The tariffs had been waived last year with the view of encouraging the use of mobile money and other forms of cashless payments, thereby minimizing the use of physical cash in light of the pandemic.
The daily T-Kash limit per transaction will remain at KSh150,000, with the daily sending limit being retained at KSh300,000 with a wallet limit access of KSH 300, 000. Any transactions between KSh50,000 up to KSh300,000 will attract a rate of KSh100. All other fees remain unchanged.
Telkom is embarking on a journey to enhance its digital financial services offering, T-Kash, over the coming weeks, to make it more reflective of current customer demands, concerning increased security, simplicity, availability, and reliability.
