The Challenge

Why Manual Reconciliation Slows You Down

Manually matching M-Pesa statement spreadsheets against member passbooks at the end of the month leads to delays. Staff must sort through hundreds of payments, resulting in allocation errors, mismatch warnings, and delays. When member balances are only updated at month-end, trust decreases and risk increases.

Overview

Robust Mobile Banking for Modern Cooperatives

Our M-Pesa Sacco integration connects your Safaricom gateway directly to cooperative ledgers. Members can initiate STK Push prompts to trigger direct payments from their phones in seconds.

Once transaction callbacks are received, SaccoWorks splits the payments according to predefined rules, updates member balances, and updates general accounts automatically.

Withdrawals and loan disbursements utilize Safaricom B2C channels, sending cash to member lines immediately. Real-time updates keep cooperative records compliant, secure, and ready for audits.
