These initiatives are implemented in partnership with government agencies and development institutions. View national initiatives →
Website design at Thirdsan starts from 350,000 UGX for a professional business website. The final cost depends on scope — a basic informational site is more affordable than an e-commerce platform or booking system. We offer flexible payment plans and full post-launch support for businesses across Uganda and East Africa.
Thirdsan integrates MTN Mobile Money and Airtel Money APIs directly into your website or application so customers can pay without leaving your platform. We also integrate Visa and Mastercard gateways for card payments — ideal for e-commerce, subscription services, and any business collecting payments online in Uganda.
EFRIS (Electronic Fiscal Receipting and Invoicing System) is Uganda Revenue Authority's mandatory fiscal system for VAT-registered businesses. Thirdsan's Hardware Manager Pro POS is fully EFRIS-integrated — issuing URA-compliant receipts in real time, managing inventory, suppliers, and accounting in one platform. If your business is VAT-registered in Uganda, EFRIS compliance is a legal requirement.
Absolutely. Thirdsan specialises in bespoke enterprise software for Uganda and East Africa. We have built SACCO management platforms, investment engines, HR & payroll systems, hospital management systems, fleet management tools, and multi-tenant SaaS applications. We build for web, mobile (Android/iOS/Flutter), or Windows desktop — whatever fits your operations.
Yes — Smart Accounts is Thirdsan's cloud accounting system for SMEs, SACCOs, NGOs, and growing businesses.
