Me thinks YU,Orange and Airtel should do what the Kenyan opposition did to defeat Moi in 2002, form a mobile money platform with enough scale to compete with Mpesa. But I'm pretty sure safcom is already working on other initiatives to stay ahead. They are more likely to launch the next Mpesa than any of its competitors are. As it is safcom is becoming a platform that allows other partners to make money off it. Much like FB or Google. Sustainability 101....me thinks it will soon become almost impossible to compete against safcom. On 2/1/12, Mark Mwangi <mwangy@gmail.com> wrote:

[OT] Some very funny comment I just wonder what happened
"...*In any case Mpesa is proprietary to Vodafone and under license to Safaricom and it is therefore not in our gift to further license it to any other player*."
Is this to mean that Vodafone can unplug mpesa at will or for any other reason deemed fit to them?
