How it works

Invisible. Secure. Always on.

Tallyr fits into how your group already works. No new accounts, no app installs, no change of habit for anyone.

1

Activate in your group

Add Tallyr to your existing WhatsApp group and type /claim. That's it. No new accounts for you or your members. Not even a form to fill.

2

Members pay exactly how they always have.

Zelle, CashApp — same as always. No app. No link to click. No registration. The person who hates technology in your group? They'll never know Tallyr exists. Members can opt out of notifications at any time with one tap.

3

Watch the "Did you get my Zelle?" texts disappear

The moment money lands, that member gets a private confirmation. Every payment. Automatically. Your Sunday evening is yours again.

Transparent by design

Tallyr reads only what it needs. Nothing else.

We know forwarding a bank email can feel risky. Here's exactly what Tallyr sees — and what it deliberately ignores.

Your account balance, password, and transaction history are never read or stored. Tallyr extracts only the sender name and amount from the notification text — nothing else passes through our system.

Automatic matching

It knows it's Alice before Alice tells you.

Every payment matched to the right member by the name on their bank's notification — no manual entry, no spreadsheet update, no guessing.

Zelle & CashApp both supported. Matched by the name on your bank's notification.

Unmatched payments queued for Treasurer review — nothing gets lost.

Instant private DM confirms the member's contribution — so they never have to ask.

The neutral third party

Tallyr does the nagging so the Treasurer doesn't have to.

The hardest part of running a chama isn't the money — it's the awkwardness of chasing friends. Tallyr sends the reminders on your behalf so you stay the friend, not the collector.

Automated reminders go out as the deadline approaches — sent by Tallyr, not you.

Full audit trail means there's never a "but I paid!" dispute.

Members can dispute a missed match directly in WhatsApp — no Treasurer involvement needed.

Zero disruption

Works with how your group already pays.

Tallyr doesn't touch the money. Your group keeps using Zelle and CashApp exactly as before. Tallyr handles what nobody wants to do — the record-keeping.

Zelle — matched by the name on your bank's notification.

CashApp — matched by the name on your bank's notification.

Tallyr never holds funds. All money moves directly between your members.

When every hour matters

When loss hits the community, Tallyr makes sure the group responds as one.

Bereavement funds move fast. A family needs remittance in 48 hours, not 48 days. Tallyr tracks every contribution from the first message — so the Treasurer can focus on the family, not the spreadsheet.

The 48-Hour Guarantee

Funds ready for remittance in hours, not days.

From the moment a case is opened, every contribution is tracked and confirmed in real time.

1
Treasurer opens fund — group notified instantly
2
Members pay via Zelle or CashApp as normal
3
Every payment confirmed automatically
4
Full audit ready for remittance within hours

What treasurers say

Real groups. Real relief.

★★★★★

Our merry-go-round was a mess every month. Now I just send the audit and everyone goes quiet. No arguments, no confusion.

James K. Minneapolis, MN · Chama Chairman
★★★★★

I was Treasurer for 3 years and I was done. Tallyr gave me my Sunday evenings back. I didn't realise how much mental space this was taking.

Privacy & Security

Protects your group's transparency — and your members' privacy.

Financial group data is sensitive. Tallyr handles it the way a trusted institution would.

Encrypted at rest

All personal data is AES-256 encrypted before storage. Names, phone numbers, aliases — never kept in plaintext.

We never hold money

Tallyr is a coordination tool, not a payment processor. All funds flow directly between your members.

Reads only what it needs

Tallyr extracts only the sender name and amount from payment notifications. Your balance and history are never accessed.

No third-party data sharing

Your group's data is never sold, rented, or shared with advertisers or data brokers. Ever.

Your data, your control

Any member can request deletion at any time. Groups can wipe all records when a fund closes.

Encrypted in transit

TLS 1.3 throughout. WhatsApp Flow interactions use RSA-OAEP + AES-GCM — the same standard used by banks.

A note from the founder

We built Tallyr because we were tired of the 'Did you get my Zelle?' texts in our own family groups. We believe Diaspora communities deserve tools that respect our traditions and our time.
