Safaricom has introduced M-PESA Ratiba, a feature that allows users to set up standing orders directly from their M-PESA wallets, streamlining the payment process for recurring transactions and utility bills.

This new service aims to enhance the convenience of mobile money management while expanding opportunities in subscription services across various sectors, including media and entertainment.

The M-PESA Ratiba feature empowers users to automatically transfer funds on a daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly basis, catering to a wide range of payment needs, from family support to regular utility bills. Safaricom assures customers that there are no penalties for cancelled or failed standing order transfers due to insufficient balance, making it a hassle-free option for managing finances.

“Safaricom continues to transform lives through the delivery of differentiated and personalized digital financial services and experiences to our customers,” said Peter Ndegwa, CEO of Safaricom. “M-PESA Ratiba will allow customers worry-free digital payments of bills and transactions. We continue to innovate on the M-PESA platform to give our customers more visibility, control, and security around their financial wellness.”
