CHANGISHA APP
Features

Everything you need to raise money — in one place.

From starting a campaign to receiving the money: mobile money giving, verification that builds trust, organisation pages, share pictures, WhatsApp updates and clear reports.

For donors

Giving is simple, safe and transparent — no account needed.

Pay with mobile money

M-Pesa, Mixx by Yas, Airtel Money and HaloPesa. You get a PIN prompt on your phone and stay on our own branded page.

Clear fees before you pay

You see your gift, the service fee and the total before paying. The campaign receives your full gift.

Give anonymously

Tick "Hide my name" — you’ll appear publicly as "Donor". You can also leave a message of support.

Thank-you receipt

You get a thank-you message by WhatsApp or SMS with your transaction reference.

Progress updates

When a campaign you supported reaches 25%, 50%, 75% or its goal, you’re told so you can share again.

Report a suspicious campaign

A "Report this campaign" button on every campaign. We hold payouts and investigate.

For campaign owners

Everything you need to raise, share and receive money.

Start in minutes

Your story, a real photo, a goal and a deadline. Raise for yourself or on behalf of someone else.

Share everywhere

WhatsApp, Facebook, X, Telegram, SMS or copy the link. Every shared link shows the campaign picture and its progress.

Milestone pictures with QR

At 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% you get a square picture ready for WhatsApp Status and Instagram, with a QR code to donate.

Donations dashboard

Live donations, the fees on every transaction, what you receive and your available balance.

An alert for every gift

You’re notified of every donation and every milestone reached.

Receive the money

Mobile money or bank, to the reviewed account. Withdrawal fee TZS 1,500, minimum TZS 10,000.

For NGOs & organisations

NGOs, CBOs, faith organisations, foundations and schools.

Your own page

A link you choose (changisha.co.tz/o/your-name), logo, banner, story and contacts. If you change the link, the old one keeps working.

Ongoing fund

A "Donate" button with no end date for the organisation’s day-to-day work.

Many project campaigns

Start as many campaigns as you like under the organisation’s name — no local government letter needed.

Verified badge

Once we check the registration, TIN and leadership letter, the organisation and its campaigns get the blue verified badge.

Organisation directory

Verified organisations appear in a public directory where donors can search by type and region.

Trust and safety

We check before money goes out — not after.

Identity verification

Phone by SMS, NIDA, an ID photo and a selfie holding the ID.

Real documents and photos

Hospital or school letters, cost estimates, a photo of the real situation and a local government letter — all reviewed by an admin.

Controlled payouts

Money only goes to the reviewed account, in tranches of up to TZS 1,000,000, and the next tranche needs spending receipts.

Public transparency

Every campaign shows how much was raised and how much has been paid out to the beneficiary.

Data protection

Identity documents are stored privately under the Personal Data Protection Act (2022). Admins sign in with two-step verification.

Payments and fees

Few, transparent fees.

Service fee

5% platform fee plus the payment network cost — paid by the donor on top, so the campaign receives everything.

Optional tip

Donors can add a tip to support the platform — never required.

Free to start

No fee to open an account, start a campaign or register an organisation.

Reports and records

Every shilling can be traced.

Branded PDF reports

Donation reports with a summary, every transaction reference and page numbers — ready for boards, funders or audits.

Excel (CSV)

Download all donation data for your own analysis.

Transaction references

Every donation has a reference that can be verified on the payment network.

Easy to use

Built for phones first.

Swahili and English

Switch language any time with the SW/EN button.

Light, dark or auto

Choose the look that suits you in your account menu.

Sign in with Google

Sign up in one click, and your Google photo is used on your account.
