Stokvels, modernised

A stokvel app your members can trust

Stokvels are a cornerstone of community saving in South Africa. Members commit to a regular contribution and take turns receiving the pooled amount. NjangiMe makes the record keeping effortless and visible to everyone.

Stokvel in South Africa

Whether your stokvel saves for groceries, funerals or year-end, the mechanics are the same: agreed amounts, agreed dates, agreed order. NjangiMe records all three and reminds members before each due date.

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

Is NjangiMe a bank?
No. NjangiMe is a coordination and tracking platform. It never holds or moves your stokvel's money.
Can we invite members by email?
Yes. Stokvels on NjangiMe are strictly invite-only — admins send email invitations and can revoke or resend them.

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.
