Frequently asked questions

Who can see our family tree?

Only members you invite. Living people's details are restricted by default, children's records are always private, and iTach staff cannot see your records unless your family approves time-limited support access.

Can one person belong to two families?

Yes. A person can be recorded in several family spaces (for example their own family and their spouse's) without those families sharing each other's private records.

How do we record polygamous or multiple marriages?

Add as many unions as needed for a person — current or ended, customary, religious or civil — and link each child to the correct parents.

What if we only know an approximate birth year?

Choose “Year only” or “Approximate” precision. You can also mark facts as documented, family tradition or unverified.

Can we import our tree from another website?

Yes — upload a GEDCOM (.ged) file exported from Ancestry, MyHeritage, FamilySearch, Gramps and others.

How do we pay?

By M-PESA STK push, M-PESA Paybill (captured automatically from the confirmation SMS), bank transfer or other approved gateways.
