The everyday pain of managing rentals in Africa — solved.
Tenants, maintenance, payments, communication — Safoa pulls every moving part of your rental business into one place, so you spend less time chasing and more time growing.
Features built for the way Africa rents.
Built ground-up for African rental markets — mobile-money first, multi-currency by design, not a North American template with a local symbol bolted on.
Mobile-money rent collection
Accept payments on every major mobile-money network across Africa — M-Pesa, MTN MoMo, Airtel Money, Orange Money and more. Safoa auto-matches, posts receipts, and reconciles to your bank.
WhatsApp integration
A WhatsApp AI Assistant answers tenants from their lease in seconds and escalates to you only when it can't — plus rent reminders and payment confirmations on the app tenants already use.
Documents & reports
Rent rolls, owner statements and arrears reports export clean as PDF or CSV. AI document generation is live too — tenancy agreements, demand letters, receipts and references, drafted in minutes.
Bulk SMS broadcasts
Reach every tenant — or a segment like overdue accounts or expiring leases — with one message, over the channel everyone can receive.
Maintenance tracker
Photo-first reports from tenants. Triage by urgency. Dispatch your plumber, electrician or carpenter and keep the receipts.
Multi-property & multi-owner
Run multi-property portfolios with multi-owner reporting — built for property managers. Add managers, caretakers and accountants with per-role, per-property permissions.
Start managing your African rentals in four steps.
Four small steps between you and your first month of effortless rent collection.
Sign up
No card. You'll land on a fully-loaded demo property to play with before you touch real data.
Add your property
Property name, address, number of units. We pre-create the units — rename them to match your block.
Invite tenants
SMS invite goes out with a one-tap link. They set a PIN and that's it.
Get paid
Tenants pay to your mobile-money or bank account with a Safoa reference. Payments post automatically. Receipts go out.
Why landlords across Africa switch to Safoa.
I used to spend Saturday mornings calling tenants. Now I open Safoa with my coffee, see who paid, and that's it. The mobile-money reconciliation alone is worth the subscription.
My accountant used to charge me extra at the end of the year because of how messy my records were. This year he gave me a discount.
The WhatsApp thing is what sold me. Tenants stopped calling me at 9pm asking what their balance is. The assistant just tells them.
Safoa vs. notebooks and imported software.
Most property software comes from North America or Europe. It can't take MoMo, doesn't understand a 2-year advance, and charges in dollars. We do — because we're built here.
Plans for property managers at every stage.
Start free with Solo and scale to Agency. Billed annually in USD, with no per-tenant overage.
