Give me sixty seconds. I'll show you where your utility money actually goes — and why most landlords are quietly losing it every month.

The problem nobody names

If you supply utilities to tenants, you've become their bank.

You pay the utility up front. Then you spend the month hoping to collect it back. Here's where it leaks away.

Arrears walk out the door

A tenant leaves owing two or three months — and you almost never see it again.

Leaks run unseen

A pipe drips for weeks before anyone notices — every litre billed to your account.

The bulk bill is yours

One shared utility bill lands on your desk, with no fair way to split it per unit.

None of it shows up on a statement. It just quietly disappears — month after month.

The fix

FactorFast flips the order. Money in, before usage out.

A prepaid meter on every unit, wired to TswanaPay — our own Bank of Botswana–regulated payments rail. Nobody uses a drop before they've paid for it.

Meter every unit

Prepaid electricity & water, fitted with minimal disruption.

Tenant tops up

They buy tokens on TswanaPay, anytime, from their phone.

It settles first

Power, water, rent and levies clear before consumption.

You're paid up front

No chasing, no absorbing. Then the loop just repeats.

Leaks get flagged the moment the flow looks wrong — an alert to you, not a line on next month's bill.

Revenue assurance

More than meters. Your complete property collection.

Utilities, rent and levies — collected on one platform and settled before anyone uses a thing. You see every pula, and you secure it. That's revenue assurance.

Prepaid utilities

Electricity & water, paid up front and metered per unit — never used before they're paid for.

Rent collection

Rent settles first — tokens aren't released until it's paid, so the lights stay on with your cash flow.

Levies & service charges

Body-corporate levies and service charges collected automatically, on time, every cycle.

Revenue assurance

A real-time view of every meter, payment and collection — so every pula is accounted for, and secured.

You might be thinking…

Fair questions. Here are the honest answers.

You’ve probably been burned before, or you’re wondering where the catch is. So let’s put the usual worries on the table.

“This sounds expensive to install.”

The site assessment is free, and metering is structured to pay for itself out of the revenue it recovers — not your pocket up front. We’ll show you the numbers for your building before you commit a thebe.

“Won’t it disrupt my tenants?”

Installation is quick and scheduled around your building. After that, tenants simply top up on their phone — most find it easier than waiting for a bill at month-end.

“What if a tenant still won’t pay?”

That’s the whole point of prepaid: there’s nothing to chase. No credit, no usage. The money arrives before the power does — so a non-paying tenant simply isn’t your loss anymore.

“Can I trust you with my money?”

Collections run on TswanaPay, the payments arm of Fastech-ePay (Pty) Ltd, within Botswana’s Bank of Botswana electronic-money framework — and you see every pula move in real time. We’ve done this for landlords since 2018.

Why landlords trust us

Real buildings. Real money landing on time.

"

The water meters closed the gap on high bills — and we control rent too, because tokens aren't issued until rent is paid.
