Every Loan You Give in Malawi — Tracked, Managed, Repaid.
Loans in Malawi are mostly informal — between individuals, small businesses, and community groups. The problem is not finding borrowers. The problem is tracking who owes what, when it is due, and making sure they actually pay.
Most lenders in Malawi track loans in a notebook, an Excel sheet, or their WhatsApp messages. By the time a due date arrives, they have forgotten to follow up — and the borrower has conveniently forgotten too.
Halupay is a loan management app built specifically for the way loans work in Malawi. You record the borrower's name, phone number, the amount you gave out, the interest rate, and the due date. Halupay calculates the total repayment automatically and sends the borrower an SMS reminder 3 days before, on the due date, and again if they are overdue.
No more chasing. No more forgotten due dates. No more lost money.

How do I track loans in Malawi without a spreadsheet?
Halupay replaces your notebook or Excel sheet. Add each borrower once, record their loan details, and the app tracks everything — repayments, outstanding balances, overdue loans — and reminds borrowers automatically.
