Why every Kenyan business needs automatic backups
A crashed server, a stolen laptop or a ransomware attack can wipe out years of records in minutes. Here is how automatic backups protect your business.
STK push sends the M-Pesa payment prompt straight to your customer's phone. No more wrong till numbers or wrong amounts.
When a customer pays by typing your PayBill or Till number, mistakes happen: a wrong digit, a wrong account number or the wrong amount. STK push removes those mistakes.
What is STK push?
STK push (also called Lipa na M-Pesa Online) lets your system send a payment request to the customer's phone. The customer sees a pop-up with your business name and the exact amount, enters their M-Pesa PIN, and the payment is done. Your system receives the confirmation instantly.
Where it helps
- Schools: parents pay fees from a link and the receipt is posted to the student's account.
- Churches: members choose tithe, offering or a project and give in seconds.
- Landlords: tenants pay rent and receive a receipt by SMS.
- Shops and pharmacies: faster checkout at the counter and online.
