Like most companies yours is likely been making payments in conventional ways i.e cash, cheques, bank transfers and occasionally mobile money. The mix of multiple and fragmented payment methods result in huge inefficiencies and losses, that companies have almost become accustomed to, such as;

- Risks when withdrawing petty cash and mistakes or misappropriation in its use
- Uncertainty on utilization of staff cash allowance and validity of expense claims
- Time and costs of preparing and circulating small value cheques for signatures
- Time and costs in paying casuals in bulk weekly in cash or through the bank
- Time consuming reconciliation for small value payments made in various ways

Well, through the intersection of financial services and technology, there is now a better way to for companies to make payments and manage expenditure.
