I hate queueing to show the bursar a printout of an Mpesa sms to prove that I paid school fees! There should be a way of automating that. They should issue me an electronic receipt and clearance once my money hits their bank account.

Which areas of your daily life are unnecessarily manual?

Solution is already , it's only we're slow to adopt or most institutions are not aware of it . You should sell to them reconciliation tools that has automated notifications/ receipts.
I'm a greenhorn in that area. I would like to know about the existing solutions. Please share (hata kama ni inbox) what you know.

Do you have pet peeves in lack automation or even apps?

Don't worry young innovative youngsters are keen in identifying the ordinary person day to day needs
Like buying and automatically crediting token in your electricity meter from any where

I feel we're too slow to adopt to change, we're yet to embrace digital life locally. Like If we can have more mats and people going swvl way or other versions of swvl, it will transform our rowdy culture . Like recently I was looking for a wholesale shop, I wished we had a local business locator app which could be more accurate than Google.

Easy Coach have a system that once money is paid into it via mobile money,a receipt is generated automatically. Both electronic and physical.

You should tell your school to explore this...

That's a good one. What if it's cash, or via equity, or old fashioned chaque?

The key event is that the money has arrived at the school.
 
They exist. Some universities will actually automatically update the student portal immediately a transaction has been made against a student registration number. Nobody will even ask you for a reveipt. Only issue this softwares are damn expensive and most not even having payment plans. A great world of software solutions in the market but cost of implimentation is definitely prohibitive.
