MyChama Is Live

Today we are excited to announce that MyChama.app is officially live and open to chama groups across Kenya.

What is MyChama?

MyChama is a digital platform purpose-built for Kenyan savings groups — chamas, welfare groups, and investment clubs. It replaces the spreadsheets, WhatsApp threads, and paper ledgers that most groups rely on with a single, easy-to-use platform.

What you can do with MyChama

• Track contributions — see who has paid, who is late, and how much the group has collected, all in real time
• Manage loans — apply for loans, track repayments, and calculate interest automatically
• Process welfare claims — submit and approve welfare requests with a clear paper trail
• Collect via M-Pesa — members can contribute directly through M-Pesa, and the system records it automatically
• View reports — treasurers and chairpersons get clear financial summaries without manual number crunching

Built for how chamas actually work

We talked to dozens of chama treasurers, chairpersons, and members before writing a single line of code. The result is a platform that fits the way Kenyan savings groups already operate — monthly contributions, merry-go-rounds, loan cycles, welfare funds — rather than forcing groups into a generic finance tool.
