Mauritius’s Commerce Ministry announced the launch of Ki Pri on 6 November 2026, a free app that lets shoppers check regulated and subsidised prices for certain products in stores.

Users scan a product barcode with their phones to look up the price recorded in the government’s Price Fixing and Information System. The tool is designed to help consumers spot differences between the authorised price, the shelf label and the amount charged at checkout.

Ki Pri is available for Android devices through Google Play. An iOS version for Apple devices is expected later. The ministry also plans an information campaign on the app and product price-labelling requirements.
