Paluwagan, made clear

A paluwagan app for your group

Paluwagan is the Filipino form of rotating savings: an agreed contribution each payday, and each member taking a turn to receive the pooled amount. NjangiMe keeps the schedule and the record straight for everyone.

Paluwagan in the Philippines and the diaspora

Paluwagan groups usually run on payday cycles, so timing matters. NjangiMe calculates due dates, sends reminders before each one and shows the whole group how far through the cycle you are.

How it works on NjangiMe

Invite your members

Circles are invite-only. Admins invite by email and track who has joined.

Agree the schedule

Set the contribution amount, currency, frequency and picking order once.

Take turns collecting

Each round one member receives the pooled amount until everyone has picked.

Built for group trust

Reminders before every due date

Members are notified ahead of each contribution, and late payments raise an alert.

One shared record

Every member sees the same contribution history, balances and payout order.

Never holds your money

NjangiMe tracks and coordinates. Funds move directly between members and the group's own account.

Common questions

How do members pay?
Members pay by card or bank transfer. NjangiMe records the payment against their contribution automatically.
Is the group public?
No. Circles are invite-only and cannot be discovered or joined without an emailed invitation.

Bring clarity to your circle

NjangiMe helps invite-only groups track contributions, due dates and picking order in one place. It provides coordination and visibility; it is not a bank and does not hold members' money.
