Frequently Asked Questions

What is Kawallet?

Kawallet is a mobile application which enables students in boarding schools to receive and send money without possession of a mobile phone. All a student needs to have is the Kawallet keyholder which has a unique QR code for accessing his/her account.

What if I lose my Key holder, wont I lose my money?

In case you lose your key holder, your account cannot be accessed by anyone without knowing your PIN and so your money will remain safe. On this note, always ensure to keep your PIN a secret from other people.

How fast can my key holder be replaced incase it has been stolen?

There will always be new key holders in school with our Kawallet agents. When you lose your Keyholder, you simply report to the agent, purchase a new one and then the agent will help you with the replacement process so that you can access your old account with this new key holder. So, the replacement will be done as soon as you report the issue.

How much do you charge? Don’t I incur more while making transactions with Kawallet than if I used a teacher’s phone to receive mobile money from my parents?

When your parent is sending money to you via Kawallet application, they will incur the normal mobile money charges depending on their subscription company. As a student when you are using Kawallet to either withdraw, send money or make other transactions, you will incur only a small charge (much less than normal mobile money) on every transaction you make. You can check out our charges chart in the pricing section for more information.

What if the Kawallet Agent accesses my account?

Every account is protected on three levels, your unique QR code, your account number and your secret PIN. It is your responsibility as a student to always keep your PIN secret from anyone apart from you, so that even in the situation when you misplace your keyholder, nobody can access your account without the PIN. This will protect your account from fellow students and from Kawallet agents alike.

What if my parent has no smart phone, how will they send me money in school?

Kawallet being a mobile application, its important that for the parents to use it conveniently, they should have a smart phone. However, we also have Kawallet agents outside of schools (supermarkets, mobile money agents, etc.) who can assist your parents to send money directly to your account.

What happens when we leave school and I still have money on my Kawallet account, can I still access the money?

Yes, you can access your Kawallet account even when you are outside school and even use it to make other transactions. Kawallet has agents even outside of schools who can always help you access your money even outside of school.

Can I use Kawallet as a savings platform?

Yes, you can use Kawallet as a savings plan in and out of school. As long as your money is on your account, it is perfectly safe and if you want to save it, that is also fine.

Can a student send money to a fellow student?

Yes, a student can send money to another student. When you take a look at the application, you will see an option for “STUDENT EXCHANGE”. Under this option, you can send money to another student as long as they also have a Kawallet account and you know their account number.

The importance of saving money and how you can do it.

Sylvia Imanirakiza Aug 26, 2020 Medium

Most of us have been advised on saving money either by our parents, friends, mentors and advisors etc. However, we as millennials and generation Z live through experiences. This can be seen through our love for music, fashion and thus prefer to design our budgets and savings so that we do not miss out on any experience. This causes us not to put as much importance to saving.
