It takes about three minutes to create your account and pharmacy. Then follow the first steps in order and you are ready to sell.
1) Create your account
- Open the Create account page.
- Type your name, your email and your mobile number. Your mobile number is your login, so type it correctly (for example
01012345678). - A verification code arrives on WhatsApp. If WhatsApp fails, it is sent as a text message, and if the phone cannot be reached at all it is sent to your email. When the code comes by email, that email is the one the account keeps.
- Type the code. It is valid for 5 minutes and you have 5 attempts. You can ask for a new code after a minute, up to 5 times an hour.
- Choose a strong password: at least 6 characters with upper and lower case letters, a number and a symbol, and not a well-known leaked password.
Why a code? So the system knows the number is yours and nobody can open an account with your number.
2) Create your pharmacy
After signing up, type the pharmacy name. Dawak creates for you:
- A database of your own that nobody else can see.
- A main branch called Main branch.
- The ready-made roles: owner, manager, pharmacist, cashier.
- You as the owner, with every permission.

The free plan and the trial
You start on the Free plan (one branch, two people and 200 products). You can try the paid plans for 7 days from the subscription page. Details in Plans and subscription.
Tip: the fastest way to bring in your current stock is photographing the shelves or importing an Excel file, instead of typing every product by hand.
