What M-Pesa Payments and Reconciliation does for a auto repair shop
It links every Buy Goods, Paybill and Pochi payment to the matching sale, so the till balances itself. For a auto repair shop, the value shows up exactly where the work is hardest.
Auto repair shops track vehicles in progress, repair status, spare parts and labor hours per job. Auto repair margins come from labor markup and parts margins.
Corporate fleet and individual customers expect clear estimates and warranty. Veira handles that as part of the same sale, so compliance is not a separate evening job.
