Everything your circle needs to stay honest

Built on a transparent ledger so no one can cheat — and no one has to argue.

Append-only Ledger

Every contribution and payout is a permanent, timestamped record. Nothing can be quietly edited or deleted.

Visual Rules Builder

Drag members into payout order and set contribution rules — no spreadsheets, no confusion, no arguments.

Trust Scores

Each member earns a reliability score from on-time contributions — building confidence, not blame.

Real-time Dashboard

Pot totals, payments, and payout rotation push to every member live — Server-Sent Events self-hosted, WebSocket on Sub0.

From cash-in-a-notebook to fully transparent

The same trusted tradition your community already runs — just safer and clearer.

Questions, answered

What is a rotating savings circle (Ajo / Esusu / Susu)?

A group where each member contributes a fixed amount every cycle, and the whole pot is given to one member per cycle, rotating until everyone has received once.

Does CircleSafe hold or move my money?

No. CircleSafe records and verifies contributions and payouts for full transparency; the actual cash still moves the way your group already trusts. Payment integrations are on the roadmap.

How does it stop fraud?

Every action is written to an append-only ledger that all members can see, so no one can hide a payment or quietly change the records.

Can I control who gets paid first?

Yes — the circle owner arranges the payout order with the visual Rules Builder, and everyone can see the full rotation.
