Why M-Pesa operations will be disrupted on Sunday
Safaricom’s M-Pesa money transfer operations will not be available for four hours on Sunday, August 27.
The service will be disrupted starting Sunday at 12:30 am to 4:30 am.
This is due to a continued upgrade of the M-Pesa platform.
“This upgrade has been scheduled with due consideration of our customers comfort to result into the least inconvenience. We expect all services to be restored and M-Pesa to be fully functional following the process,” read Safaricom’s statement.
The platform has been undergoing systematic upgrades that the company hopes will help increase functionality.
