How it works
No branch visit, no agent in the middle. You buy real electricity units, see exactly what you pay for, and move power between meters when someone you trust needs help.
Sign up with your email and phone number. Verify your email, then log in on the web, mobile app, or USSD.
Add your meter number once. gPawa supports prepaid token meters (STS) and smart networked meters (AMI).
Pay with mobile money (for example MTN MoMo). Your payment is converted to kilowatt-hours (kWh) using official block tariffs — no hidden fees.
Load units onto your meter, send kWh to family or a neighbor, or apply for a small electricity loan if you are short. Interest is capped at Uganda's legal maximum of 2.8% per month.
The same wallet and meter work across all channels — start on USSD and finish on the web, or the other way around.
