Four things about doing business in Kenya — and what the software does about each.
How NodePoint handles each East African market — Kenya beside Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Rwanda.
M-Pesa is the counter
STK push from the checkout, or the confirmation code keyed in — the payment attaches to its sale automatically. Daily M-Pesa totals reconcile against your statement in minutes.
Kenya Power outages are routine
Sales, check-ins and kitchen tickets keep recording on the device through an outage and sync the moment power and data return. Nothing queued is lost.
KRA wants the VAT right
VAT is separated on every transaction and reported in one place, and every sale, bill and invoice files with KRA eTIMS through DigiTax as it happens — the fiscal block prints on the paper.
Priced and billed in shillings
Everything inside the app runs in KES, and your subscription is billed in KES too. Unlimited staff and branches on one licence.
Retail POS
Barcode checkout for dukas, supermarkets, pharmacies and hardware stores. M-Pesa on every sale, stock per branch, offline through the blackout.

Restaurant POS
Waiters order on a phone, the kitchen sees it the same second, the bill splits three ways and M-Pesa settles it — Nairobi to Nanyuki.

Nairobi to upcountry, in Kenya shillings.
Kenya is where NodePoint was built, and it shows in the details: the checkout pushes an STK prompt to the customer's phone and attaches the M-Pesa confirmation to the sale by itself — or the cashier keys in the code from the SMS when the customer paid to the till number. Either way, the evening reconciliation is one number.
Power and data are not guaranteed in Nairobi, let alone in Kitale or Kilifi. Every sale writes to the device first and syncs when the line returns, so a Kenya Power cut is an inconvenience, not a closed shop.
VAT is split out on every sale and invoice from day one, and each one files with KRA eTIMS through DigiTax, a KRA-approved eTIMS integrator, as it settles — the receipt your customer takes away carries KRA's receipt number, signature and QR code. Activation is a setting, not a migration.
Questions from Kenyan businesses
Does the M-Pesa integration work with my till number or paybill?
Yes. Configure your Daraja credentials once and the checkout pushes an STK prompt to the customer's phone; the confirmation attaches to the sale. Without Daraja, the cashier keys in the confirmation code from the customer's SMS and the sale is matched the same way.
What happens to sales made during a power cut?
They are saved on the device the moment they are rung up and sync automatically when power and data return — with the same receipt numbers, in sequence. Nothing is lost and nothing is duplicated.
Is NodePoint KRA eTIMS compliant?
Yes. NodePoint files with KRA eTIMS through DigiTax, a KRA-approved eTIMS integrator. Every sale, restaurant bill, hotel folio and invoice is submitted as it settles, the receipt carries KRA's receipt number, signature and QR code, and voids and refunds file credit notes. Enter your KRA PIN and branch in Settings, request activation, and fiscalised receipts switch on.
Does it run Kenyan payroll?
Yes — PAYE, NSSF and SHIF deductions are built in, with payslips per run. This is the one market where statutory payroll is fully supported today.
