Empowering financial inclusion across East Africa
We're building the technology infrastructure that enables microfinance institutions to manage loans and credit sales, serving their communities better, faster, and more efficiently.
Our Mission
To democratize access to modern lending and credit sales technology for microfinance institutions across Africa, enabling them to serve more clients, reduce operational costs, and make better decisions through data-driven insights.
Our Vision
A future where every microfinance institution in Africa has access to world-class technology, enabling financial inclusion for millions of underserved individuals and small businesses across the continent.
Our Story
Prograte was born from a simple observation: microfinance institutions across East Africa were struggling with outdated, manual processes that limited their ability to serve their communities effectively.
Founded in 2024, we set out to build a platform that would bring enterprise-grade lending technology to institutions of all sizes. We started by working closely with microfinance institutions in Uganda, understanding their unique challenges, workflows, and needs.
Today, Prograte serves 15+ institutions across East Africa, processing over UGX 500M in loans and credit sales monthly. But we're just getting started. Our team is committed to continuous innovation, ensuring that our platform evolves with the needs of the institutions we serve.
We believe that technology should empower, not complicate. That's why we've built Prograte to be intuitive, reliable, and accessible—whether you're a field officer recording loan payments and credit sales on a mobile device or a manager analyzing portfolio performance from the office.
