MlimiPrepay for agrodealers and input companies

Offer prepayment to your farmers without building it yourself

MlimiPrepay is the prepayment and redemption system behind your programme. Your customers prepay by USSD, MlimiPOS or SMS over Airtel Money and TNM Mpamba. You keep your farmers, your prices and your money.

MlimiPrepay is

  • Infrastructure under your brand and your programme
  • Payments routed to your wallet or bank account
  • Built for basic phones and rural connections

MlimiPrepay is not

  • A lender: customers prepay for inputs that already exist
  • A wallet holding your money
  • A competitor for your customers

Why not build it in-house?

Running prepayment means USSD menus, mobile money integrations, SMS, account numbers, reconciliation, redemption at collection points and reports. That costs a lot of money and time to build and maintain, especially for one season's programme. MlimiPrepay gives you all of it, already working with Malawian farmers.
