What Mobile Money Agent Software does for a microfinance institution
Mobile money agent software tracks money sent, received, exchanged and cashed at the agent point, with reconciliation to M-Pesa backend. For a microfinance institution, the value shows up exactly where the work is hardest.
Microfinance institutions track borrowers, loans, repayments, savings accounts and compliance. Microfinance margins come from interest income on loans.
Regulators expect clean loan portfolios and transparent interest calculations. Veira handles that as part of the same sale, so compliance is not a separate evening job.
