Sending money from M-Pesa to Airtel Money has become a straightforward process thanks to the interoperability between mobile money platforms.
This interoperability is a significant step forward in enhancing the convenience of mobile transactions, allowing users of different networks to transact with each other seamlessly.
This feature is what powers MPesa’s Tuma Popote Service.
M-Pesa, operated by Safaricom in Kenya, is one of the most popular mobile money services in Africa, and Airtel Money is another widely used service offered by Airtel.
The ability to send money between these two services is crucial for facilitating transactions in a region where mobile money has leapfrogged traditional banking systems.
