Products & services

Eight platforms. One local partner.

Nothing here is a rebadged foreign system. Each one exists because a Malawian business needed it and could not buy it. See all services.

Maziko Mail

Enterprise email on your own domain

Malawian companies lose their business email not because they cannot afford it, but because forex shortages make paying a foreign provider impossible. Maziko Mail removes that problem entirely: billed in Malawi Kwacha, hosted and supported locally.

You keep the industry-standard experience — custom domains, generous mailboxes, calendars and shared contacts, mobile and desktop clients, spam and virus filtering, admin controls and delegated access.

  • Pay in MWK
  • Custom domains
  • No forex required
  • Local support

Enterprise VAS

SMS, USSD and voice, scoped to your requirements.

Value-added services are rarely off the shelf. We start by understanding what you are trying to do, then build and run the channel that fits — on our platform, or integrated straight into yours.

SMS Integration

Messaging inside your systems

Wire SMS into the software you already run — core banking, ERP, CRM, billing or a bespoke app — over REST APIs and SMPP, with sender IDs and delivery reports.

USSD Services

Self-service on any handset

Menu-driven services on a shared or dedicated shortcode, working on the simplest feature phone with no data, integrated live with your back office.

IVR

Interactive voice response

Automated call handling for enquiries, balances, confirmations and support routing, with prompts in English or Chichewa and full call reporting.

Priced after we understand it

Volumes, operator agreements, integration surface and compliance obligations differ for every organisation. Every VAS engagement starts with a requirements discussion, then a written scope.

Our story

From one core banking system to a full enterprise portfolio.

We started in 2018 as Maziko Financial Technologies. Malawi's financial institutions were choosing between expensive foreign systems with poor local support and legacy tools that could not keep pace. Rowland Buathera, Clifford P. Mwale and Alex Ken Piringu set out to build the alternative: MX Core, robust enough for a bank, affordable enough for a SACCO.

By 2024 the demand had outgrown the name. Gaming operators, travel companies, enterprises needing communication infrastructure — the mandate widened, so we rebranded to Maziko Technologies. Not cosmetic: a deliberate shift to becoming a full-spectrum enterprise technology partner.

“The Pursuit of Amazing”

Three words that say everything about how we work. We do not build software to tick boxes — we build technology that genuinely amazes the people who use it.

  • Founded in Lilongwe in 2018, incorporated under the Malawi Companies Act
  • Best FinTech Company in Malawi, Malawi ICT Innovation Awards 2020
  • MX Core live since 2019, powering agricultural payments with MlimiPay
  • Eight platforms in market across six sectors

Three things a foreign vendor cannot replicate.

Local knowledge. Local presence. Local commitment.

Built for Africa, by Africans

Not adapted from systems designed for Europe or America. Built around the infrastructure realities of markets like Malawi — so they work in the real world, not just in theory.

End-to-end capability

Core banking to payments, gaming to travel, communications to custom builds. Clients grow multi-product relationships with one trusted partner.

Proven track record

Live systems since 2018 — generating transactions, serving customers, delivering value daily. The 2020 Best FinTech award is one external marker of it.

Responsive local support

No ticket queue in another timezone. Our team is here in Malawi, accessible and accountable, treating your uptime as our responsibility.

A partner, not a vendor

We invest time in understanding your business and give honest advice. Our growth is tied to the growth of the institutions we serve.

Simplicity as a principle

Great technology should be invisible. Whether a core banking system or a booking platform, we remove complexity rather than pass it on.

Who we serve

Deliberately diverse, because real problems are.

Banks & microfinance

Modern, affordable core banking and payments infrastructure.

SACCOs & cooperatives

Digitising operations and improving member service delivery.

Enterprises & merchants

Reliable digital payment processing and mobile money integration.

Licensed gaming operators

A hosted lottery and gaming engine, branded and run as your own.

Corporates, government & NGOs

Enterprise-grade bulk SMS, USSD, IVR and business email.

Travel operators

Bus companies, airlines, hotels and tour providers going digital.

Startups & SMEs

Bespoke development with a dedicated technical partner.

Public institutions

Secure, sovereign, locally-supported systems. An emerging vertical.

Tell us what you are trying to solve.

We welcome enquiries from prospective clients, partners and investors. Whether it is a core banking migration, a payments integration, a lottery licence you need a platform for, a USSD or IVR service you need scoped, or moving your company email off forex — we would love to hear from you.
