Software Development in Turkana: questions
Ask usSoftware Developers in Turkana: common questions
Do you develop software for organisations in Turkana?
Yes. We build custom software for businesses and organisations across Turkana, including Lodwar, Kakuma, Lokichoggio and Lokichar. Discovery, design and delivery are mostly remote, and we travel to Lodwar for workshops, user training or go-live support when needed.
How much does custom software cost?
Cost depends on the number of users, features and integrations. We start with a short discovery phase, then give a fixed-scope quote for a first release so you can launch early and add features over time.
Can the system work with M-Pesa?
Yes. We integrate M-Pesa for payments, payouts and automatic reconciliation, as well as SMS, email, accounting tools and other services your team already uses.
Will our staff in Lodwar be trained?
Yes. Every system includes user training, written guides and a support period after launch. Training can be online or in person in Lodwar when the project needs it.
