Terms of Service StarterByte

Effective Date: [2/10/2025]

StarterByte was created based on the simple yet powerful notion that every enterprise, regardless of its size, is entitled to top-tier digital solutions. The struggles faced by local cafes in their fight against large chains helped ignite our drive towards positive change. Charged with the desire to cultivate equal business chances, we embarked on a project to equip these smaller businesses with the necessary tools for their growth and prosperity. Today, it brings us immense satisfaction to assist companies nationwide in enhancing their customer interaction while building a loyal customer community. Collectively, we are pushing the boundaries for small-scale ventures in today's digital era.
