What M-Pesa Payments and Reconciliation does for a electronics shop
It links every Buy Goods, Paybill and Pochi payment to the matching sale, so the till balances itself. For a electronics shop, the value shows up exactly where the work is hardest.
Electronics are high value and often serialised, so each unit should be tracked by IMEI or serial, not counted in bulk. Margins on phones are thin while accessories and repairs carry more, so the product mix decides the result.
Higher ticket sizes mean buyers often need an eTIMS invoice for their own records or VAT claims. Veira handles that as part of the same sale, so compliance is not a separate evening job.
