The word susu is also used in reference to rotating savings and credit associations in Ghana and the Caribbean.

They run their businesses from kiosks located in the market place and act as mobile bankers. Deposits, often of low but regular value, are usually taken on a daily basis over the course of a month. At the end of this period the susu collector returns the accumulated savings to the client but keeps one day's savings as commission. Susu collectors may also provide advances to their clients

We call it “asue”. Participants deposit a particular amount called a “hand”. For example, a participant could “throw a full or half hand” each week or month depending on asue’s terms. A participant would collect a “draw” which is the total amount saved for the asue. We continue to pay homage to our ancestors 🇧🇸

In Nigeria we call it "Osusu". Money is contributed daily and @ the end of the year or month, as the case may be, the collector takes a day contribution as his or her charge/commission 😉
