ZenoPay for Developers vs. Businesses: What You Need to Know

ZenoPay makes it easy to collect Mobile Money payments in Tanzania through powerful APIs. Whether you’re a developer testing integrations or a business running live transactions, here’s what you need to know about our accounts and fees.


👨‍💻 Developer Accounts: Test Before You Go Live

If you’re a developer, a Developer Account is your starting point.

  • It works like a sandbox where you can test integrations with Airtel Money, Tigo Pesa, M-Pesa, and Halopesa.
  • You can simulate collections and make sure your code works as expected.
  • No business registration or KYC is needed at this stage.

👉 But remember:

  • Developer Accounts are for testing only.
  • Once you’re ready to collect real money from customers, you’ll need to upgrade to a Business Account.

💡 For Monetized Integrations
If you build solutions (plugins, apps, or tools) on top of ZenoPay and earn revenue, ZenoPay takes a 30% commission on what you make.
