Pricing

Build your Ustawi plan.

Start with Core Lending, add the modules your institution runs, and see your monthly plan before you create an account. Pricing is real and published — set by your team size and branches, not by which modules you turn on. Every new institution starts on a 14-day free trial, no card required.

Configure your institution

Pick your institution type, the modules you run, and your scale — we'll show the plan that fits, with its real published price.

Step 1 — Your institution
Step 2 — Choose your modules

Modules are the capabilities your institution runs. Every module is available on every plan — turning them on doesn't change your price. Some depend on others.

Plan explorer

See what each plan gives you.

Toggle between Starter, Growth, and Enterprise to see the real catalogue figures — price, seats, branches, SMS overage, apps, and support tier. The only estimated number is the SMS-overage estimate.

Every figure here matches the plan cards and comparison table above — one source of truth. The SMS estimator multiplies your chosen volume by the plan's published rate.

SMS is metered above your bundled allotment at each plan's published per-message rate. Actual usage varies.

Real, published monthly pricing

How pricing works

Seats (users)

The number of staff logins is the main driver. Starter covers a small team; Growth scales up; Enterprise is unlimited.

Branches

The physical locations you operate. Starter is single-branch; Growth covers up to five; Enterprise removes the cap.

SMS usage

Borrower and staff notifications are metered above the bundled allotment, at a lower per-message rate on higher plans.

Modules — all included

Every module (VICOBA, compliance, collateral, CRM and the rest) is available on every plan. Turning modules on doesn't change your price.

No per-loan charge

You pay one monthly price per institution. Active loans are never metered — there is no per-loan fee.

What's always included

Every module is available on every plan — plans differ by seats, branches, SMS rate and support tier. See all modules · billing policy.

No surprises

Straightforward billing, real onboarding.

  • No hidden fees, no per-loan charges

    You pay one monthly price per institution, tiered by seats and branches. There is no per-loan pricing — only SMS usage above your bundled allotment is metered, at a published per-message rate.

  • Try it before you commit

    Every new tenant begins on a 14-day free trial with no card required. Choose a paid plan before it ends and settle by bank transfer or mobile money.

  • Move up as you grow

    Start on core lending and switch on more apps, seats, and branches as your portfolio grows — the platform scales from a single-branch SACCO to a multi-tenant operator.

Frequently asked questions

Is pricing per user, per loan, or per branch?

Per institution per month, set by seats and branches (see the plan cards above); usage above the bundled SMS allotment is metered separately. There is no per-loan pricing.

Do the modules I choose change my price?

No. Every module — VICOBA, compliance, collateral, CRM, insurance and the rest — is available on every plan. Your price is determined by your plan (seats and branches), plus SMS usage over your bundle. You enable the modules your institution needs at no extra module fee.

How is my plan decided?

By your scale: Starter covers up to 5 users and 1 branch, Growth up to 20 users and 5 branches, and Enterprise is unlimited. Use the configurator at the top of this page to see which plan fits your team and branches.

Is there a free trial or pilot?

Yes — every new tenant starts with a 14-day free trial on registration, with no card required. You choose a paid plan before the trial ends and pay by bank transfer or mobile money (M-Pesa, Tigo Pesa, Airtel Money, HaloPesa).

Do you offer annual billing or a discount for paying yearly?

No — plans are billed monthly only; there is no annual tier.

What support/SLA is included per plan?

Every plan is covered by our 99.9% uptime target. Support response times are layered on top through support tiers (Standard, Priority, Dedicated) — see the Service Level Agreement and the Support plans page.

How does pricing work for a platform operator running multiple tenants?

Platform operators use the Multi-tenant Platform & Billing app to provision tenants and consolidate billing across their portfolio; portfolio pricing is arranged directly — contact sales for a quote.
