Parents: paying school fees from your phone (Lipa Ada)

See the fee breakdown and balance, then pay by USSD push, by a control number on any wallet or bank, or by bank/card checkout. The receipt comes by WhatsApp/SMS.

Updated 06/10/2026

Lipa Ada/Pay Fees shows the academic year, class, and for each fee type the amount required, paid and the balance.

  1. Choose the fee type and the amount (part payment from TZS 1,000, or the whole balance).
  2. Choose the way to pay:
    • Simu (USSD) — Airtel Money, Tigo/Yas or Halotel: enter the number, tap Lipa Sasa, then enter your PIN in the USSD prompt on the phone.
    • Namba ya Malipo (control number) — tap Pata Namba ya Malipo. You get a number for that exact amount. Pay it as “kumbukumbu ya malipo” on M-Pesa (*150*00# → Lipa kwa M-Pesa), Airtel Money (*150*60# → ClickPesa), Mixx by Yas (*150*01# → company 889999), Halopesa (*150*88# → 889999) or CRDB (SimBanking *150*03#, app, internet banking, wakala or branch → CLICKPESA). Step-by-step instructions appear under the number. The number never expires; tap Nimeshalipa — angalia after paying.
    • Benki / Kadi — (where the school has enabled it) opens a secure ClickPesa page for bank transfer or Visa/Mastercard.
  3. When the payment is confirmed you see the school receipt number, receive it by WhatsApp/SMS, and the balance updates. The school's accountant sees it at the same moment — no need to bring a slip.

Malipo yako ya mtandaoni lists your online payments with status and receipts; Payments/Malipo shows all payments including those entered by the school.
