Who this suits

It could work for you if

You want to join a licensed SACCO. Its website shows the joining fee, share capital and minimum monthly deposit.

Think twice if

You need a declared dividend rate, a management charge, or notice and withdrawal terms. Telepost Sacco publishes none of these.
