Mobile app development company in Kenya that ships Android, iOS and M-Pesa
We build one Flutter or React Native codebase that runs on both Android and iOS, wire in M-Pesa STK Push natively, and hand you the backend, the admin dashboard and the full source. Fixed quote, milestone payments, no lock-in.
Custom quote Scoped and fixed before we start. Paid 50/25/25 across the build. You own everything we ship.
What goes into every app we build
Not a template drop. Each build is scoped to what your users in Nairobi, Mombasa and upcountry actually do, on the phones and data speeds they actually have.
One codebase, both stores
We build in Flutter or React Native so Android and iOS ship from the same code. You pay for one build, not two, and both apps stay in sync as you add features.
Native M-Pesa payments
Daraja STK Push, C2B and B2C wired directly into the app, with callbacks reconciled against your backend so every transaction is logged, not guessed. We built Moyo Pay on the same double-entry logic.
Backend and admin dashboard
Your app needs somewhere to store data and someone to run it. We ship the API, database and a web dashboard so your team manages users, orders and payments without calling us.
Built for mid-range Android
We test on the phones your users hold, not just flagships. Screens load on slow data, work offline where they can, and keep the app light so it installs and runs on 2GB devices.
Push, auth and accounts
Phone-number and email sign-in, OTP, push notifications and role-based access, so you can reach users, keep accounts secure and control who sees what from day one.
Store submission and handover
We publish to Google Play and the App Store under your developer accounts, then hand over the code, the backend and the documentation. It is your product, fully.
Why Kenyan teams build with GISS
Most app shops quote in vague ranges and keep the code. We fix the price to a written scope, take payment in three milestones, and hand you everything at the end.
- Fixed quote before we start. We scope the features, agree the price in writing, and it does not move unless you change the scope.
- 50/25/25 payment plan. 50% to begin, 25% at review, 25% at completion. Your money tracks real progress.
- M-Pesa done properly. Live Daraja integration with reconciled callbacks, tested against real transactions, not a sandbox demo.
- You own everything. Source code, backend, database and store listings are transferred to you. No monthly ransom to keep your own app.
- Built and supported from Kampala. One East African team on your timezone over WhatsApp, no offshore handoffs or overnight silence.
Apps and platforms we have actually shipped
We do not borrow other people's screenshots. These are real GISS builds you can see, and the same engineering carries into your app.
Mobile app questions Kenyan founders ask
It is a custom quote, because a delivery app and a savings app are not the same job. We scope your features, give you one fixed price in writing before any work starts, and it holds unless you change the scope. Most business websites start from KES 35,000, but apps with M-Pesa, a backend and dashboards are quoted to spec.
A focused first version is usually 6 to 12 weeks depending on features, integrations and how fast we get feedback and content. We agree the timeline against the milestones up front so you always know what ships when.
Every project runs on 50/25/25: 50% to start, 25% at the review milestone when you see the app working, and 25% at completion and handover. You are never paying for work you have not seen.
Yes, completely. At handover we transfer the full source code, the backend, the database and the Play Store and App Store listings to your accounts. You are never locked into paying us to keep your own product running.
Yes. We integrate Safaricom Daraja for M-Pesa STK Push, C2B and B2C directly in the app, with callbacks reconciled in your backend. We can also add card and cross-border rails if you take payments outside Kenya.
