Customers can now purchase Kenya Power tokens using Safaricom Bonga points. You can now redeem accumulated Bonga points to pay for bills including Kenya Power tokens.
Last year, Safaricom and Kenya Power came to a partnership agreement that will enable payment with Bonga Points. The service is available for both prepaid and postpaid customers.
Safaricom said the partnership would enable their over 7.1 million domestic customers to redeem their Bonga Points to purchase tokens or pay their monthly bills at the rate of Ksh. 20 cents per point. This means that if you have 5,000 Bonga points, you can buy tokens worth 1,000. To check how many Bonga points you need to purchase power tokens, simply dial *126#, select Lipa Na Bonga, then select Bonga Calculator.
