About FX Nairobi
Helping Kenya's forex bureaus run smarter, stay compliant, and grow profitably.
Who We Are
FX Nairobi is a forex bureau management SaaS platform built and operated by SomICT, a technology company based in Nairobi, Kenya. We build software that helps financial businesses operate efficiently, stay compliant, and scale with confidence.
We are a team of software engineers, product designers, and finance professionals who understand the unique challenges faced by forex bureaus in Kenya — from counter-level transaction processing to CBK compliance and multi-branch management.
Why We Built FX Nairobi
Most forex bureaus in Kenya still rely on manual processes — paper ledgers, Excel spreadsheets, and memory. This creates risk: compliance gaps, lost transaction records, difficulty seeing daily profit, and staff accountability issues.
FX Nairobi was built from the ground up to solve these problems. We designed the platform specifically for how Kenyan forex bureaus actually operate — counter-first, mobile-ready, KES-native, and CBK-aware.
Our Mission
To give every licensed forex bureau in Kenya — whether a single counter in Eastleigh or a multi-branch group in Nairobi CBD — access to professional-grade management tools that were previously only available to large banks and financial institutions.
What Makes Us Different
- Built for Kenya: KES-first, supports ETB and cross-currency pairs commonly traded in Nairobi. Timezone and locale defaults are set for Kenya.
- CBK Compliance Built-In: Automatic KYC capture for transactions above the CBK threshold. Exportable compliance reports ready for inspection.
- Counter-First Design: The interface is optimised for speed at the counter — large inputs, keyboard-friendly, instant receipts, works on mobile.
- Real Profitability Visibility: Spread profit per transaction, daily P&L summaries, expense tracking, and portfolio valuation — all in real time.
- Offline-Capable PWA: Works on any device, including when connectivity is intermittent. Install it directly from the browser.
