Does that mean withdrawal charges do not change?

Eish, tumeumia na vile tunalipa wafanyi kazi na Mpesa.

Why cant you pay them via Airtel Money? Its cheaper for you as a Bulk Payment payer, its cheaper for them to withdraw. Airtel Money even gives them a VISA Card that they can use to withdraw their money at any ATM at local ATM charges...

30bob at a Chase ATM
50bob at a Kenswitch
100bob at other VISA ATMS...

I'm afraid this is exactly what I might just do. Let me ponder this...

Similar tricks have been in the public domain for quite a while. Someone even blogged about them here

that's the hogwash media we have...they read only half of the press briefing and then they go ahead and make a 5 minute inaccurate report
