Maybe this will help you as well ... am also based out of the country and the work around for this is I roam with my safcom line and only use it for MPESA (Works very well for my case) I use Mobile banking or just NIC Account to MPESA (Online banking ) Then I can send money from my MPESA to what ever number. Have done this now for 3 years and it has worked for me all the time. Alternately just send the money straight to his MPESA account, this is if you have an NIC account you do this online. I do not know about other banks but maybe they do have, I have used CFC as well but NIC serves me just OK ... The countries I have used this method was in Africa, but with online banking I can send to any safcom line while stationed anywhere in the world.

@Thomas - Unfortunately where am mostly working, Safaricom have no roaming agreements (Safaricom is basically nonexistent in Les Pays Francophone). Surprisingly, Airtel has, but every country has its own standalone Airtel Money with no integration to other countries at all. @Steve - I do not know if it may be necessary, since if then I will have to open an SME account with my bank and they just started straight2bank for Mpesa payments. if no solution exists for individuals like me then I may not invest in it :-) ./Ok3ch On Wed, Sep 25, 2013 at 3:49 PM, Steve Obbayi <steve(a)sobbayi.com> wrote: > If you still don't have a solution then I am willing to take a time out > and develop a quick one for you, which you can have on your desk as well. > Get back to me off-list we discuss further > > Steve > > ------------------------------ > > *From: *"Okechukwu" <okechukwu(a)gmail.com> > > *To: *"Skunkworks Mailing List" <skunkworks(a)lists.my.co.ke> > *Sent: *Miércoles, 25 de Septiembre 2013 13:25:46 > > *Subject: *Re: [Skunkworks] Mpesa question - Maybe OT > > @Stephen - What I need is the reverse - I want to be able to send to any > mpesa number from my Visa. > > I also want a solution on my desk, if there is none, I will accept there > is none > > ./Ok3ch > > > On Wed, Sep 25, 2013 at 1:16 PM, ndungu stephen <ndungustephen(a)gmail.com>wrote: > >> Nation Hela - Mpesa to Visa connection. >> >> You can ask them the question online at their site or twitter.. >> >> >> On Wed, Sep 25, 2013 at 3:14 PM, Obi wan riobani <rriobs(a)gmail.com>wrote: >> >>> I think if you go to any western union, you should be able to make the >>> transaction. >>> >>> >>> >>> >>> On Wed, Sep 25, 2013 at 2:58 PM, Okechukwu <okechukwu(a)gmail.com> wrote: >>> >>>> Hi All, >>>> >>>> I happen to be having a handyman who I pay monthly via mpesa, but half >>>> the time am out of the country during month ends and the poor man has to >>>> wait for me to come back.
