on a daily basis and according to ikhokha irregular transactions= *****. It has been 2 weeks and they have not paid out my money because I am required to send them a picture of my practise meanwhile I made it known to them that my services are mobile even upon signing up with them and they where happy to allow me to use they card machine. Their service is horrible I am referred from one agent to another with back and forth emails that yield no resolution. Do not even consider using them. They are absolutely shocking!

Terrible customer service experience trying to get an advance qualification. Meet all the requirements, contacted all the numbers provided they all just keep telling you the same thing or nothing at all .
