Mobile Money Integration & Payment Collection for Banks

Mobile money as a first-class rail — collection, disbursement, and reconciliation across the wallets your customers actually use, posting to an idempotent, conserving ledger.

The problem

  • Mobile-money integrations bolted on outside the ledger cause reconciliation nightmares.
  • Duplicate webhooks and retries create double-postings without idempotency.
  • Multi-provider, multi-country rails are hard to maintain as you expand.

How it works

Four steps, all on a single audited core banking ledger.

  1. 1

    Initiate

    A collection or payout is initiated; the customer approves on their phone.

  2. 2

    Confirm

    A signed provider webhook confirms the payment; idempotency prevents duplicates.

  3. 3

    Post

    The payment posts atomically to the ledger with a balanced entry.

  4. 4

    Reconcile

    Provider settlement is reconciled against the ledger; any drift is flagged.

Mobile Money & Payments: FAQ

How does Sika integrate mobile money?

Sika treats mobile money as a first-class rail: it collects and disburses across MTN MoMo, Telecel, AirtelTigo, and M-Pesa (and card/bank via Paystack and ExpressPay), with signed webhooks and idempotency keys so payments post atomically and reconcile against the ledger.

How does Sika prevent double-postings?

Every settlement uses an idempotency key and a signature check, so duplicate webhooks or retries can never post a payment twice.

Which payment providers does Sika support?

Mobile-money networks directly, plus card and bank-transfer rails through Paystack (primary SaaS billing and MoMo) and ExpressPay, with the provider selectable per deployment. SMS and WhatsApp go through Twilio.
