Equitel - M-Pesa battle heats up as Safaricom raises M-Pesa termination fees
by Dennis Kioko 10 Sep '15

10 Sep '15

Equitel has silently hiked up the amount it charges to send money to M-Pesa, leading to a rise of more than 100% and even 200% depending on the amount you are sending. Equity Bank says it charges remain about KSh. 30, but the extra costs are what Safaricom is levying them to accept M-Pesa deposits from Equitel http://www.infotake.co.ke/2015/08/equitel-users-silently-hit-by-100.html -- with Regards: blog.denniskioko.com <http://www.denniskioko.com/>
