How to avoid mixing personal and business M-PESA money

Mixing personal and business M-PESA money can make profit and business balances harder to understand.

Many small business owners use M-PESA for both personal and business activity. This can make it hard to know which money belongs to the business.

The cleaner approach is to record business M-PESA sales, business M-PESA expenses and business M-PESA transfers clearly. Personal withdrawals should not be confused with ordinary business expenses unless they are intentionally recorded as owner drawings or a similar business category.

Bizwazi helps by separating business M-PESA activity from Cash and Bank, making it easier to review business money.
