MyOwnPA WhatsApp conversations shown on three phones: grocery budget, grocery list, and recipes

Real conversations. Real families. Just WhatsApp.

WHAT MYOWNPA DOES TODAY

Everything your household needs, on WhatsApp.

💰

Grocery Budget

Snap your till slip and MyOwnPA updates what's left automatically.

🛒

Grocery List

One shared list the whole family can add to — by text or voice note.

🍲

Recipes

Photograph any recipe to save it, then check it against your list.

PRICING

Starting at R39/month.

Pick the plan that matches how you shop, log, and cook each month.

Lite Shopper

R39/month

Keeps things simple. If your list rarely tops 30 items a month, you'd rather mumble your expenses into a voice note than go hunting for a till slip, and 5 saved recipes covers your weekly rotation — this one's built for you.

Frequent Shopper

R99/month

For the serious shopper — bigger family, near-daily trips, a list with real ambition. Snap every till slip without a second thought, and keep up to 30 recipes on hand for whenever inspiration (or hunger) strikes.

Your usage across every feature — shopping list, budget, recipes, and beyond — is combined into one simple monthly total for your plan. However you use it is up to you; it's the total that counts, not any single feature.
