Safaricom and Kenya Power reached a collaboration agreement to allow its customers to sort electricity bills using Bonga Points.
The service is available to both prepaid and postpaid subscribers.
According to Safaricom, the project would allow consumers to redeem their Bonga Points for tokens or monthly bills at a rate of Ksh 20 cents per point.
This means that if you have 5,000 Bonga points, you can purchase 1,000 tokens, equivalent to 60-65 token units.
To find out how many points are required to pay their bill, dial *126#, choose Lipa Na Bonga, and then Bonga Calculator.
The consumer will be asked to enter the amount they wish to pay, and they will receive a response indicating the number of points required to pay the bill.
