How your savings circle works

Start or join a circle on the Cenkali website, no app download required. Everyone puts in the same amount each round in USDC, a digital dollar, and the pot rotates to a new member automatically. Every payment and payout is recorded on Base, a public blockchain, so your whole circle can see exactly where the money goes.

Four easy steps

Step 1

Create the circle

Five fields, plain words. Name it, set how many members, the contribution per round, the days per round, and the reserve target. Every rule is visible before anyone pays.

Step 2

Invite your people

Send the link by WhatsApp, text, or email, and pick English or Español for each invite. The payout order builds as seats fill. The circle cannot start until every seat is taken.

Step 3

Contribute, round by round

One shared record: who has paid, whose turn it is, what is in the pot, and what the reserve holds. Every round settles against a contract address anyone can check.

Step 4

Take your turn

When your turn arrives, the pot moves to you automatically, recorded on-chain for the whole circle to see. No chasing, no awkward reminders.

Invites go where your people already are.

Send the link by WhatsApp, text, or email. Pick English or Español for each invite, so nobody is left translating.
