- Pick, play, votePick the line-up, record the score, and let the players vote for man of the match.
What the group chat loses track of
Who’s coming, who’s paid, who scored. Kept in one place, for the whole season.
-
Know who’s paid
Players see what they owe and how to pay your M-Pesa till. An admin ticks payments off as they come in; the money never passes through Grao.

Man of the match, by vote
The players who played pick the best player, never themselves. Closing the vote reveals the award, ready to share.

Questions
Something else? Email jayson.mulwa@gmail.com
Do players need to download an app?
No. It runs in the phone’s browser. Players can add it to their home screen, and it opens like any other app.
How do players join?
The team’s owner shares a squad invite link in the group. Players open it, tap their name or add themselves, and they’re in.
Does Grao take the payments?
No, it keeps track of them. Players see what they owe and your M-Pesa till or paybill, and an admin ticks each payment off when it arrives.
Can we play among ourselves?
Yes. Split the squad into two named sides, bibs and non-bibs, each with its own line-up. Results and the leaderboard count both.
What does it cost?
[Pricing to be decided]
Tupatane grao.
See you at the pitch. Set your team up before Sunday.
