Tanda app: track contributions and payouts for your tanda

Nyocte is a free tanda and cundina app. Record contributions, follow the payout order, and keep the record open to every member, in Spanish or English.

What it is

What is a tanda?

Also known as: tanda, cundina, rifa, san, pandero

A tanda (also cundina in northern Mexico, san in the Dominican Republic, pandero in Peru) is a rotating savings circle run among family, coworkers, and neighbours across Mexico, Latin America, and Latino communities in the United States. Members contribute a fixed amount each week or month, and the pot goes to one member per round in an agreed order.

The organizer keeps the list and collects the money. Nyocte gives every member the same record, keeps the order and the payout history, and adds reminders and votes, with the app available in Spanish.

Pertanyaan umum

Is Nyocte free for a tanda?

Yes. The app is free for every group, with no member limit and no premium tier. Payment processing, where your group chooses to use it, is handled by a payment provider and can carry a fee. Record-keeping, meetings, votes, and chat cost nothing.

Does Nyocte hold the group's money?

No. Nyocte keeps the record. Contributions can still be collected the way your tanda already collects them: cash at the meeting, bank transfer, or mobile money. Where in-app payments are available, they are processed by a licensed payment provider and Nyocte does not hold funds.

Is the app available in Spanish?

Yes. Nyocte's app is available in Spanish, and each member chooses their own language.

Can members in Mexico and the US share one tanda?

Yes. Members join from any country and follow the same record in the group's currency.
