All the best

Watu wanaongea serious issues some think is a joke. No wonder kenya itabaki kuwa tu hivyo. hate such comments!!

Talk to @Hunter Xp

Jaribu africastalking utasaidika.

You need
1.Editor probably NetBeans
2.Application server - jboss or tomcat,I’d go for the latter
3.Dedicated server(depending on app usage)
4. Simulator - postman will do
5. USSD Gateway -service provider may or may not provide

going through 3rd party guys is usually troublesome

boss #1 to #4 niko sorted, shida iyo ussd gateway sasa, not much available info online

AfricasTalking are professionals in this business and trust me you will like their service.

There is one called Ozeki. Easy and straight forward to setup. Not free though.

Kama ni GW basi talk to Netfors,GW yao iko sawa

check africastalking utapata shared code 12355# kama hiyo for testing

buda zile charges nimeona site yao wah, sema wazimu…145k setup n 125k monthly charges for a dedicated prepaid…that’s shocking, hakuna cheaper options?

kumbe mlikua mmelala mapema, was wondering where the techies are…lemmi chambua them

netfors sijawaskia but bora wakona dedicated sina shida…can a financial institution really be safe using izo shared?

if you were using equity for example alafu wakupatie iyo code ukosee namba moja upate badala ya 12355# umebonyeza 1235# ikupeleke family bank instead, si utapata doubts about it? that’s why i think dedicated is the best option

GW ni wewe unairun si hao,so it’s dedicated Juu utapatiwa license.They provide the core app and you do the installation on your server

Hapo kwa shared I think it’s local companies who do that

hii Ni ya testing…for dedicated lazima ubuy
