What Kwimbo gives you

Not just records. Real financial intelligence.

Kwimbo turns your group's financial activity into clear data, trends, and insights — information that can help you make smart decisions.

Most powerful

Group Financial Intelligence

See your group's real repayment rate, fund growth percentage, interest generated, savings trends, and monthly performance — all displayed in clean charts and summary figures. Know whether your 80% repayment rate should be celebrated or pushed to 90%. Excel cannot do this.

Simple Record Entry

A member pays — an admin taps approve. That's it. No opening a spreadsheet, no finding the right row, no recalculating totals, no saving and resharing the file. One action per transaction, and every number updates instantly across the entire group. Admins can also record on behalf of any member, so nothing falls through the cracks.

Loan Management

Members request loans through the app. Admins review, check the member's risk rating, and approve, edit or decline. Repayment schedules, interest calculations, and outstanding balances are all tracked automatically.

Automated Payment Reminders

The app sends custom notifications to members before payment obligations are due. Admins no longer need to chase individuals — the system handles compliance communication automatically.

Per member + group

Credit Scoring

Every member builds a credit score based on their actual contribution history, repayment behaviour, and loan management over time. The group receives an overall score that summarises its collective financial discipline in a single number — a metric most groups have never seen before.

Admin only

Loan Default Risk Prediction

Just because a member is entitled to a loan does not mean the loan request should be automatically approved, Kwimbo analyses each member's repayment history, savings behaviour, active loan load, payment trends, and penalty record to generate a default risk rating. Protect your group's money with data.

Getting started

Up and running in minutes

No paperwork. No hassle. Just your group, your rules, and your data.

01

Create your group

Sign up and configure your group — contribution schedule, interest rate, loan terms, and cycle duration. Set your rules once. The app enforces them automatically from that point forward.

02

Add your members

Add members by phone number and bring in existing savings, loans, and repayment history. When members sign-up on the app or website, they claim their profile and immediately see their own financial records.

03

Let the data work for you

As transactions flow in, Kwimbo builds repayment trends, credit scores, risk ratings, and fund performance reports automatically. The longer you use it, the smarter it gets.

For every member

Your money. Your records.
Visible to you, always.

You don't have to wait for a monthly reports to know where you stand. Download the app, claim your profile, and see your savings balance, loan history, repayment record, and credit score in real time.

When the whole group is on Kwimbo, transparency isn't something the administrators have to create — it's simply there. Everyone sees the same numbers. Accountability follows naturally.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Who is Kwimbo Bank designed for?
Kwimbo Bank is built primarily for savings group treasurers and administrators — anyone who currently manages a village bank, chama, or stokvel using spreadsheets or manual records. It's equally valuable for ordinary members who want real-time visibility of their own financial records and the health of the group.
What if my group already has financial history in a spreadsheet?
When adding members, admins can backfill historical savings, loan, and repayment data directly into the app. This means your group's entire financial history is captured from day one, and Kwimbo can generate accurate reports and analytics immediately — not just from the point you started using the app.
What happens if not all members are on the app?
Admins can log transactions on behalf of any member, ensuring records remain complete regardless of whether that member has downloaded the app. When members eventually join, they claim their profile using their registered phone number and instantly see their full history.
What is the loan default risk prediction feature?
When a loan request is made, Kwimbo Bank looks at the member’s past behaviour — how they’ve repaid previous loans, whether they’ve missed payments, how active they are, and how much they’ve saved over time. It then combines all of this into a simple risk level — from low to critical — to help you make a better decision. This doesn’t replace your judgement as an administrator. It strengthens it. You still decide, but now you’re deciding with clear, data-backed insight instead of guesswork. Think of it as a second opinion — one that never forgets past records and always looks at the full picture. This feature only kicks in after 6 months of financial data is available but it will work better and be more accurate with more data over time. Note that this app does not us AI - it simply tracks past behaviour in order to help you make smarter decisions when giving out loans.
How are credit scores calculated?
Each member's credit score is built automatically from their contribution compliance, loan repayment history, and overall financial behaviour within the group over time. The group also receives an aggregate score reflecting its collective financial discipline. These scores improve as more data accumulates.
What kind of reports can the app generate?
Kwimbo generates consolidated reports — a full picture of the group's current financial position — and monthly reports for each period where data exists, up to 12 months back. Reports can be downloaded directly from the app, ready to share at meetings or for record-keeping.
Is the app free to use?
Yes, creating an account and setting up your group is free. Sign up, configure your group settings, add your members, and start managing your finances immediately.

Your group has the data.
It's time to use it.
