Frequently Asked Questions
Can I track profit from M-Pesa statements alone?
Statements show money movement but not package cost, delivery status, or why a refund occurred. Link them to order records.
How often should I reconcile?
Daily is best for active sellers because exceptions are easier to investigate while details are recent.
Does BingwaOne register new Bingwa Sokoni agents?
No. BingwaOne provides business tools for existing agents. Confirm current registration, activation, and official service requirements through Safaricom or an authorized onboarding channel.
