Everything your business needs to manage utilities

Nokanda for Business is the utilities platform we built for businesses and organizations in Rwanda. It takes the everyday work of keeping meters loaded and phones connected — buying EUCL electricity, buying MTN airtime, collecting the receipts your accountant needs — and puts it in one account that you can work from.

Below are the platform's features, area by area. The service is free and easy to use; you fund a wallet and buy from it.

Bulk utility purchasing

Whether you own twenty meters, or two hundred, you can easily buy for all of them at once through the platform, in a matter of seconds.

Single purchases are also still possible and just a click away.

Centralized billing and invoices

Every purchase you make is written to one transactions ledger with its date, the meter or number it went to, the service and the amount in RWF

You can filter transactions by period or service, and export the results in different formats, making it easy to reconcile your billing and invoices.

Certified EBM receipts

Every electricity purchase you make comes with its own VAT-certified EBM receipt, ready to download from the transaction itself.

You can either download receipts for a single purchase or a period of time and you get notified whenever a new receipt is available for download.

The user guide shows how to request and download receipts, including linking your TIN to a meter so the receipts come out in your company's name.
