Group saving without the notebook and the disputes
Cash boxes get lost, treasurers make mistakes, and members argue over who paid. OurPesa keeps every contribution and payout on a shared, secure ledger everyone can see.
Every saving model supported
Built for how Ugandans actually save — rotating merry-go-rounds, VSLA cycles, SACCO accounts, and Eqube-style groups all run inside one app.
Transparent group ledgers
Contributions and payouts are recorded automatically and visible to every member, so there is no dispute over who paid and whose turn it is.
Mobile money & bank funding
Members top up and withdraw using MTN MoMo, Airtel Money, Visa/Mastercard, or direct bank transfer with Equity and Centenary Bank.
Blockchain-secured records
Group balances and transaction history are secured so records cannot be quietly altered — giving members confidence their money is accounted for.
Save, spend & invest
Beyond saving, members can manage and grow their money in one place rather than juggling cash, a bank app, and a treasurer's book.
No monthly commission
OurPesa does not skim a monthly commission off your savings, so more of every contribution stays working for the group.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Can OurPesa run a normal merry-go-round or VSLA?
Yes — that is exactly what it is built for. You set up the group, members contribute by mobile money or bank, and the app tracks each cycle, whose turn it is to be paid, and every member's balance. Everyone in the group can see the same records.
How do members put money in and take it out?
Members fund their wallet and withdraw using MTN Mobile Money, Airtel Money, Visa or Mastercard, or a direct transfer with Equity Bank or Centenary Bank. The money moves through channels members already use.
Is our group money safe?
OurPesa secures group balances and transaction history so records cannot be quietly changed, and every member can see the shared ledger. That transparency — plus not relying on one treasurer's cash box or notebook — is the whole point.
