The Simple Principle
Susu is a traditional African savings method where a group of people come together to save money collectively. It's also known as a ROSCA (Rotating Savings and Credit Association).
A simple, transparent process
Gather 3-50 trusted friends, family members, or community members. Everyone must know each other and agree on the contribution amount and schedule.
The group decides together on the contribution amount, payment schedule (daily, weekly, monthly), and payout order.
Same amount for all members
Daily, weekly, or monthly
Every member contributes the agreed amount at the scheduled time. Naa Sika tracks all contributions automatically via WhatsApp, Telegram, or USSD.
Each period, one member receives the entire pot (all contributions combined). The payout rotates through all members until everyone has received once.
Everyone contributes GHS 100, 10 members = GHS 1,000 payout each cycle

Get started with these simple steps
You must be invited by an existing member of the group, or know all the group members physically. This ensures trust and accountability.
The group administrator will provide you with a unique 6-digit group code to join.
Enter your group code in the dedicated app — the clearest way to join, see the turn order, and follow every payout.
