SO4 PassBook

A Digital PassBook System for Susu Operators, Collectors & Savings Groups

SO4PB is a Microsoft Access–based digital PassBook and contribution-tracking system built specifically for Susu operators, daily/weekly collectors, micro-savings schemes, and community finance groups. It replaces manual record books with a secure, automated, and transparent ledger for both operators and contributors.

How it Works

SO4PB IDEA CONCEPTION

1. Project Overview

  1. Product Name: SO4 PassBook (SO4PB)

  2. Purpose:
    To help Susu Operators and Savings Collectors accurately record customer contributions, withdrawals, commissions, and balances; while providing contributors with a secure digital PassBook identity.

Problem

  1. Traditional Susu systems often face challenges such as:

  2.  Manual records that are prone to errors

  3. Paper PassBooks get lost, damaged, or miscalculated.

  4.  Lack of visibility into customer balances

  5. Operators struggle to reconcile daily collections.

  6.  No centralized database for operators managing hundreds of customers

  7.  Disputes due to poor record-keeping or unclear transaction history

  8.  Limited trust between collectors and contributors

​

SO4PB solves these by providing a digitized, verifiable PassBook system that records every transaction with accuracy, speed, and security.

    Each customer gets a unique digital ID and PassBook.

  6. Generate receipts and reports instantly
