Contribute
A contribution is money you put toward something the association is doing — a njangi turn, a borehole, your dues, a gathering, or simply a gift to the work. You choose what it is for, you say how much, and the payment happens on the payment service's own screen.

The choices
What a contribution can be for
Contributions to the branch — never access to it.
Njangi contribution
Your turn in a rotating group. The book for it stays with the group.
Development project
Toward a borehole, a classroom block, a culvert, a market shed.
Membership dues
What members pay to belong. Your village or branch sets it.
Donation
A gift to the work, not tied to any one thing.
Event ticket
A place at a gathering the association is holding.
Nothing on this list buys access to anything. Bafut TV, Bafut Radio and the classes are free, and no contribution unlocks them.
The flow
What will happen, when giving is switched on
- Step 1
You choose and confirm
You pick what the contribution is for and type the amount in francs. Nothing has moved yet.
- Step 2
The payment service takes over
Bafut Manjong asks it to start a payment and sends you to its own screen. Your PIN is typed there, never here.
- Step 3
It tells the app what happened
The payment service confirms settlement back to the app. That confirmation, and nothing else, is what makes a contribution real.
- Step 4
It appears in the book
Once confirmed it is recorded under its reference, and it counts toward what the project or the group actually received.
Be clear about this
What Bafut Manjong does not do
It never holds your money
Not for a second. The payment service moves the money between you and the association; this app starts the request and reads back the answer. It cannot take, keep or return a franc, so it cannot refund one either — that is a conversation with your treasurer.
It never says a contribution arrived before it did
Coming back from the payment screen is not confirmation. Until the payment service confirms settlement, this app says so plainly, and no pending contribution is counted toward any total on the site.
It never suggests what you should give
There are no preset amounts on this page, no figure marked as typical and no count of who else has given. What you contribute is between you and the association.
