Built for Kenyan contractors

Get paid the day you finish.

Stop chasing diaspora clients across time zones. Funds are locked in escrow before you lift a tool — and released the moment a milestone is approved.

  • ✕ Clients ghosting after the slab

FAQ

Contractor questions

Does it cost anything to join?

No. Creating a contractor profile is free. We only take a small platform fee on each milestone payout — and nothing if you don't get paid.

How fast do I actually get the money?

Funds land in your DiasporaBuild wallet the second the homeowner taps approve. Withdraw to M-Pesa or your bank any time.

What if the homeowner refuses to approve fair work?

Every photo, message, and progress request is timestamped and logged. Disputes go to our review team with full evidence on both sides.

Can I bring my own homeowner clients?

Yes. Send them an invite link — they set up the project, fund escrow, and add you as the contractor.

Build the work. Skip the chase.
