By Peter Ochieng

Airtel Money Kenya has launched a campaign dubbed ‘Rudishiwa Transaction Fee.'

Through the promotion, customers will be refunded their withdrawal transaction fees as airtime.

Airtel Money customers who withdraw as little as Sh50 from any Airtel Money agent, will be refunded their withdrawal transaction fees.

The refund applies to any withdrawal charge up to the maximum daily limit of Sh250,000.

"For example, a customer withdrawing Sh1,000 incurs a Sh25 withdrawal charge. Under the Rudishiwa Transaction Fee Campaign, customers will now receive Sh25 as Airtime, which they can use for airtime, data bundles, or SMS," reads a press release from the mobile phone communications company.

Speaking during the launch of the campaign, Airtel Networks Kenya Limited Managing Director, Ashish Malhotra said he hopes it goes a long way in helping Kenyans get connected while saving money.

“The new ‘Rudishiwa Transaction Fee Campaign’ cements our commitment to designing products and solutions that serve multiple payment needs of the user in the market. We believe that the campaign will go a long way to cater to the needs of Kenyans who rely on cash for their daily transactions, helping them stay connected while saving them money."

Anne Kinuthia-Otieno, the Managing Director of Airtel Money Kenya, emphasised as such:

"At Airtel Money, our customers are at the core of our operations, and we are committed to offering them unmatched convenience and value."

She added, "The Rudishiwa Transaction Fee Campaign is a testament to our dedication to make mobile money transactions not only affordable and efficient but also incredibly beneficial."

Airtel customers are encouraged to visit any Airtel Money agent countrywide, then dial *334# or use the Airtel App to get started.
