  • How to Access Kwetu eSIM on M-PESA:

The integration eliminates common cross-border travel hassles—such as hunting for physical SIM cards at foreign airports, dealing with expensive international credit card fees, or experiencing unexpected roaming bill shocks. Through the new Mini App, users can browse, purchase, and activate digital SIM profiles covering over 200 destinations worldwide within minutes.

“Travelers want instant, reliable data without the friction of physical SIM swaps or complicated payment methods,” said Kevin Mwando, GM at Kwetu eSIM. “By bringing Kwetu eSIM into the M-PESA Super App, we are making global connectivity as effortless as sending money back home. You can now configure your travel data package before takeoff and connect automatically the moment you land.”

Key Features & User Benefits:

  • Direct M-PESA Checkout: Purchase data packages seamlessly in Kenya Shillings using standard M-PESA funds—no international debit or credit cards required.
  • Instant Digital Delivery: Provision eSIM profiles over-the-air in a few taps.
  • Dual-SIM Convenience: Keep primary Safaricom numbers active for incoming calls and SMS while routing data through Kwetu’s regional partner networks.
  • Flexible Coverage: Access localized, regional (such as EAC bundles), or global data plans tailored to specific trip lengths.

How to Access Kwetu eSIM on M-PESA:

  1. Open the M-PESA Super App.
  2. Navigate to the Services / Book & Travel Apps tab.
  3. Select Kwetu eSIM to complete the purchase.
