Questions about Madhu

Is the Madhu theme free?

Madhu comes with the Growth (₹999 a month) and Pro plans, including GST; there is no separate theme fee. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial, without a card.

Can I use Madhu for my honey shop and apiary?

Yes. Madhu was designed for a honey shop and apiary (food & groceries). Your own name, logo, photos, products and prices replace the demo's, and the menu (Raw honey, Honeycomb, Gifts, Visit the hives…) can be renamed.

How do customers order or pay in Madhu?

Bag and checkout with UPI, cards and cash on delivery. Online payments go through your own Razorpay account (UPI, credit and debit cards, EMI, net banking), cash on delivery can be turned on, and a GST invoice is made for every order.

Can I change the colours and fonts of Madhu?

Yes. Madhu uses Literata for headings and Hanken Grotesk for text; on the Pro plan you can set your own brand colour, fonts and button shape on top of it, and preview the result with your own products before publishing.

Does Madhu work on phones?

Yes. It is built for phones first, with a bottom tab bar, a swipeable gallery and a checkout sized for thumbs, and it loads fast: no page builders, no plugins.

Can I switch from Madhu to another theme later?

Yes, any time from your dashboard. Your products, orders, pages and customers stay as they are; only the design changes.
