How it works
Save, lend and hold money — automatically.
Four ways to use your mobile money: GoalGrow for saving, GoalCollect for lending to friends, and GoalLock for holding money until both sides agree, and Circles for saving and lending as a group. Every payment lifts a tile on the picture.
GoalGrow
Save automatically and watch your goal appear.
- 1
Upload the picture of your goal
A laptop, land, school fees, a trip — its picture starts hidden under a grid of tiles.
- 2
Choose your amount and rhythm
Pick how much moves from your mobile money wallet — daily, weekly or monthly. Each tile is one debit.
- 3
Approve once on your phone
Confirm the prompt with your PIN and the debits run automatically. Pause or cancel whenever you need to.
- 4
Watch the picture appear
Every successful debit lifts a tile. When the last tile lifts, your goal is funded.
GoalCollect
Lend to a friend and get paid back automatically.
- 1
Enter your friend's details
Add the borrower's name, phone number and network, the amount, and how many instalments — daily, weekly or monthly.
- 2
Fund the loan from your wallet
Approve the prompt to send the loan amount (plus a small fee). The money is held safely until the borrower agrees.
- 3
Borrower approves repayment
Your friend gets a text and a prompt for a GHS 0.50 processing fee. Approving it sets up automatic repayments on the agreed dates.
- 4
Loan is sent, repayments run
Once repayment is set, the loan goes to your friend's wallet and both of you get a text. Each repayment lifts a tile until it's fully paid.
If the borrower never approves, cancel the loan for a refund of the amount you lent. You can also forgive a debt at any time.
GoalLock
Hold money safely until both sides agree.
- 1
Set the deal
Add the other person's phone number (or pay back to yourself), the amount and optional terms.
- 2
Both agree, then the payer funds it
Nothing is taken until both people accept. The money is then held, not with either side.
- 3
Release or refund together
Both confirm with their PIN to release the money to the receiver or refund the payer.
Circles
Build a pot together, lend at agreed rate, auto-debit repays the loan.
- 1
Start or join a circle
Choose Motivation (save side by side), Shared (one pot towards a joint target) or Investment (a pot that lends to members). Invite people with a link; everyone gets a message when someone joins.
- 2
Fund the pot
Members pay into the circle pot from their mobile money wallet. You can keep contributing even after the target is reached. Members are listed by how much they have put in.
- 3
Borrow and vote (Investment circles)
A member taps Borrow from pot. Only members who have funded the pot can vote. Once approved, the loan goes to the borrower's wallet and repayment is taken automatically on the agreed date.
- 4
Repay, leave or disband
Borrowers can pay off early in full, interest included. A member without an open loan can leave an Investment circle with their contribution plus their share of interest from fully repaid loans, approved with their MG PIN.
Circle boards show progress, tiles and streaks, never other members' cedi amounts. Every circle payout needs the member's MG PIN.
Start with a small weekly amount.
Free to create. You approve every mandate on your own phone.
