Why Qonta

Accounting software built for how Rwanda does business.

QuickBooks, Xero and Odoo were made for other countries. Qonta is made in Kigali for companies paid in francs and Mobile Money, filing with RRA, and run by teams that work on WhatsApp.

Five reasons

What you get with Qonta that you do not get elsewhere.

Each reason comes with the part of Qonta that delivers it.

01

Made for Rwanda's rules

Invoices go to RRA's EBM system as they are made, for businesses registered for it. Prices, taxes and reports are in Rwandan francs, and payments arrive by MTN MoMo, Airtel Money or bank.

02

Your team records where they already work

A sale, an expense or a photo of a receipt is sent on WhatsApp. Qonta records it and shows what it saved, with Undo, and asks when something is unclear. The office works on the web. Nobody types the same thing twice.

One price for the whole team
