M-PESA built in

Get paid by M-PESA without the guesswork

No more reading codes off customers' phones or waiting for an SMS on the shop phone. The till sends the payment prompt and knows when the money has arrived.

Two ways to pay, both automatic

  • Send a prompt to the customer's phone: they enter their PIN and the sale completes by itself, with the M-PESA code on the receipt.
  • Customers who pay the till number appear at the till by first name and amount: tap to use the payment on the sale.
  • Safe with several tills: each payment can only be used once, and the code from the customer's SMS is asked for only when two payments could be confused.
  • Drawer and receipt: the receipt prints with the M-PESA code and the drawer can open, like a cash sale.

Questions

M-PESA questions

Can I use my existing Lipa na M-PESA till or paybill?

Yes. We connect Jensec POS to your own till or paybill number, so the money goes straight to your M-PESA account as it does today. Your existing SMS notifications keep working.

How does the till know a customer paid the till number?

Safaricom confirms each payment to Jensec POS. The cashier sees the customer's first name and amount at the till and taps it to complete the sale. A payment can only be used once, even with several tills, and the code from the customer's SMS is asked for only when two payments could be confused.

Do customers still get the M-PESA SMS?

Yes. Customers receive their normal M-PESA confirmation, and the M-PESA code is also printed on the receipt.
