How it works

From your first invoice to discounted financing

Finvoice turns your everyday invoicing into a verified track record — one that unlocks working capital from Tanzania's leading banks and financial institutions.

The journey

Four steps, one growing reputation

Every invoice you send and settle on Finvoice does double duty: it moves money today and builds your business's name for tomorrow.

1
Step 1

Create and send your invoice

Build a professional invoice in minutes — line items, VAT, payment terms and your branding, all in Tanzanian shillings. Send it to any business in Tanzania, whether they use Finvoice or not.

  • Unlimited invoices and counterparties, free forever
  • Delivered instantly by email and SMS
  • Track when your invoice is viewed and opened
2
Step 2

Your buyer acknowledges and pays

The receiving business reviews the invoice and acknowledges it with one click — a verified confirmation that the debt is real. When payment lands, both sides mark it settled on the record.

  • One-click acknowledgment creates a verified record
  • Automatic reminders before the due date
  • Disputes are raised early, not after months of silence

Step 3

Your Trust Score grows

Every acknowledged invoice and on-time settlement adds to your Trust Score — a verified reputation your business owns. It's the credit history most Tanzanian businesses have never been able to prove.

  • Built from real trading activity, not paperwork
  • Grows with every counterparty you trade with
  • Yours to keep — it belongs to your business

Step 4

Unlock discounted financing

With a strong Trust Score, you can turn an acknowledged invoice into cash today. See a transparent discount fee upfront, accept, and receive funds — typically within 48 hours — arranged through Tanzania's leading banks and financial institutions.

  • Rates from 2–4%, improving with your Trust Score
  • Fee shown before you commit — no surprises
  • Funds paid to your bank or mobile money account

FAQ

Questions, answered

Everything businesses ask us before sending their first invoice.

Does it cost anything to send or receive invoices?
Sending and receiving invoices is free forever — unlimited invoices, unlimited counterparties, Trust Score included. Finvoice charges a flat 3% on amounts collected through invoice payment pages, and a transparent discount fee only if you choose to finance an invoice.
What if my customer isn't on Finvoice yet?
Send the invoice anyway. They'll receive it by email or SMS and can view and acknowledge it in seconds — then create their own free account to manage payables and build their own reputation.
What exactly is the Trust Score?
It's a verified measure of how your business trades: invoices acknowledged, settlements made on time, and the depth of your trading history. It's built from real activity on Finvoice — not self-reported paperwork — and it belongs to your business.
How do I qualify for financing?
Keep trading. As your acknowledged invoices and on-time settlements accumulate, your Trust Score grows. Once your score qualifies, eligible invoices show a financing option with your personal rate — no application forms, no collateral paperwork.
Who actually provides the financing?
Financing is arranged through Tanzania's leading banks and financial institutions. Everything happens inside Finvoice — you see one transparent fee, accept it, and receive your funds. You never negotiate with a bank or fill in separate paperwork.
How quickly do I receive the money?
Typically within 48 hours of accepting the offer. Funds are paid directly to your registered bank account or mobile money wallet.
Is my business data safe?
Yes. Your invoices and trading data are encrypted and never sold. Your Trust Score is only shared where it works for you — with counterparties you invoice and, when you request financing, as part of your offer.
