Mobile money

Vodacom Tanzania

Airtel Tanzania

formerly Tigo Pesa

Halotel Tanzania

Used for escrow funding, larger disbursements and corporate buyer settlement by transfer. Every transfer carries a TunaKua reference.

Transfer and standing order

Accepted for deposits where a card is easier than a transfer. Cards are used for funding only, never for payouts.

Debit and credit cards

How money moves

Investors and borrowers move money in from mobile money, a bank transfer or a card. The deposit is matched to your account by reference.

Funded capital sits in segregated escrow. Nothing is released until the project reaches a verified milestone.

Disbursement goes directly to the supplier's bank account or mobile money wallet, never through the borrower's own hands.

When the corporate buyer pays the invoice, the ledger distributes principal, investor return, platform fee, management fee and the borrower's profit.

Good to know

All balances, deposits and payouts are held and settled in Tanzanian Shillings (TZS).
Payouts go to the bank account or mobile money number saved on your profile. Keep it current to avoid delays.
Every movement is recorded against a unique reference you can see in your wallet history and export to CSV.
TunaKua never asks for your PIN or full card details over the phone, email or WhatsApp.

Corporate buyers settling large invoices can arrange direct bank instructions with our finance team.
