## What M-Pesa Payments and Reconciliation does for a phone shop

It links every Buy Goods, Paybill and Pochi payment to the matching sale, so the till balances itself. For a phone shop, the value shows up exactly where the work is hardest.

Phones are high value and serialised, so each handset should be tracked by IMEI, not counted in bulk. Handset margins are thin while accessories and repairs carry more, so the mix decides the result.

Higher ticket sales mean buyers often need an eTIMS invoice for their records. Veira handles that as part of the same sale, so compliance is not a separate evening job.

## Phone Shops run differently, and the software should too
