Kwale county has partnered with Safaricom to roll out cashless payments for its 700,000 citizens. The partnership will see the county accept payment for all services it offers including market fees, cess, and parking levies through M-Pesa. “This partnership will enable Kwale county to serve its citizens more efficiently by easing the process of making payments. The service sees Kwale become the 17th devolved unit to adopt and fully integrate cashless payments through M-Pesa. This development will boost Kwale in our ambition to increase the efficiency and accountability of our service delivery,” Amos Onduko, Kwale County Executive Committee Member for Revenue.
