Digital platform modernising Zimbabwe's mukando savings groups — 3rd Place, Econet E-novate Hackathon 2025.
# HiveFund — Digital Mukando Platform
A digital platform modernising the mukando (informal rotating savings club) system practised across Zimbabwe. 3rd Place — Econet E-novate Hackathon 2025.
## Overview
Traditional mukando groups rely on cash and manual record-keeping, which creates risk of loss, disputes, and poor transparency. HiveFund digitises the entire process so savings groups can manage contributions and payouts with full visibility.
## Features
- Member contribution tracking
- Payout scheduling and coordination
- Digital record of group finances (replacing cash-based tracking)
- Built for group/team financial coordination at scale
## Results
Placed 3rd overall (out of all teams) at the Econet E-novate Hackathon 2025, representing Midlands State University as part of a 5-person team.
