Water utilities across Kenya, Rwanda, Sudan, South Sudan, and Uganda are undergoing a major digital shift, driven by innovations such as Prepaid Communal Water Meters / Water ATMs, Prepaid STS Smart Water Meters, LoRaWAN AMI Prepaid Smart Water Meters, STS Integrated Water Meters, and Bulk Postpaid Smart Water Meters. These modern systems solve long-standing issues such as non-revenue water, meter tampering, inaccurate billing, and operational inefficiencies.
1. The Rise of Prepaid Water Technology in East Africa
Prepaid Communal Water Meters / Water ATMs
Prepaid water dispensing systems—often called Water ATMs, communal prepaid water meters, automated water vending machines, or smart water kiosks—are revolutionizing how households in urban and rural areas access clean water. These systems use contactless smart cards, tokens, RFID cards, and mobile payments (M-Pesa), allowing consumers to buy only the amount of water they need, eliminating disputes and ensuring transparency.
