MOBILE LOANS DISPENSATION
Saccotek has an instant mobile loan dispensation feature that is implemented via the M-pesa Business-to-Consumer (B2C)
mechanism.
This happens in real-time basis.
All you need to do is set up parameters that the software will verify before declaring the qualifications of a member’s
loan request.
Once the amount qualified is verified, the software links to the M-pesa portal automatically to check on the available
balance before dispensing the loan amount to the members’ phone number instantly.
This feature can be accessed either through a USSD platform or the online members portal.
This kind of innovation serves to promote compliance among members so as to ensure they qualify for higher amounts of
this mobile loan.
BANK & M-PESA INTEGRATION
The Sacco Software has the capacity for integration with a number of banks such as Co-operative Bank, Equity Bank,
Family Bank, KCB, DTB & M-Pesa.
This allows seamless communication between the financial institutions & the Co-operative at no extra fee.
The software will receive debit notifications whenever members make payments to the Sacco
irrespective of the channel they use.
This in turn reduces the need to manually post transactions because the data is
automatically dispensed within the software.
This kind of transactions promote transparency & accuracy of the
transactional data from members. It also serves to ease up on the laborious tasks of banking reconciliation.
CASH BOOK & GENERAL LEDGER MODULE
The Cash book captures all Accounts Receivables & Accounts Payables like Shares & Savings Contributions, Loan
Disbursements & Repayments, Incomes & Expenses etc.
The software enables faster adaptation of these transactions into the financial platform with the integration of Banks &
M-Pesa notifications to ensure synchronization of information & fasttrack data processing.
The General Ledger is composed of financial reports that are necessary in the day to day running of Saccos.
These reports are SASRA compliant.
Therefore, submission of vital documentation to the regulator will be easy & automated.
You get unfettered access to reports such as Ageing reports for Creditors & Debtors, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow,
GL Journals Trial Balance, Profit & Loss Statement among others.
ONLINE MEMBERS PORTAL
Saccotek Sacco software has an integrated mobile friendly member portal that is accessible on any mobile device with a working
internet connection.
Your members will be able to log in to the portal whereby they can access information such as account &
loan statements, current balances of their savings, loans or any other accounts held with the Sacco.
The Sacco may also post announcements & notices on this portal so as to reach their members in good time.
Members can also post enquiries, complaints & other types of feedback for quick resolution by the Sacco officials.
Another new option that is available for your Sacco on this online mobile portal platform is the Automated Share Certificate
Generator.
This feature generates a share certificate with genuine signature specimens of the management officials.
This certificate when printed on demand, can be used as proof of membership of the Sacco.
BULK SMS SERVICES
Bulk SMS services are integral to the software as a mode of communication & alert notification.
We have partnered with an International Service Provider (ISP) to help us provide the best services to our clientele.
For this, we recommend the purchase of a Sender ID that will be used as the title for any sms sent to members by the software.
This will promote the authenticity of the communication channel to members.
Sender IDs are sourced for all networks that you intend to send messages to.
For example, you will be at liberty to choose whether you want to purchase one for Safaricom, Airtel or Telkom.
Each of these have a one-off fee of Kshs 10,000.
The only other cost involved in this services is the purchase of SMS bundles which can cost anywhere between Kshs 0.4 to 0.8
dependent on the number of SMS purchased.
