Open a business account

Register your company for a Pfuma Core account.

Do the paperwork online instead of at a counter. Create a login, fill in your company details, upload your documents, and follow the review from wherever you are. When it is approved, the person who registered becomes the first administrator on the account.

  1. 1.Create your login

  2. 2.Fill in and upload

    Enter the company and representative details, then attach each required document.

  3. 3.Submit and track

    Our team reviews it. If anything needs attention you will see exactly what, in here.
