Before you ask

ISEP never ranks groups against each other and never sells their data. What it shows are verified facts: sector, district, membership and KYC status.

Any group already organised in the informal sector — traders, farmers, artisans, drivers, service providers and micro-SMEs. On the institution side: financial institutions, service providers, CSOs, donors, government agencies and researchers.

Onboarding is free for cooperatives and institutions. Cooperative members pay a small system fee only once their account is activated.

No. Invites and updates work over SMS and USSD, and cooperatives can register members from a paper sheet.

Only institutions that have completed verification. Personal member details stay hidden until your cooperative accepts an introduction.

Usually about three days. It is document-led: registration certificate, director’s ID, annual report, partnership brief and financials.

No. ISEP shows verified facts — sector, district, membership and KYC status — but never ranks groups against each other or sells their data.
