Why we built Cashfin.
Most small businesses in Africa run on a notebook, an M-Pesa statement and a lot of memory. Money comes in from many places, stock is counted by hand and the books wait for the weekend. Good businesses lose time and money that way. We built Cashfin to fix that.
Our mission
Give every business in Africa simple tools to get paid, sell and keep track of its money.
Our vision
A day when any business, big or small, can see how it is doing at a glance and grow with confidence.
Get paid the way people pay
M-Pesa first, then card and bank. Every payment lands on the right sale or invoice, so you never chase a code in a statement.
Easy to start, easy to use
Free to start, set up in minutes, and simple enough to run from your phone. No IT team needed.
One set of numbers you can trust
Sales, stock, customers and books live in one place, so the figures always agree and you always know where you stand.
The old way
Running a business shouldn't look like this.
The Cashfin way
One dashboard.
Everything in it.
