We build rails for the parts of life that never stop moving.
Sky Yalla Ltd is a Kenyan fintech company focused on making digital payments work for the people and sectors that keep the country running - matatus, SACCOs, supermarkets, shops and rental homes.
Our story
Sky Yalla started with a simple frustration: the places where money moves the most - matatu stages, supermarket tills and rent day - are usually the most chaotic. Cash disappears, M-Pesa messages get lost, and nobody has a clean, real-time picture of what is happening.
Instead of building yet another fancy app that needs data bundles and the latest smartphone, we chose a different path. We built around what already works for millions of Kenyans every day: USSD, Paybill and STK push.
Our products - TekeTeke, FlashPay and Capital Assets - all run on a shared wallet and payout engine. That means we can support different sectors without reinventing the wheel every time, and still keep things simple for the people using them.
Our vision
We see a future where matatu owners, SACCOs, shopkeepers and landlords all have clean, real-time views of their money without needing to become IT experts. A future where digital records match what is actually happening on the ground, and where cash-based sectors can access better financial products because their data finally makes sense.
What makes us different
- Ground-up design. We start from stages, queues and rent books - not just spreadsheets.
- USSD-first thinking. We respect the fact that not everyone has constant data or a smartphone.
- Transparent by default. Owners, SACCOs, staff and partners can all see the same source of truth.
- Partnership mindset. We work with banks, POS providers and other players instead of competing with everyone.
