Payment Information Handling

Payment processing is handled through our trusted payment partner, Tuma (tuma.co.ke), for M-Pesa Express transactions. When you make a deposit:

Your phone number is sent securely to Tuma to initiate the M-Pesa STK Push

Tuma processes the payment through Safaricom's M-Pesa infrastructure

We receive only the payment status, amount, and M-Pesa receipt number

We do NOT store your M-Pesa PIN, bank account details, or full card numbers

Payment receipts are stored securely for audit and dispute resolution purposes

All payment data is transmitted over encrypted (HTTPS) connections.

Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate and improve our website:

Essential cookies: required for authentication, session management, and core functionality. These cannot be disabled.

Analytics cookies: help us understand how visitors use our site so we can improve performance and user experience. These are anonymous and do not contain personal identifiers.

Preference cookies: remember your settings such as language or theme preferences

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling non-essential cookies will not affect core functionality but may limit some features. For more details, see our Cookie Policy.

Data Security

We take data security seriously and implement industry-standard measures to protect your information:

All data is transmitted over HTTPS (TLS 1.2+) encrypted connections

Passwords are securely hashed using bcrypt — we never store plain-text passwords

Sensitive provider credentials are encrypted using AES-256 encryption

Row-Level Security (RLS) policies enforce data isolation between users

Wallet balances can only be modified through secure server-side functions, not direct database access

Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments are conducted

Financial transaction records are immutable and cannot be deleted

Despite our efforts, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security but are committed to protecting your data.
