Tenant self-service

Residents can pay, buy tokens, report issues, and view receipts from a mobile-first app.

O

Owner-ready reporting

Turn daily operations into summaries landlords can trust: payouts, arrears, usage, and maintenance.

For agencies, estates & landlords

Run a portfolio. Not a fire department.

Property managers running 10 to 10,000 units use Mali Smart to collect rent, vend water, dispatch maintenance, and pay landlords — without growing the back-office.

Multi-building portfolios

Manage Karen, Kilimani, and Kileleshwa from a single dashboard. Every building is its own ledger, every tenant tagged to a unit.

  • Unlimited buildings & units
  • Role-based staff access
  • Owner vs. agency views

Automated landlord payouts

Configure payout day, fees, and split rules once. The platform settles to landlord M-Pesa or bank — every cycle, every time.

  • Scheduled M-Pesa B2C
  • Per-landlord statements
  • Reconciled to the shilling

Tenant lifecycle

Onboard, lease, bill, renew, and offboard with full audit trail. No more lost deposit ledgers or missing handover sheets.

  • Digital lease handoff
  • Deposits & arrears tracked
  • Move-out reconciliations

Operational reporting

Board-ready PDF reports on demand. P&L per building, vending volumes, ticket SLAs, and arrears aging — at month-end or anytime.

  • Per-building P&L
  • Arrears aging exports
  • Vendor performance

The operators, landlords, and residents who switched — aren't going back.

We retired four spreadsheets in the first week. Rent settles to our M-Pesa by 10am every payout day — without anyone calling tenants.

Water disputes basically disappeared. Tenants buy tokens on their phone in seconds, and we get one clean statement at month-end. Worth every shilling.

I pay rent and buy water from one app while I commute. When my kitchen tap leaked, a plumber arrived in 90 minutes. This is how a house should run.
