Loan-account management and disbursement system for microfinance institutions in emerging markets
Purpose-built loan lifecycle and repayment-tracking platform replacing spreadsheets for MFIs across Africa and South Asia, with built-in compliance, collection workflows, and agent-ready APIs.
The problem
MFIs in emerging markets manually track loan accounts, repayment schedules, and collections using spreadsheets or paper ledgers, leading to lost repayments, inability to scale beyond 500–2000 borrowers, and no audit trail for regulatory compliance or donor reporting.
Who has it: Microfinance institutions in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia with active loan portfolios of 500–10,000 borrowers and annual loan volume under $5M, operating in villages or tier-2 cities without legacy banking integrations.
Why now: Digital-first expansion in Africa and South Asia is accelerating; affordable mobile payment infrastructure (M-Pesa, bKash, UPI) now exists to enable programmatic repayments, and regulators in Kenya, Nigeria, and Bangladesh are requiring electronic audit trails for loan portfolios.
