FOUNDING GYMS
BE ONE OF THE FIRST GYMS ON KIKOTA
We're looking for a small group of founding gyms in Nairobi to get early access and help shape the platform. Founding gyms use Kikota free during the pilot.
- Free during the pilot
- Early access to every feature
- Help shape what we build next
Gym owners and managers in Kenya, from independent gyms to growing fitness clubs, who want to run everything in one place and give their members more reasons to keep training.
Yes. Kikota sends M-Pesa payment prompts straight to your members' phones for renewals, and payments show up in your dashboard automatically.
No. For now, members use Kikota through a simple web link, with no download needed. A dedicated app is planned for later.
Never your private information. Other gyms only see what appears on the network, like gym names and leaderboard scores. Your member lists, payments, and revenue stay private to your gym.
Founding gyms use Kikota free during the pilot. Pricing for other gyms will be shared at launch.
Kikota is currently in development. Join the waitlist and we'll let you know as soon as it launches.
