Questions, answered.

Everything you might want to know, the questions clients ask most. If yours isn't here, a short note is enough; we reply personally.

What makes Khay different from other web agencies?
Anyone can make a website. We start with your brand's story: where it started, who it is for and where it is going, and build around it. For a few brands each year, we tell it as a Khay Original: an immersive experience people step into, made on a blueprint only we hold. Our Managing Creative Director leads each engagement himself.
What is a Khay Original?
Our immersive experiences: a brand's story, built as a place people step into, with scenes, motion and 3D, made for one brand on a blueprint only we hold. We accept a few each year, by application, and price each one in a written proposal. Your brand, story, content, data and domain stay yours; the blueprint stays with us.
Are your demos Khay Originals?
No. Details, Aqua Springs and KYÔ are demos we built on our own initiative, for Mauritian brands we admire, to show what an Original can be. They are not client work.
What is the difference between pre-made offers and tailored solutions?
Pre-made offers are standardised packs for branding and website development with fixed deliverables and transparent, published pricing, designed for quick delivery. Tailored solutions are for needs that go beyond a pack, require unique functionality, or a modified version of a pack, we provide a customised quote, and these projects may involve a longer timeline.
Can I modify a pre-made offer or add features later?
Pre-made offers come with fixed terms and deliverables and can't be modified directly, if you need a different scope, ask us for a tailored quote. Once a pack project is delivered, a Website Care plan covers future additions, modifications and enhancements.
What payment options do you offer?
Pay in full before the project starts, or a 50/50 split (50% before start, 50% before final delivery). For projects above MUR 30,000 you can also choose staged payments of 50% / 30% / 20%, or an extended payment plan over up to 5 months, a small Sharia-compliant facility fee applies and is stated in the agreement. Khay Originals are paid as set out in your written proposal.
Are there any hidden fees?
Absolutely not. All fees, including any facility fees on extended plans, are clearly outlined in our agreement. There are no hidden clauses or small print.
How long does a typical project take?
Pre-made offers: branding projects from 2 days; website projects from 24 hours. Tailored solutions: from 5 working days, extending to several months depending on complexity and the modifications you request. A Khay Original takes as long as its story needs, and its timeline is agreed in writing before work begins.
How involved will I need to be?
Your involvement is crucial. For pre-made offers you select and approve base templates or share clear inspiration, and we propose solutions. For tailored solutions, approvals are needed at each stage so the result matches your vision. We guide you throughout.
Who will be my point of contact?
Our Managing Creative Director. Every engagement is led by him, from first brief to handover, for all communication and updates.
Do I need to provide the content?
We prefer clients provide their own text. Within pre-made offers we work with your text and supply free stock images. For tailored solutions, professional copywriting and content creation are optional add-ons.
Is hosting included, and can I use my own?
Yes, the first year of hosting is included with every pre-made offer. You can also use your own hosting provider; we would need administrative access to link your website. For a Khay Original, hosting is set out in your written proposal.
Do you handle domain registration?
Yes. We create a client account in your name with our provider for transparency and ease of management. You can also register your domain yourself and give us access to link it.
What happens after delivery, do I get full access?
You receive a handover of access to your website's administrative area so you can manage content and make basic updates, plus training delivered virtually or in person. Domain and hosting controls may be managed through our accounts for service consistency. For a Khay Original, what you can edit yourself, and how, is set out in your written proposal.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance and support?
Yes, Website Care plans cover maintenance, security updates, technical support and future modifications and additions after launch. See the pricing page for plans.
Will I own the intellectual property?
For packs, websites and brand work, yes. On full payment and final delivery you receive vector files (AI, EPS, PDF) and common image formats (PNG, JPG) for your logo and brand elements, and for custom software and websites, IP rights are transferred to you as set out in the service agreement. Khay Originals are the one exception: your brand, story, content, data and domain are yours, while the blueprint every Original is built on, meaning our code, tools and method, stays with us. How you may use your Original is set out in your written proposal.
Is the website scalable for future growth?
Yes. All websites are designed with scalability in mind, new features, functionality and capacity can be added through a Website Care plan or a tailored solution as your business evolves.
Can you integrate the website with a CRM?
Yes. SmartOps by Khay, our platform, dedicated to the digital transformation of SMEs, integrates directly with the websites we build to manage leads, customer relationships, sales pipelines and marketing. We can also integrate third-party CRMs if you prefer.
Can you help us comply with the Data Protection Act 2017?
Yes. Our governance work covers the IT and data-protection groundwork, and Priva, our own compliance workspace built for Mauritius, keeps your registers, breach deadlines, data subject requests and policies in one place. We hold ourselves to the same standard: Khay Digital is registered with the Data Protection Office as both a data controller and a data processor. Priva is a compliance tool, not legal advice: under the DPA 2017 the controller remains responsible for compliance.
Can I add e-commerce or a booking system later?
Yes. E-commerce, online booking, advanced lead-generation tools and other complex features can be built onto your existing website through a Website Care plan or as a tailored solution.
Where are you based?
We're a Mauritian digital agency, with clients in Mauritius, Réunion, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada and Australia. We are part of Khay Group, which operates between Mauritius and the United Kingdom.
