Is Your Duka Removing Money from Your Pocket?
Running a biashara in Tanzania is hard. Manual books and dishonest staff make it harder. Sound familiar?
Stock "Evaporation"
Items disappear from shelves. Staff say "Sijui imeenda wapi". You lose money daily.
Manual Receipts
Writing receipts by hand. TRA fines waiting to happen. Customers waiting in long queues.
EFD Machine Issues
Machine jams, paper runs out, or internet cuts. You can't sell until it's fixed.
The Tawala Solution
Every sale recorded. VFD receipts instant. Works offline. Full control from your phone.
Sell Faster. Queue Less.

Wafanyabiashara Wenzako Wanasemaje?
See why Tanzanian retailers are switching to Tawala.
Before Tawala, I was losing about 500,000 TSh every month to mystery stock disappearances. Now I can check my shop's sales from my phone while I am at home.
The best thing is the TRA integration. We used to struggle with the EFD machine jamming. Now the receipt prints instantly with our logo on it. TRA are happy, we are happy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an EFD machine if I use Tawala?
No! Tawala is a Virtual Fiscal Device (VFD). This means our software talks directly to TRA servers. You just need a computer and a normal printer. We help you get your VFD certificate.
Does it support barcode scanners?
Yes, Tawala works with any standard USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner. Just plug it in and start selling.
Can I manage multiple shops?
Yes! You can see all your branches (e.g. Kariakoo and Posta) on one dashboard. You can also transfer stock between branches easily.
