From approval to settlement

The platform

Everything a finance team needs to pay out at scale.

From a single payment to a bulk run of thousands, PesaMaal keeps every disbursement controlled, compliant, and fully traceable.

Multi-channel disbursement

Pay bank accounts, M-Pesa, and digital wallets from one balance. One workflow across every rail.

Maker-checker approvals

Every payout needs a second approver. Self-approval is blocked by design, with no exceptions.

Sanctions & AML screening

Beneficiaries are checked against OFAC and UN consolidated lists on every create and update.

Multi-currency wallets

Hold a balance per currency and disburse across borders with built-in conversion support.

Bulk & voucher payouts

Upload a spreadsheet for thousands of payments, or issue PIN-secured vouchers for cash collection.

Risk agent & webhooks

Live risk-exposure scoring across your pipeline, plus signed webhooks into your own systems.

How it works

Three steps from balance to beneficiary.

01

Fund your wallet

Top up via M-Pesa or bank transfer and hold a balance in every currency you pay out in.

02

Create a disbursement

Single payment or bulk upload. Beneficiaries are KYC-checked and sanctions-screened automatically.

03

Approve & settle

A second approver signs off, funds settle through the channel, and everyone gets an audit trail.

Security first

Built like the money depends on it.

PesaMaal moves real funds, so every layer is designed for control and accountability, from login to ledger.
