About Ledgera

Built in Nairobi,
for Kenyan chamas.

We built Ledgera because the tools chamas were using, notebooks, spreadsheets, WhatsApp threads, were not built for how chamas actually work.

Our story

Built for a problem we know personally.

A member swears she paid in March. The record shows nothing. The group has been together for four years and now two people are not speaking. The treasurer did nothing wrong. The record just was not good enough to settle it.

We have seen that scene too many times. Loans approved informally and never written down. Statements that take a Sunday afternoon to produce, pulled from a spreadsheet on the outgoing treasurer's personal laptop. Records that live with one person instead of with the group.

Ledgera was built in Nairobi to fix this properly. Contributions recorded with receipts. Loans that follow your group's own rules. Reports available in minutes. And records that belong to the group, not to any one person who might leave.

We are building something more specific than record-keeping software. A chama on Ledgera can walk into a bank with clean contribution records. New members can verify how the group has been run before they commit their money. The records survive when a treasurer leaves.

What we stand for

Transparency and trust.

Full visibility for every member

Every member can see their own record at any time. Every admin action is logged. Nothing is changed quietly. Nothing is held back.

Rules that apply to everyone

A chama's rules exist for a reason. Ledgera enforces them consistently, for every member, every time. No room for favouritism or exceptions.

Built for real groups

Ledgera is designed for how chamas actually operate: monthly meetings, M-Pesa payments, loan decisions, and the trust relationships between real people.

Data and compliance

Your data belongs to your group.

When group money is managed informally, all it takes is one argument, one member who leaves suddenly, or one unreadable notebook to put the whole chama at risk. Ledgera keeps the record independent of any single person. The group owns it. Not the treasurer. Not the admin. The group.

We do not sell member data. We do not share it with third parties without consent. Your group's financial records are stored securely and accessible only to your authorised administrators and members. Ledgera is compliant with the Kenya Data Protection Act 2019.
