Kompliant is a South African sole proprietorship carried on by <Owner's full name>, trading as Kompliant, operating from <physical and postal address>, and can be contacted via our contact form. The business is that of a natural person; the owner is personally liable for the obligations of the business. All prices are quoted in South African Rand (ZAR).
Kompliant is not the Compensation Fund, SARS, CIPC, the Information Regulator, or any other government department or agency, and is not affiliated with any of them. Kompliant is a private software and support business.
Kompliant is a subscription service that helps businesses track and prepare for their legal obligations, including:
Kompliant gives guidance and calculators. The information, figures, checklists and generated documents are indicative only and do not constitute legal, tax, accounting or financial advice. The final business user remains responsible for checking figures with the relevant authority or a registered professional (including a registered tax practitioner where required by section 240 of the Tax Administration Act) and for submitting their own returns. Kompliant's done-for-you COIDA service connects to the official government portals; before relying on generated documents, verify them against the official requirements in force at the time.
Our fees are for our services only. Government bodies — including the Compensation Fund (COIDA registration, ROE Online filing and the Letter of Good Standing) and CIPC — charge their own fees (or none) directly, and those are never included in, nor replaced by, Kompliant's fees.
Plans are priced as shown on our pricing page in South African Rand (ZAR). You may choose to pay monthly in advance or yearly in advance (10 months' equivalent for 12 months' service). Payment is made by your selected payment method (card), processed by a PCI-DSS-compliant payment provider.
Done-for-you services — payment in full before work starts. For one-off services (ROE filing, LOGS, registration, audits and similar), we issue a written, itemised quote for approval. No work begins until the quoted amount is received in full and has cleared in our account (EFT cleared funds or bank-confirmed card payment). We will not commence, file or submit anything on your behalf before payment is received and cleared, and we will not charge you after the fact without a prior approved quote.
Government and regulator fees (CIPC, Compensation Fund, and similar) are not included in our flat rates and are paid by you to the authorities directly, unless the approved quote expressly says otherwise. If we ever pay such a fee on your behalf, we pass it through at cost with a receipt and never mark it up. Our flat rate is exclusively our professional fee for the preparation, correctness and assurance work.
Advertised prices are starting prices, and the exact price always depends on your record count. The monthly opt-out registry cleansing service is advertised "from R499/month". That R499 is our professional fee for cleansing a database of up to 2,000 contact records in one month. If your database exceeds 2,000 records, an additional professional fee of R0.15 per extra record applies, so for example 5,000 records are billed at R499 + 3,000 × R0.15 = R949 for the professional work, and 8,000 records at R499 + 6,000 × R0.15 = R1,399.
The NCC Opt-Out Registry cleansing fee of R0.12 per record is a regulator fee charged at cost and passed through with a receipt; it is calculated on your total record count and never marked up (for 5,000 records that is R600, payable to/at cost of the National Consumer Commission).
In every case you are shown the exact itemised total on a written quote before you approve it, and in accordance with clause 5 above no work starts until that quoted amount has been paid in full and cleared. No advertised or displayed price, including the "from R499" figure, is a flat commitment to you: your binding price is always the approved quote, calculated from the record count you supplied.
Where we register a new company with CIPC for you, you appoint us, on submission of the intake form and acceptance of your approved quote, to act as your agent for the limited purpose of incorporating the company: reserving the name(s), filing the incorporation and related CIPC forms. The registration is a once-off professional fee (Standard R599, Full House R999, or as shown on your approved quote) plus CIPC's government fee (currently R175 for registration with a name; extra names R50 each) which we pass through at cost. You never pay us a yearly fee to stay registered — CIPC's annual return (R100–R3,000, set by your turnover) is a separate, yearly obligation paid to CIPC at cost, and we only handle it if you separately request that service.
To act for you we will ask for a brief written authority (instruction) and a certified copy of each director's ID not older than 3 months, as CIPC requires. We use the details you give us to prepare the filings; you are responsible for their accuracy. We do not provide company-law or tax advice. VAT registration and returns are not handled by us: we give you a step-by-step guide and you submit directly to SARS yourself, or use a registered tax practitioner (section 240 of the Tax Administration Act). A B-BBEE EME affidavit we prepare is for your signature — a commissioner of Oaths must witness it (their small fee, if any, is separate), and it is valid for 12 months.
No guarantee of time. We cannot and do not guarantee a registration deadline. CIPC alone decides the turnaround and it varies: with complete, correct documents and an available name, most (Pty) Ltd registrations complete in about 1–5 working days, but an issue (a rejected name, uncertified or unclear ID copies, incomplete details, ID verification, or CIPC backlogs or outages) can extend this to 7–14 working days or longer, and each correction restarts the clock. The optional same-day filing (an additional CIPC fee) only prioritises CIPC's own processing and does not override CIPC's decision. If CIPC rejects or delays a filing for any reason, our professional fee remains payable for the work we have done (refunds apply per our Refund Policy); any government fee already paid to CIPC is non-refundable as described in that policy.
(a) Online purchases you initiate — ECTA 7-day cooling-off (s44 ECTA 25 of 2002). If you sign up online without us contacting you first, you may cancel this agreement within 7 days of signing up without reason or penalty. We will refund any amounts paid within 30 days.
(b) Purchases after direct marketing — CPA 5-business-day cooling-off (s16 CPA 68 of 2008). If you enter into this agreement because we approached you (e.g. by phone, WhatsApp or email) as part of direct marketing, you may cancel within 5 business days of signing up, without reason or penalty. We will refund within 15 business days.
The service is provided "as is" on an "as available" basis. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Kompliant and its staff are not liable for indirect or consequential losses (including loss of profits, revenue, goodwill or data), or for any penalties, interest, or fines imposed on you by a regulator. Nothing in these terms excludes liability we may not lawfully exclude (such as liability for gross negligence or death or injury caused by our negligence).
We process your personal information in line with the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (POPIA). Read our Privacy Policy and PAIA Manual. Where we processes employee or customer personal information on your behalf, a data-processing (operator) agreement in our Terms applies and we follow your lawful instructions only.
We take reasonable measures to protect our service and your data (HTTPS, rate limiting, access controls, and monitoring for suspicious activity). To help stop fraud and hacking:
We may update these terms from time to time (e.g. for legal changes — including the POPIA 2025 amendments and the increased VAT threshold). We will notify you by email and post a new "last updated" date. Continued use after 14 days means you accept the change. You may terminate by email or dashboard; termination takes effect for the next billing period.
These terms, together with the Privacy Policy, the PAIA Manual and the Disclaimer, form the whole agreement. If any term is unenforceable, the rest remains in force. We may assign this agreement with notice to you so long as your rights are not reduced.
