Empowering African businesses with world-class payroll and HRM tools so they can change the continent.
About us
Bento celebrates African businesses and business builders, and believes they have the power to change the continent. By creating innovative solutions, we empower these unsung heroes with the tools they need to succeed. Our solutions are not simply copied from developed markets and then forced on our local businesses in a “take it or leave it” approach. African businesses deserve better, so we pay attention to the unique business environment on the continent and develop tailored solutions that solve the real problems these businesses face on a daily basis. Building a business is an extremely challenging journey anywhere, but even more so in our part of the world. This is why at Bento, we will always be in beta, not just looking for how to improve our core solutions, but also to continue creating new solutions that adapt to an ever-changing business environment and the new complexities that come with it. Beyond empowering African businesses by equipping them with world-class payroll and HRM solutions, Bento is also redefining employee benefits. We call it employee benefits 2.0, and it empowers African employees in a way never seen before, opening them up to a world of innovative products and services including credit solutions, insurance, savings, investments and more, all of which boosts morale and improves their overall quality of life. A win-win for both employer and employee. It’s our way of building a better continent. One business at a time.

🚀 Big news (well, not so big anymore because it’s almost a month now, but still exciting)! I recently started my journey at Bento Africa as a Customer Support executive, and it has been nothing short of an adventure. 🌟 Now, let’s talk about payroll—because that’s what we do here (there are many more though). Imagine waiting for your hard-earned money, and something goes wrong. Frustrating, right? That’s where my team and I come in. From answering queries to troubleshooting app issues, to pushing out payments so everyone gets paid on time—it’s a constant hustle. Sleepless nights? Sometimes. But it’s worth it knowing someone out there has peace of mind because their salary just landed in their account. Essentially, part of my job is this: I get paid to make sure you get paid. Crazy, huh? 😄 The last few weeks have taught me that customer support isn’t just about solving problems; it’s about empathy, timeliness, and efficiency. It’s about making the complex feel simple and turning frustration into satisfaction. So here’s to more learning, more challenges, and more opportunities to serve better. Oh, and maybe a few more sleepless nights (but that’s fine, as long as everyone’s getting paid). If you’re in customer support or have ideas on how to make this space better and more seamless, I’d love to connect and learn from you. Let’s make customer service work—for everyone! #NewRole #CustomerSupport #BentoAfrica #CustomerExperience #PayrollSolutions
