What M-Pesa Payments and Reconciliation does for a recycling yard
It links every Buy Goods, Paybill and Pochi payment to the matching sale, so the till balances itself. For a recycling yard, the value shows up exactly where the work is hardest.
A recycling yard buys, sorts and resells by weight and grade, so accurate weighing and grade tracking matter. Recycling margins come from the spread on material prices, which move daily, so price timing and volume matter.
Recyclers may need eTIMS invoices for large sales to institutions and processors. Veira handles that as part of the same sale, so compliance is not a separate evening job.
