About Sentra

Software that works the way Africa works

Built in Nairobi, for businesses across the continent.

Our story

We started with a simple frustration

Running a business across Africa meant stitching together mobile money, spreadsheets and a dozen disconnected apps. We knew there had to be a better way — so in 2021 we built it.

Today Sentra powers 4,000+ businesses in 14 countries, and we’re just getting started.

What we believe

Built for Africa

Offline-friendly, mobile-money-first, low-bandwidth ready. We design for real conditions, not Silicon Valley ones.

Simplicity wins

Powerful doesn’t have to mean complicated. If a shop owner can’t use it in five minutes, we redesign it.

Earned trust

We handle people’s money and data. Security, transparency and reliability are non-negotiable.
