FaidiHR, the Nairobi Kenyan-based payroll startup, has launched a new fintech product called CasualPay that is designed to transform the way businesses manage and pay casual workers.

It allows attendance to be booked in the system on a real-time basis, and reconciliation of working days which automatically computes the total amount owed to the casuals.Finally, business owners are able to initiate payments, which once approved sees casuals receive their money on M-Pesa automatically with a click of a button
