Are M-Pesa payments going missing, or taking too long to confirm?

Mobile money integration

M-Pesa, Airtel Money and T-Kash integrations for collections, disbursements and STK Push checkout.

What this covers

Mobile money is how most of this market pays, and each operator has its own API, its own callback behaviour and its own way of failing. We integrate M-Pesa through the Daraja API, alongside Airtel Money and T-Kash, so a checkout is not tied to a single operator and a customer is not turned away for being on the wrong network.

The work covers collections and disbursements, B2B and B2C payment flows, and STK Push, the prompt that appears on the customer’s own handset. Callbacks are the part that bites: they arrive late, arrive twice, or do not arrive at all, so the integration is built to reconcile against the operator rather than to trust a single notification.

What’s included

  • M-Pesa integration through the Daraja API
  • Airtel Money and T-Kash integration
  • Collections and disbursements, including B2B and B2C flows
  • STK Push checkout, the SIM Toolkit prompt on the customer handset
  • Callback handling that survives late, duplicate and missing notifications
  • Reconciliation against the operator rather than trust in one callback

Rails and technologies

M-Pesa DarajaAirtel MoneyT-KashSTK Push
STK Push is the M-Pesa SIM Toolkit prompt, not a card mechanism. The two are built and handled separately, which matters when a transaction has to be traced.
Every platform on this page can be covered by a 24/7/365 SLA support and maintenance agreement, and monitored end to end so a failing transaction flow is seen before your customers report it.
