### Mobile Money Accounts

Mobile Money Accounts in the system allow you to manually record and track all mobile money transactions made through your institution’s mobile number.

To add a mobile money account:

1. Go to **Accounting → Transaction Accounts**.
2. Select the **Mobile Money** tab.
3. Click **Add Mobile Money Account**.
4. Fill in the form with the mobile money account name, mobile number, network, and branch.
5. Click **Save**.

Once the account is created, whenever a client pays using mobile money, you should select **Mobile Money** as the payment method during the transaction. This will automatically update the mobile money account balance in the system.

This works the same way as a cash or bank account — every time money comes in through mobile money, the balance increases and can be viewed under mobile money accounts.

### De-activating a Transaction Account

You can deactivate a transaction account when it’s no longer needed or temporarily inactive. Once deactivated, the account cannot be used to make payments or any other transactions in the system. It will be marked as inactive and will not appear when selecting accounts for transactions, but it will still be visible in reports, accounting records, and audit trails for reference. Only authorized users can activate or deactivate transaction accounts to ensure proper control and security.
