Airtel Money is making waves in Kenya’s mobile payments landscape once again with its latest “Rudishiwa Transaction Fee” offer, a game-changer for Paybill transactions.
In this new promotion, customers get back 50pc of the transaction fee as airtime, adding even more value to their mobile payment experience. Whether paying utility bills or shopping online, Airtel Money users now enjoy convenience with an extra boost of airtime to stay connected.
Following the success of last year’s Rudishiwa campaign, which refunded transaction fees for withdrawals, Airtel Money has expanded the program to include Paybill payments.
Customers paying through Airtel Paybills—whether it’s for electricity, water, or digital services—will now receive 50pc of their transaction fees back in airtime.
“This offer not only enhances value but ensures our customers stay connected throughout the festive period,” said Airtel Money Managing Director Anne Kinuthia Otieno.
With partners like KPLC, Nairobi Water, Mombasa Water, DSTV, and eCitizen on board, Airtel Money users can seamlessly pay for essential services while reaping rewards.
The offer also extends to payments at major retailers and merchant outlets across Kenya, thanks to strategic collaborations with Equity Bank, KCB Bank, and Cooperative Bank.
Airtel Money has been doubling down on partnerships to broaden its reach and improve accessibility for users.
The most recent collaboration with Naivas Supermarket allows customers to deposit and withdraw cash at all Naivas branches nationwide. This move strengthens Airtel Money’s agent network, which already boasts over 90,000 agents and 2,300 exclusive branches.
By integrating services with key providers and retail chains, Airtel is setting a new standard for mobile payment solutions in the region.
Mobile money has become a cornerstone of Kenya’s financial ecosystem, and Airtel Money is at the forefront of this evolution. From expanding its distribution footprint to offering innovative payment solutions, the company’s focus remains on financial inclusion and user convenience.
“The growing potential of mobile money is crucial for enhancing financial inclusion and economic activity,” Otieno emphasized. “Our goal is to continuously provide value, choice, affordability, and convenience to our customers.”
As Airtel Money scales up its investments and partnerships, it is clear the platform is committed to reshaping mobile transactions in Kenya, making them more accessible and rewarding for millions of users.
