Daily M-PESA Cash-Up Checklist
A daily cash-up helps you close the business day with confidence. It shows whether your M-PESA, cash and bank/card balances match your records.
Step 1: Record total sales
Add all sales for the day and separate them by payment method: M-PESA, cash, bank or card.
Step 2: Record expenses
Enter all expenses paid during the day, including supplier payments, transport, wages, airtime and stock purchases.
Step 3: Record transfers
If money moved from cash to M-PESA, M-PESA to bank, or bank to cash, record the transfer so your balances stay correct.
Step 4: Compare final balances
Check the actual M-PESA and cash balances against the expected balances. Differences should be reviewed before closing.
Doing this daily makes it much easier to catch problems early.
