The situation

What do SACCOs & Microfinance need from a website?

SACCO members want to know loan terms, dividend rates, meeting dates and branch contacts, and most of them ask by phone or in person. A clear website answers those questions once, for everyone, and lets the office spend its time on members who need real help with an application or a statement.

Finance keeps growing in Kenya. The KNBS Economic Survey 2026 reported that financial and insurance activities grew 6.5 per cent in 2025, and the CRA County Fact Sheets list finance and insurance as the leading economic activity in Nairobi County. Members of a well-run SACCO expect the same clear, current information online that they get from a bank.

We host SACCO and microfinance websites with a free SSL certificate on every plan, business email on your own domain for the board and staff, and support 24/7 in English and Swahili. Corporate Hosting adds daily backups, which suits an institution whose notices, forms and records change often.

Common problems

What usually goes wrong?

Members call for basic information

Staff answer the same questions about loan types, interest rates and requirements all day, which slows down members who need real help.

Notices do not reach everyone

AGM dates, dividend announcements and rule changes shared only on paper or in chat groups miss members who were not in the room.

Free email looks unofficial

Officials writing from personal free mailboxes make members and partners less sure a message really comes from the SACCO.

Questions

SACCOs & Microfinance: questions answered

What should a SACCO website include?
Start with who can join, the loan and savings products with their main terms, how to apply, branch contacts and a notices page. Downloadable membership and loan forms save members a trip. Keep rates and requirements current, because outdated terms on the website lead to complaints and confusion at the counter.
Can members apply for loans through the website?
A website can take enquiries and accept uploaded application forms, which staff then review. Full online loan processing with member logins is a separate system, usually provided by core banking or SACCO software vendors. Your website can link to that portal so members find everything from one address.
Is the website secure enough for a financial institution?
Every plan includes a free SSL certificate, so data sent through forms is encrypted in transit. Keep sensitive member records in your SACCO management system rather than on the public website, and use strong passwords for anyone who can edit the site. Corporate Hosting adds daily backups for extra protection.
Can each official have their own email address?
Yes. Hosting plans include business email on your own domain, so the chairperson, treasurer, manager and loan officers can each have an address. Shared mailboxes such as loans@ or info@ also help, because messages stay with the SACCO when officials change after elections.
How do we pay for hosting?
Hosting is priced in Kenyan shillings and can be paid yearly by M-Pesa, and the invoice is issued in the SACCO's name for your records. Support is available 24/7 in English and Swahili if staff need help updating the site.
Which plan suits a SACCO?
A small SACCO with a few pages and forms can start on shared hosting. A larger society with several branches, frequent updates and many staff mailboxes is better on Corporate Hosting, which includes daily backups. We can advise once we know how many members and branches you serve.
