Passion turned profession

The goal
Easier way to accept and manage payments
As Wanjiku’s business grew, she needed a payment provider to help her stay on top of all the day-to-day transactions.
The solution
Dependable payment partner
She learned about Kopo Kopo from a friend and decided to seek more information. She got on the website and got in touch with our customer service team. She was impressed by the fast response she received, which answered all her questions, and was able to get her first Lipa Na M-PESA number in no time.
The results
Sweet success!
Since she opened an account with Kopo Kopo, Wanjiku has not had any problems getting statements or accepting payments. She enjoys the cash advance service which allows her to access credit to boost her business. The service is also very convenient because she can make payments directly from the till number. She adds that she is happy that Kopo Kopo has always been adding new features to improve the service.
“My advice to anyone starting a business is that you should not ignore finances. It is a very big part of your business. You need to know when money has been paid by your clients, you need to access the money when you need it and you also need someone to walk with you when you need to buy things. So, get a good partner like Kopo Kopo for your till number and your business finances will be sorted.” -Wanjiku Lucia Mugo
