Cadena

Cadena is an app for organizing and managing savings chains, rotating savings and credit associations, and contribution groups from your phone. It replaces notebooks and scattered notes by letting administrators create chains, register participants, assign roles, schedule periods and track full or partial payments, receipts, and deliveries. Users can record cash or bank-transfer payments, attach proof, receive notifications, and check who is current or in arrears. Cadena is useful for family groups, community clubs, or informal savings circles that need clearer records, fewer errors and a single secure place to follow each installment.

Key Features

⭐ Cadena lets you create and manage multiple savings chains with period schedules and visual progress tracking.

⭐ Register participants with name, phone number, address, username, password and photo to keep member details organized.

⭐ Assign one or more roles to each participant and monitor payment status to see who is current or in arrears.

⭐ Share receipts and important information through messaging apps, receive notifications for payments or new members, and access recent data offline.

Advantages

Disadvantages
