To mark its 24th anniversary, Safaricom, Kenya’s leading telecommunications company, is offering a special treat to its customers. Through the “Asante Kwa Miaka 24” campaign, Safaricom will refund the transaction fee for the first M-PESA send money transaction of the day. This initiative is a gesture of gratitude from Safaricom to its loyal customers, acknowledging their support throughout the years.
How the Offer Works
The offer is available to all Safaricom customers, making it easier and more affordable to send money via M-PESA. To take advantage of the fee refund, users can:

The refund applies only to the first M-PESA send money transaction completed each today. After the transaction is processed, the transaction fee is credited back to the user’s M-PESA account.
Since its establishment in 2000, Safaricom has grown to become a cornerstone of Kenya’s telecommunications industry. M-PESA, launched in 2007, has revolutionized mobile money transfers and financial inclusion, allowing millions of Kenyans to send, receive, and save money using their mobile phones. As Safaricom celebrates 24 years of service, this offer serves as a thank-you to the customers who have supported the company throughout its journey.
M-PESA has played a crucial role in transforming Kenya into a global leader in mobile money adoption. Today, M-PESA boasts over 51 million users across Kenya and other African countries. The service has made financial transactions more accessible to people in rural and urban areas alike, enabling them to send and receive money, pay bills, access loans, and even save for the future.
The fee refund campaign is just one of the many ways Safaricom continues to empower its customers. It aligns with the company’s vision to drive financial inclusion and enhance the convenience of mobile transactions for all Kenyans.
