How to Use Golly's Shop For Me (Concierge) Service

What Is the Shop For Me Service?

Shop For Me is Golly Express's concierge shopping service. You tell us what you want, we buy it on your behalf from international stores, and we handle the shipping all the way to you in Ghana. No foreign card, no stress.

Step 1: Create Your Golly Account

Before you can start shopping, you'll need a Golly Express account.

Visit our website and sign up with your email address, or
Download the Golly Express app and register directly on your phone.

Once your account is set up, you're ready to go.

Step 2: Browse or Search for Products

Golly is fully integrated with popular stores including Amazon, eBay, and all Shopify stores — with more stores being added regularly.

You have a few ways to find what you need:

Browse by store — Tap on any supported store to explore curated listings or search for items within that store.
Global search — Use the search bar on the home screen to search across all integrated stores at once and get results in one place.
Paste a link — Already found the product you want? Use the paste link feature to drop in a direct product URL from any supported store. Golly will automatically resolve and display the item for you.

Step 3: Add Items to Your Cart

Once you find what you're looking for:

Tap Add to Cart to save the item.
Not ready to order yet? You can save items for later directly in your cart and come back to them anytime.
When you're ready, proceed to select a delivery option:
- Home Delivery — We bring it straight to your address in Ghana.
- Golly Warehouse Pickup — Pick up your package from our warehouse at your convenience.

Step 4: Review Your Order and Check Out

Before you pay, take a moment to review your cart and confirm your delivery details.

A note on shipping costs: Because we use a weight-based pricing system for general items and fixed pricing system for selected electronics, the international shipping cost shown at checkout is only an estimate. We can only confirm the exact shipping fee after your items arrive at our warehouse and are physically weighed. You will be invoiced for the actual shipping cost separately at that point.

At checkout, you pay only for the cost of acquiring your items. That's it for now.

Step 5: We Handle the Rest

Once your payment is confirmed, here's what happens behind the scenes:

Your order is created and our team gets to work purchasing your items from the relevant store or platform.
Shipments are created as sellers dispatch your items — we track each one using the shipping/tracking numbers provided.
Your items arrive at our warehouse, where our team inspects them and takes confirmation photos to share with you.
From there, your package is shipped to Ghana, and you'll receive detailed updates every step of the way — from our warehouse all the way to your doorstep.
