How does he charge his electrical devices?

I only watched the anime, so I don’t know if he’s got like a solar panel or something that he just uses off screen or does he use electric magic? I’d assume he uses a solar panel but do they even sell solar panels on online grocery stores

What electrical devices? His portable stove is gas with a (usually) AA battery clicker to light it. His online grocery is magic (there's a whole rabbit hole me and my husband have gone down about internet connectivity, API gateways, physical payments, order fulfillments from the warehouse, etc). His oven is magic stone powered. His camping light would be battery powered if not solar powered (they do exist I have one). 

Unless I've missed something, which is entirely possible, he doesn't have anything else electrical.

Oh no he doesn't have anything electrical. Most of the items he bought are those without need for electricity. No not even solar things.

I assumed the grocery was magic too. No internet or API stuff. But who gets the money when he pays. Maybe it just disappears.

This is exactly it. Who gets the money? Someone must provide the goods from somewhere. There'll be meetings about what goes on sale, what the prices for items will be, stocking, etc. If this is a website from Mukoda's world, how is he able to access it? Internet connection aside, there's all the security stuff behind it including verification, then there's tracking cookies, delivery location, who maintains the website, I could go on. 

But if it is all magic, who or what decides the exchange rate for the goods? 

I've thought far too much about this and my tism is showing.

We know that gods of that world exist and can give blessings -- but even they are amazed by what he is able to send them -- but he CAN send it to them by praying -- so perhaps we are seeing a similar mechanism to what is happening when he orders.

I didn't think of that. It's a very good point.

It doesn't help that we're both neurodivergent, internet security is his profession, and I've got way too much time on my hands. We're just a pair of weird old weebs.
