What does FOBO Technologies do? +

FOBO Technologies builds payments, messaging and core banking infrastructure for Kenyan institutions. FOBO Control handles MPESA collections (C2B), payouts (B2C and B2B), bulk SMS and USSD. FOBO Core Banking is a double-entry core banking system for SACCOs and cooperatives.

Which product is right for my organisation? +

If you need to collect money, pay people or message members, start with FOBO Control; it works alongside any existing system. If you are a SACCO or cooperative replacing a legacy core, FOBO Core Banking manages members, savings, loans, guarantors and SASRA provisioning on one ledger.

Do I need to replace my current system? +

No. FOBO Control runs standalone out of the box, or connects to your existing system through REST APIs and real-time webhooks. FOBO Core Banking migrates you with a parallel run, so live operations are never interrupted.

How are MPESA payments reconciled? +

Every Paybill or STK Push payment is matched to the right member account the moment it clears, an SMS receipt is sent automatically, and a webhook notifies your system. There is no end-of-day statement matching.

Can members without smartphones use it? +

Yes. The USSD portal lets members check balances, view statements, apply for and repay loans, and withdraw to MPESA from any phone, without internet access.

How secure is the platform? +

Payouts can require maker-checker approval, API access is restricted by IP whitelisting and scoped API keys, roles are enforced on the server, and every action is written to a permanent audit log.

How long does onboarding take? +

Most organisations go live within days. We handle Paybill and shortcode registration with Safaricom, sender ID setup and the import of your member data.
