Social Media Based Sacco

Oracom Group’s Social Media-Based SACCO is a modern digital savings and credit cooperative that leverages the power of social networking to promote financial inclusion, trust, and collaboration among members. Built within an interactive online community, the SACCO allows users to join, save, borrow, and invest collectively through secure digital tools integrated with mobile money and online banking. Members can track their contributions, loan status, and dividends in real time, while also engaging in financial education, peer discussions, and business networking. By combining the community-driven strength of social media with cooperative finance, Oracom empowers individuals especially youth and creatives to achieve their economic goals in a connected, supportive environment.

1. Digital Savings Plans

Members can contribute to individual or group savings plans directly through mobile money or linked digital wallets. The SACCO offers flexible saving options daily, weekly, or monthly and tracks each member’s progress via their online profile. With automated reminders and easy-to-use dashboards, members are encouraged to build a consistent saving culture in a social, supportive environment.

2. Online Loan Access & Management

Through the platform, members can apply for short-term and long-term loans without the need for lengthy paperwork. Loan eligibility, approvals, disbursements, and repayments are all managed digitally, with transparency and real-time notifications. Members can also build credit scores based on participation and repayment history, making it easier to access larger loans over time.

3. Peer Groups & Social Investment Circles

The SACCO integrates social features like interest-based groups, investment circles (chamas), and digital saccos within the community. Members can join or create small peer networks to pool resources, share financial goals, or invest in joint ventures enhancing trust, collaboration, and collective economic growth through community-driven financial models.

4. Financial Education & Mentorship

To support smart money decisions, the SACCO provides digital financial literacy programs, webinars, and mentorship sessions on topics such as budgeting, saving, borrowing, and entrepreneurship. Content is shared within the social platform, encouraging interactive learning and peer-to-peer advice that empowers members to take control of their finances.

5. Member Recognition & Incentive Programs

To boost engagement, the SACCO features gamified incentives like saving streak badges, referral rewards, and recognition for top savers or timely loan repayers. Members can view leaderboards and achievements within the platform, making saving and financial discipline a fun, community-supported experience that fosters accountability and participation.
