Citytaps Smart Pay-As-You-Go Project in Malindi, Kenya

The pilot project CTSuite provides an innovative smart water meter and pay-per-use and an on-demand payment software platform to urban dwellers in Malindi, Kenya. CTSuite guarantees upfront payment in a way that subscribers can sustainably afford (any amount, any time, with any phone). Many of Malindi’s inhabitants live without access to running water running water in their homes and pay up to 3 to 7 times more for alternative water sources while not having consistent or disposable incomes. By switching to MAWASCO’s PAYGO solution, subscribers gain time, money, and experience less stress. CityTaps and Malindi Water and Sewerage Company (MAWASCO) piloted CTSuite in 2020, which is fully funded by the FASEP, French General Directorate of the Treasury.
