Kenya use cases

How subscriber retention rewards
work in Kenya.

Every reward is denominated in KES (KSh) and redeemable at local Kenya brands. Delivered via SMS (M-Pesa ecosystem) and USSD — works on any phone.

Example 01

Safaricom data bundle rewards

KSh reward card on weekly or monthly data bundle purchase. Issued via SMS — compatible with M-Pesa-registered numbers.

Example 02

Airtel Kenya recharge bonus

Competitive recharge bonus programme for Airtel Kenya subscribers — KSh card on qualifying top-up.

Example 03

Bonga Points supplement

QIFTS reward cards complement Safaricom's existing Bonga Points — for moments where a physical reward card has higher perceived value.
