You guessed it, and we are not going to waste your time today.

Tomorrow, you will not be able to access M-PESA services because the carrier will be performing some maintenance works on the mobile money platform.

That means that if you want to transact, make sure you do so before the stated time.

Interruption date: July 18, 2020, to July 19, 2020.

Time: 10 PM to 10 AM the following morning.

Statement from Safaricom:

For more than 13 years, M-PESA has continued to transform millions of lives in Kenya, connecting you to new opportunities and different possibilities every day. To support this continued transformation, we regularly undertake maintenance of our systems from time to time.

In this regard, our M-PESA services shall be undergoing planned maintenance on the night of Saturday 18 July 2020 to Sunday 19 July 2020, starting from 2200 hrs to 1000 hrs. During the maintenance, all M-PESA services including airtime purchase shall be temporarily unavailable.

The timing of this maintenance activity has been planned to result in the least of inconvenience to our customers. We apologize for any inconvenience that may be caused and thank you for your continued support.

We have been complaining that these interruptions are becoming a norm for a product that is deeply entrenched in the Kenyan economy. But what can you do besides waiting?
