 What Is Safaricom PostPay?

Safaricom PostPay is a unique tariff that allows users to access Safaricom's services first and pay later. It's designed with convenience in mind, allowing users to use data, make voice calls, and send SMS without constantly topping up their airtime. PostPay is open to all Safaricom prepay customers (excluding corporate accounts) and offers a minimum monthly credit limit of 1,050 Kenyan Shillings.

Joining Safaricom PostPay

Joining Safaricom PostPay is a straightforward process that can be done via USSD or the MySafaricom App. Here's how to get started:

Via USSD *544#

1. Dial *544# on your Safaricom mobile phone.

3. You'll be presented with a predefined credit limit based on your usage. You'll be asked to set one if you don't have a credit limit.

The Significance of the Credit Limit

The credit limit is an essential aspect of Safaricom PostPay. It allows you to set a maximum amount for your PostPay bill at the beginning of each month. For example, if you're comfortable spending 1,000 Kenyan Shillings monthly, you can set that as your limit. Safaricom may suggest a limit based on your usage patterns, but you can adjust it to your preference. With the credit limit, you essentially receive a zero-interest "loan" from Safaricom to use for the month, which includes buying bundles and paying later.
