GeraHome in Kenya 2026 — Vetted Home-Service Workers Paid by M-Pesa

Regulation and worker verification

GeraHome providers submit a National ID, a certificate of good conduct from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), NHIF and NSSF numbers, and, where applicable, trade certifications — for example Energy & Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) accreditation for electricians. Customer data is processed under the Kenya Data Protection Act 2019 and we hold an ODPC data controller registration.

Paying with M-Pesa and other rails

M-Pesa is the default. After the job is confirmed complete, tap "Pay now", enter your Safaricom number, and approve the STK push — no paybill to remember, no fumbling for change. Airtel Money and T-Kash work the same way. Visa, Mastercard, and bank card rails are also supported for households that prefer them.

Coverage across Kenya

Nairobi: Westlands, Karen, Kilimani, Lavington, Kileleshwa, Runda, Eastlands (Embakasi, Donholm, Pipeline, Umoja). Mombasa: Nyali, Bamburi, Old Town. Plus Kisumu, Nakuru, Eldoret, Thika, Ruiru, Kiambu. New counties added based on demand.

Competitive landscape

Lynk is a well-known Kenyan marketplace for home services; informal WhatsApp groups and local fundi networks also dominate the market. GeraHome's differentiators: instant M-Pesa checkout, transparent tiered KSh pricing before booking, DCI good-conduct verification on every provider, and cross-product bundles (e.g. post-op GeraClinic visit + GeraHome elderly-care shifts).

2. Pick a time slot in the next 90 minutes or schedule ahead.
