What is MOMO LENS?
MOMO LENS is a Smart Till—an all-in-one business management app for African SMEs. It runs on your phone, works offline, and ties together the things that usually live in separate spreadsheets or notebooks: sales, mobile money, inventory, expenses, and simple reporting.
- Record sales (cash and mobile money) from one place
- Reconcile MTN MoMo, Airtel Money, Zamtel Kwacha, and others
- Track stock and get low-stock alerts
- Log expenses and see where money goes
- Generate basic reports for your own use or for your accountant
Problems we solve
Mobile money vs till mismatch
Match what’s in your till with what’s in your mobile money account. Reduce mix-ups and missing cash.
Inventory chaos
Know what you have, what you sold, and when to reorder—without losing track when the network drops.
Unreliable internet
App works offline. Sales and stock updates sync when you’re back online so business doesn’t stop.
No clear picture of the business
See daily and periodic sales, expenses, and simple profit views so you can make decisions with numbers.
Scattered records
One place for sales, expenses, and basic docs. Easier for you and for tax or audit when needed.
Too many apps or paper
Replace multiple tools and paper books with a single app that’s built for small business in Africa.
