The Problem

M-Pesa handles 80% of your revenue.
Excel handles your reconciliation.

Kenyan retail shops, logistics firms, and SMEs process the majority of their revenue through M-Pesa, but Safaricom was built as a payment network, not an accounting system. That gap is costing businesses hours every week and thousands of shillings in missed discrepancies.

3–4 hours every week on manual reconciliation

Most SMEs and retail shops download M-Pesa statements, paste them into Excel, and spend their Friday afternoons matching payments to invoices line by line. Every entry is a chance for a mistake.

No live view of what has been paid and what has not

Without a real-time dashboard, logistics firms and retailers either call customers to confirm payment or discover a missed invoice weeks after it was due, costing time and cash flow.

Month-end is a scramble

Pulling reports from M-Pesa, bank statements, and a separate invoicing tool means your accountant gets the numbers late or wrong. For SMEs handling hundreds of daily payments, this compounds fast.

Live Dashboard

Every M-Pesa payment your business receives, organised automatically

Retail shops, logistics firms, and SMEs across Nairobi use Gigva to replace spreadsheet reconciliation with a real-time dashboard. Below is what their screen looks like.

How It Works

From M-Pesa payment to reconciled books, automatically

Here is exactly what Gigva does for retail shops, logistics companies, and SMEs that handle daily M-Pesa transactions. No vague promises, just the specific steps.

1

Connect your M-Pesa Paybill or Till number

Setup once

Enter your Safaricom Daraja credentials in Settings. Gigva registers a C2B webhook URL with Safaricom. This is a one-time setup that takes under 10 minutes.

INYour Paybill number + Daraja API credentials
OUTLive webhook active. Payments start streaming in
2

Every payment is captured the moment it arrives

3–5 second capture

When a customer pays your Paybill, Safaricom sends a callback to Gigva within 3–5 seconds. Gigva records the sender name, phone number, amount, reference code, and exact timestamp.

INCustomer M-Pesa payment (C2B)
OUTStructured transaction record with full metadata
3

Transactions are automatically matched to invoices

Automatic

Gigva compares each incoming payment against your open invoices using the payment amount and customer reference. When the match is exact, the invoice is marked paid and the transaction is reconciled instantly.

INIncoming payment + your open invoices
OUTInvoice marked paid · transaction reconciled
4

Mismatches and errors are flagged immediately

Instant alert

Partial payments, wrong reference codes, or amounts that do not match any invoice are surfaced in your dashboard with full context. You see exactly what the issue is and can resolve it in one click: manual override or create a new invoice.

INUnmatched or partial payment
OUTAlert with transaction detail + resolution options
5

Generate your reconciliation report at any time

One click

Pull a reconciliation report for any date range: all transactions, their match status, outstanding invoices, and a cash summary. Download as CSV for your accountant or PDF for your records.

One Platform

Four modules. One account. One invoice.

Gigva is a single platform, not a bundle of separate products. Every module shares the same transaction data, the same interface, and the same subscription. Retail shops and SMEs get everything they need without paying for tools they will never use.
