What Mobile Money Agent Software does for a digital payment agent
Mobile money agent software tracks money sent, received, exchanged and cashed at the agent point, with reconciliation to M-Pesa backend. For a digital payment agent, the value shows up exactly where the work is hardest.
A digital payment agent manages float and transaction records daily. Digital payment margins are thin on transfers but can be higher on bill services.
Digital payment agents must comply with FIU and provider regulations for transaction reporting. Veira handles that as part of the same sale, so compliance is not a separate evening job.
