Step by Step

How a Mkutano meeting works

Six simple steps that transform chaotic paper records into a clean digital trail — even in the village.

01

Open the Meeting Session

The Secretary opens a new session, sets the date, venue, and records who is present. Works offline from the start.

💡 Attendance is captured first — ensuring accurate per-session records even if someone joins late.

02

Record Contributions

Go through each member one by one. Enter their share count, and Mkutano instantly calculates the shilling amount.

💡 Social fund contributions, fines, and other fund types are all captured separately for clean accounting.

03

Issue Loans & Log Repayments

Record any loan disbursements with interest rate and purpose. Then log repayments from previous loans.

💡 Loan balances update instantly. Overdue loans are flagged automatically at the start of the next session.

04

Confirm with the Dispute Screen

Before closing, a full summary screen shows every entry. The group can verify all numbers before signing off.

💡 This single screen has eliminated disputes in 95% of groups using Mkutano. Trust built in real time.

05

Close & Generate Report

Close the meeting session and Mkutano auto-generates the meeting report, ready to download as a PDF.

💡 Reports include attendance, contributions by member, loans issued, repayments, and running fund balance.

06

Sync When Online

When internet is available, all offline data syncs automatically to the cloud. A green badge confirms sync.

💡 NGO partners and MFI lenders can view real-time dashboards once data is synced.
