Questions, answered plainly.

What is FinoQ Personal?

A payments app for individuals. Through FinoQ you open a wallet managed by a licensed partner bank or Fintech-as-a-Service provider, then send to mobile money, banks and bills, request payments, and send to people in other African countries, all from one app and approved with your PIN.

How do I add money to my wallet?

Deposit from your M-PESA. You get a prompt on your phone, enter your M-PESA PIN, and the money lands in your wallet.

Can I send money outside Kenya?

Yes. Choose the country you are sending to, then mobile money or a bank account. The networks and banks available there load for you.

How do I know I am paying the right person?

Before you send, FinoQ can check the name registered to the phone number or bank account. You see it on the confirm screen before you enter your PIN.

Who holds my money?

Licensed partner banks and Fintech-as-a-Service providers manage your wallet and hold your funds. You open the wallet with them through FinoQ, and FinoQ brings it into one app, and every payment you make needs your FinoQ PIN.

Collecting for a shop, school or team?

FinoQ Business connects the paybill, till and bank you already use, checks the people you pay, and keeps eTIMS and Zoho Books in step.

It takes a few minutes. Deposit from M-PESA when you are ready to send.
