The Mifos X project spun out of the Grameen Foundation in 2011 and, thanks to generous support from Silicon Valley, The Mifos Initiative was revitalized as a U.S. based 503(c)3. Originally launched in 2006, the software was the industry’s first web-based and open source information system and was well-received winning the Duke’s Choice Award for Best Java Technology for The Open Source Community.  Redesigned and built around an API-centric, cloud-based software architecture, the Mifos X Platform is a modern, connected core banking system for responsible financial services organizations bringing basic financial services to the poor globally.

System Core Features

As of September 2014, The Mifos Platform is used by 106 organizations around the globe serving approximately 2.5 million accounts.  Installations can be found in Mali, Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Rwanda, Ghana, Philippines, India, Myanmar, Cambodia, Nigeria, Belize, Pakistan, Argentina, Peru, Mexico, Haiti, Laos and Morocco.  The largest is BTPN in Indonesia serving more than 1,000,000 clients.  Detailed features can be found on the Mifos X Product Requirements page.  Feature highlights are below:
