We BuildMobile Apps.for Africa.

Pricing depends on platform and scope. A professional business website costs KES 80,000–200,000. A cross-platform mobile app (Android + iOS using Flutter) ranges from KES 350,000–900,000. A custom web application with a backend, user accounts, and M-Pesa integration typically costs KES 400,000–1,500,000. Enterprise platforms and SaaS products are quoted after a free discovery session — no hidden fees, no surprises.

M-Pesa integration is done via Safaricom's Daraja API. The most common flows are STK Push (prompts the customer to pay on their phone), Paybill (business-to-customer and C2B), and Buy Goods (Till). You need a Safaricom Business Account, sandbox credentials, and a developer to connect the API to your backend. We handle the full integration — from sandbox testing to go-live — for web apps, mobile apps, e-commerce stores, and custom platforms. We also integrate Airtel Money, Equity EazzyPay, Pesapal, and DPO.

A freelancer is cheaper upfront but carries risk: single points of failure if they go offline, limited capacity for larger work, and no formal accountability. A software agency like Tukoweb gives you a full team — developers, a designer, a QA engineer, and a project manager — with defined contracts, milestone-based delivery, and long-term support. For anything beyond a simple landing page, an agency is almost always the lower-risk, higher-quality choice. We also offer startup-friendly pricing to close the cost gap.

Yes — if your business collects, stores, or processes personal data of Kenyan residents (names, emails, phone numbers, payment details), you are required to comply with the Kenya Data Protection Act 2019 and its regulations. This applies to websites, mobile apps, CRMs, and any digital system. KDPA compliance involves a privacy policy, data processing agreements, user consent mechanisms, secure storage, and data breach notification procedures. We build KDPA-compliant systems by default and can audit your existing platform.

Yes, for the right scope. An MVP (Minimum Viable Product) with a focused set of core features — user auth, a main workflow, and basic admin — can be delivered in 6–8 weeks. The key is ruthless scope discipline: we work with you to identify the one core problem your product must solve, cut everything else, and build that first. We've launched multiple Kenyan startup MVPs within this window. After launch, we iterate based on real user feedback.

Yes. Software is never truly finished. After launch we offer three tiers of support: Basic (bug fixes and security patches, monthly retainer), Growth (new features, performance optimisation, and priority response), and Enterprise (dedicated team, SLA-backed response times, and 24/7 monitoring). We also provide a 30-day free warranty on all projects covering bugs introduced during development. Most of our clients stay with us long-term — our average client relationship is over 3 years.

Kenya has several reliable payment options depending on your customer base. M-Pesa (via Daraja API) is essential — 97% of Kenyan mobile money transactions run on it. For card payments, Pesapal and DPO Group (formerly 3G Direct Pay) are the most widely used. Equity EazzyPay covers Equity Bank customers. Flutterwave and Paystack work for pan-African coverage. For subscription businesses, iPay Kenya supports recurring billing. We recommend starting with M-Pesa STK Push + Pesapal to cover the vast majority of Kenyan consumers from day one.

Absolutely. While our core team is Nairobi-based, we serve clients across East Africa — Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Ethiopia, and beyond — and have delivered projects for international organisations working on the continent. All project management, standups, and delivery happen remotely via structured async workflows, so location is never a barrier. We're on EAT (UTC+3) which also gives us significant overlap with European business hours.
