Telkom Kenya has announced new rates for T-Kash effective March 5th 2021. This follows a revision by the company on the rates that had been altered back in 2020 as a response to the Government of Kenya’s directive in a move to curb the spread of Coronavirus.

The company says that compared to their pre-pandemic tariffs, the T-kash tariffs within the “send to registered off-net” category, in the following three transaction bands have been reduced:

KES. 101 – 500,
KES. 501 – 1,000 and
KES. 1,501 – 2,500 transaction bands.

Band	Pre-Pandemic Tariffs	Effective 5^th March 2021 (to registered users T-kash and other Networks)
1 – 49	Free	Free
50 – 100	Free	Free
101 – 200	KES. 5	KES. 5
201 – 500	KES. 10	KES. 5
501 – 1,000	KES. 15	KES. 12
1,501 – 2,500	KES. 35	KES. 32

All Person-to-Person transactions below KES. 100 in the new mobile money tariffs will remain zero-rated.

The daily T-Kash limit per transaction will remain at KES. 150,000, with the daily sending limit being retained at KES. 300,000 with a wallet limit access of KES. 300, 000. Any transactions between KES. 50,000 up to KES. 300,000 will attract a rate of KES. 100. All other fees remain unchanged.
