Reduce loan defaults with three-stage reminders

Schedule SMS reminders 7 days before, on the due date, and the day after a missed payment. Members repay before they're flagged, and your loan officers focus on the cases that actually need attention.

  • Upload a CSV of loans due this week — Wesendall schedules the full sequence in one pass.

  • Merge tags for amount, member name and due date so each message feels personal.

  • See per-member delivery + reply status so loan officers know who to call.

  • Charge only for delivered SMS — refunds on failed sends.

Instant OTPs for deposits, withdrawals and PIN resets

Integrate the SMS API with your core banking system to send one-time codes that confirm member transactions in under five seconds on MTN and Airtel.

  • REST API with HTTP Basic Auth, JSON request bodies.

  • Median delivery latency 3-5 seconds on MTN, 4-7 on Airtel.

  • Use Wallet ID-scoped keys so each branch or product can have its own credentials.

  • Webhook delivery reports for full audit trails.

AGM notices, dividend confirmations and compliance updates

When you need to reach every member at once — for an AGM invitation, dividend confirmation, or BoU compliance update — SMS is the only channel that's already in every member's pocket.

  • Save the full Members group and reuse for every annual cycle.

  • Send dividend confirmations with the exact amount via merge tags.

  • Notify members of new policy changes ahead of formal letters.

  • Built-in opt-out keeps you UCC and Data Protection Act 2019 aligned.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can we cut Portfolio at Risk with SMS reminders?

Yes. SACCOs that automate three-stage reminders (7 days before, day-of, day-after) typically see 15-30% improvement in on-time repayment. Wesendall lets you schedule the full sequence from a CSV of due loans.

Do you support OTPs for member deposits and withdrawals?

Yes — the SMS API delivers OTPs to MTN and Airtel within seconds. See our SMS API for developers page for a full integration walkthrough.

Are you compliant with the Uganda Data Protection and Privacy Act 2019?

We process member contact data under instruction from your SACCO as a processor. We don't share data, host all traffic in regions with adequacy decisions, and provide opt-out + audit trail tooling. Talk to us for a Data Processing Agreement.

Can we send AGM notices and dividend confirmations?

Yes — these are core SACCO use cases. Save a 'Members' group and reuse it for the AGM notice, dividend confirmation, and any follow-up communications.

How does pricing work?

UGX 35 per SMS standard, UGX 32 in volume. Top up the wallet with Mobile Money — no monthly fees, no minimums. Most SACCOs spend less than UGX 100,000/month on member messaging.
