MPESA AGENTS CLOSED FOR 6 MONTHS & PUNISHED

@Mzichi

Those are countries that have an equivalent in the name of credit cards and local money transfer agencies…

They don’t need Mobile Money transfers to the degree Kenya does because they have equivalent structures to meet the demand.

How is Safaricom slavery when you WILLINGLY buy their services where others are available?

ingia ecitizen utuambie kama iko option ya kulipa na Airtel money, enye sisi tuko nayo na ni cheaper.
Tuambie ni county gani imepea residents wake option ya kulipia services na Airtel money.

Tunalazimishwa, sio kupenda kwetu

Hii story, an agent friend of mine huko shagz called me and said if I can get him 1m, per day he will be transacting 7m through those deposits, send to bank load to mpesa float.
Profit per day will be like 30 to 40k. In a month or so umebreak even. I didn’t want to tell him how its easy to track such transactions. A simple data analysis will just get you and send you home.
Sasa hashiki simu, I am very sure the hammer fell.

Nope… I had the biz in 2015. Got conned nikatoka. Sato nimerudi

Mpesa to bank is free, if an agent deposits a 100k to you and you send it to their bank account, you are charged 0, then he buys the same money to his float at about 50 Bob, thus earning a 100 from that transaction, 100 such transactions will give you 10k, that’s a week. Repeat.

Safaricom hutumia wakenya vibaya. Countries zote zenye zinajirespect zilikataa Mpesa.
Mpesa iko kenya na zile countries masikini only.
Tanzania, Mozambique, DRC, Lesotho, Ghana, Egypt, Afghanistan, India, Romania, and Albania.

Hakuna pesa yyote Safaricom imeinvest kwa Mpesa. SMS tu ile hucost 50 cents ndio wao hutumia kukamua wakenya billions. Shop ni zetu. Rangi tunapaka sisi wenyewe. Pesa zenye tunaoperate nazo ni zetu sisi wenyewe. Risk tunabear sisi wenyewe. Thousands of kenyans have lost their lives because of Mpesa.

Ati Safaricom haijainvest anything kwa Mpesa?? Ile bangi unakula tafadhali toa mbegu. You clearly think telecommunication infrastructure is a joke?? Ujinga kweli ni kipawa

@captain obvious

Mimi customers wameniomba for five years niwaletee mpesa, nawaambia sigwes na sigwes. Hiyo ni ku-invite kifo from armed thugs in addition to getting conned by rogue safaricom employees and receiving shitty commissions. Sina tamaa mimi, acha nitosheke na mapeni yangu.

true heri ujinyime commission

Nieleweshe, I have 10k …if I send to bank and shit si it reduces due to transaction charges? And those charges is what safaricom shares with agents?

Thought you owned as mpesa? Kwani hujui hisi vitu.

Why don’t they have the option?

Kwa sababu it’s not economical, or reliable. Too few people using it, too many inconveniences for any agency to opt for MPesa alternatives

MPesa is the most reliable money transfer (mobile and otherwise) in Kenya.

Get this,

People don’t buy because you sell, they buy because you sell what they want. Airtel Money won’t feature where MPesa features because THEY DON’T MATCH THEM

At the time niliprovide capital, nikaweka kwà biz ya mtu… he operated and we shared the income.

Ushaiwai skia kitu inaitwa first mover advantage? if yes, you’d not be here talking about superior products sijui selling what people want.

also following, the elder should also explain what happens to the float? , or each day he keeps buying float? na kama haijeisha? are you not raising flags?

The issue of monopoly within safaricom is clearly coming out…not forgetting what powers a monopoly company can have over it’s market. Yes Safaricom to a bigger extend is a parastatal but the fact that it doesn’t allow peer to peer transaction makes the circular flow of money remain a decrypted system. That’s why bado Safaricom watakupea transaction limit for a day meaning you cannot grow beyond specified velocity.I think solution saizi ni kumove to the block chain technology. But as per the prevailing circumstances, you will still find that Safaricom is the best money transfer system available. Paying school fees and utility bills are now done using Paybill. How are we suppose to refuse this?

@Oxygen @Afro also following but i think the 100 comes when the agent re-deposits the 100 to your line so you can send it to his bank account again at 0 charge.
From what i read buying back the money in his account is 50 sindio…so if the agents profit is 100 it means the commision for depositing 100,000 is 150…hivyo ndio nime elewa.

Yaani agent aki deposit 100,000 kwa line yako ana earn 150 pap…wewe unaskuma 100,000 kwa bank account yake at 0 charge…agent kurudisha hio pesa kwa line yake cost ni 50.

Correct me if im wrong.
