Lipa Na Mpesa Buy Goods (M-Pesa Business Till)

The M-PESA Business till is an enhancement of the existing Lipa Na M-PESA till that enables business owners to receive payments on the till and use the money collected to make other transactions directly from the till. Unlike a regular M-Pesa account, the Business Till is specifically designed for commercial operations, providing a dedicated business wallet that keeps your personal and business finances completely separate.
