MLM software in Nepal

Nepal is a smaller and more cautious direct selling market. Authorities have historically been restrictive towards network marketing after several controversies, so the companies that operate today tend to be modest in scale, product-focused and careful about how they present earnings. Activity is concentrated in the Kathmandu Valley, Pokhara and the Terai cities, and remittances from family members working abroad shape how many households spend and save.

Overview

Direct selling software for Nepal

MLM.ERP supports Nepali operations with NPR pricing, a Devanagari Nepali language pack and VAT and PAN fields on invoices and profiles. eSewa and Khalti can be connected for payments, and dates can be shown in the Bikram Sambat calendar. Nepal is just fifteen minutes ahead of India, so our support team keeps effectively the same hours as yours for online setup, training and ongoing help.

How MLM.ERP adapts

  • Nepali language pack in Devanagari script, with English and Hindi as alternatives
  • Optional Bikram Sambat (B.S.) date display alongside Gregorian dates
  • NPR pricing with VAT fields and PAN capture for the company and distributors
  • Province, district and municipality address formats, with payouts on Nepal Time
Regulation

Regulatory landscape in Nepal

Not legal advice

This is a general overview as of October 2026. Laws change, so confirm your plan and licensing with qualified local counsel before launch.

  • Our understanding is that direct selling is governed by the Direct Sales (Management and Regulation) Act, 2074 (2017), which generally requires permission or registration before operating; confirm current procedures with the authorities.
  • Nepal has historically taken a restrictive line on network marketing and pyramid-style schemes, and consumer protection laws are actively enforced.
  • Nepal Rastra Bank has treated cryptocurrency transactions as illegal, so crypto payouts and token plans should not be used.
  • Given how sensitive this market is, have Nepali legal counsel review your licence position, plan and marketing before launch.

FAQ

MLM software in Nepal: FAQ

Is MLM allowed in Nepal?

Nepal has historically been restrictive, and our understanding is that direct selling now requires permission under the Direct Sales (Management and Regulation) Act, 2074. Requirements and enforcement can change, so check your position with a Nepali lawyer before investing in software or recruiting members.

Can members pay with eSewa or Khalti?

Yes, through integration. eSewa and Khalti are connected via their merchant APIs during implementation, once your accounts are approved. Members can then pay for orders from their wallets, and admins can reconcile payments automatically instead of checking screenshots of transfers.

Can the software show Bikram Sambat dates?

Yes. Dates on panels, invoices and reports can be shown in Bikram Sambat, Gregorian or both. Commission calculations run on the same underlying dates, so the choice of display never changes how bonuses or payout cycles are calculated.

Can I offer a crypto plan in Nepal?

No, we would not recommend it. Nepal Rastra Bank has treated cryptocurrency transactions as illegal, so Nepali clients use product-based repurchase, stairstep or generation plans with payouts in NPR. MLM.ERP lets you switch off every crypto feature for a Nepali deployment.
