lipwa.co - Bypass corporate bureaucracy. Unlock your cash flow

by
71% of SMEs fail because of bad cash flow, not bad products. In a market where corporate bureaucracy often forces a 45-day wait on invoices, local businesses are left suffocating. Lipwa is the procurement augmenting platform built to shatter this cycle. We empower businesses to bypass traditional payment delays by transforming unstructured WhatsApp chats, fragmented emails, and offline sales into instant, auditable digital payments. Adding AI enabled workflows.

I’m the founder of Lipwa, and I’m thrilled to share what we’ve been building. After spending time working on fintech and high-throughput payment systems, I noticed a heartbreaking pattern: incredible SMEs in Africa were failing not because they lacked customers, but because they were suffocating under 45-day corporate payment cycles. We built Lipwa to be the "liquidity shortcut." We’ve integrated directly with local rails like M-PESA and platforms like Shopify coming soon to turn those "Is the payment ready?" WhatsApp chats into instant, auditable digital payments. We’re currently pre-revenue but already have a waitlist of 100+ businesses ready to reclaim their cash flow, and I’d love to hear your thoughts on: Which other "unstructured" platforms (besides WhatsApp) are most critical for B2B trade? For those in the fintech space—what’s the biggest hurdle you’ve seen in digitizing offline supply chains? I'll be here all day to answer questions. Let's fix the cash flow gap together!
