JumuiaPay Application
Simplifying Financial Management for Chamas
📌 Overview
JumuiaPay is a digital platform designed to help Chamas (informal savings groups) in Kenya manage their finances more effectively. The app provides real-time tracking of contributions, withdrawals, and loans, making it easier for Chamas to stay transparent, accountable, and organized.
🚀 Our Goal Chamas are an important part of Kenya’s financial system, helping members save and access credit. However, many Chamas still use manual record-keeping, which leads to errors, disputes, and even fraud. JumuiaPay solves these problems by offering:
- Real-Time Transaction Tracking
- Automated Record-Keeping
- Member Contribution Monitoring
- Expense and Loan Management
- Visual Financial Reports
Our goal is to make Chama financial management simpler, more transparent, and more efficient.

=======
This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.
In the project directory, you can run:
Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in your browser.
The page will reload when you make changes.
You may also see any lint errors in the console.
Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.
Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.
The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!
See the section about deployment for more information.
Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can't go back!
If you aren't satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.
Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you're on your own.
You don't have to ever use eject. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn't feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn't be useful if you couldn't customize it when you are ready for it.
You can learn more in the Create React App documentation.
