The Safaricom till number search tool helps in avoiding wrong transactions. Minimum and

maximum Lipa na M-Pesa amount Customers can pay a minimum of Ksh. 50 and a maximum of

Ksh. 70,000. For this reason, this payment option is not the best for merchants selling

commodities below the price of Ksh. 50 or above Ksh. 70,000. For instance, car dealers who sell

cars starting from a rate of Ksh. 600,000 should not use this method as it may be inconvenient

for their customers. A till SIM card can hold a total of Ksh. 50 million. So, if you receive more

than this amount in just hours, then this might not be the best option for your business. READ

area of technology goes, Safaricom has led the way by providing customers with numerous

solutions to their rising needs. With the successful implementation of M-Pesa, a mobile money

funds in their M-Pesa account. It provides a prompt on the screen when you try to perform any

transaction with insufficient funds and allows you to choose whether or not you wish to proceed

and Fuliza or cancel the transaction. If you select to proceed, it will clearly indicate the extra

a transaction. How do I opt-in? To join, you need to be an M-Pesa registered customer with an

active Safaricom line. This means that you will have to have been a Safaricom customer for

more than 6 months in order to qualify to be an M-Pesa user and consequently a Fuliza user. If

to get M-Pesa Till statement Tuesday, November 26, 2019 at 9:40 AM by Simon Ayub 5 min

read Safaricom is always pioneering new products in the market that catapults the firm higher

and higher. For instance, the M-Pesa product, which was a first in the region and an impactful

technology in the telecommunication industry, was well received. Fast-forward and years later, a

simple monetary transaction platform has created other business-oriented products that help ease

transactions. If you are using this telco’s Lipa Na M-Pesa platform for business transactions, then

you have indeed, at one point, wondered how to get M-Pesa till statement. Maybe you want it for

logistics or solely for accountability. The good news is, getting your statement is a simple and

straightforward process. Image: [Link], @SafaricomPLC Source: Twitter It is a great idea

to keep track of your business transactions, and an M-Pesa Till statement would serve the

purpose. With a bank account, you ordinarily get your statement, although the service is

currently digitized. Most mobile money users often disregard this because of the seemingly low
volumes that are transacted in real-time, and the convenience of having all the transactions at

hand. At the forefront of mobile money transfer services, Safaricom is offering merchants the

capability to request an M-Pesa statement; the process is straightforward and convenient for

most. READ ALSO How to pay for Netflix in Kenya READ ALSO: Safaricom no-expiry date

bundles? What exactly does this mean? What types of statements are available? Now, being a

business, you are probably handling large transactions. Judging from the fact that an M-Pesa Till

line can hold up to Ksh.50, 000,000, you wouldn’t want a brief statement that doesn’t express the

depth of your business transactions and profits. Usually, one has two alternatives: a full

statement or a mini statement. When you go for the long one, which can be an M-Pesa statement

for one year, you will get something that is more detailed. On the contrary, the short one,

referred to as the mini-statement, gives you data on the last five transactions. You can get this via

SMS. When you request a full statement, considering its length, it will be transferred to your

email address. If you want a statement that goes back more than one year, you'll have to do it the

traditional way. Visit a Safaricom care centre and talk to the customer representative who will

help you. READ ALSO Easy steps for using the Fuliza M-Pesa option Something else to keep in

mind as you download your M-Pesa Till statement is that they are sent in PDF; hence, you will

require a PDF viewer. In most instances, the document will be password-protected, and you'll

have to enter your national ID number or that of any other document that you registered your till

premise programs for fund disbursement via Mpesa. Requirements for Bulk Payment service The

qualifications to use the B2C payment service vary with the nature of the company. Sole

proprietors, limited liability companies, partnerships, non-denominational churches, private

schools, SACCOS, and NGOs all have several distinct requirements. READ ALSO NHIF M-

make payments to your customers or workers via mobile phones. Such transactions use the

Business to Business (B2B) service instead and these have different M-Pesa B2B charges. How

to deposit funds for payments A company, organization or institution can do an RTGS transfer to

their M-Pesa corporate account at either KCB and CBA banks. To do this, you have to quote

your B2C shortcode starting with the number 333. The last number should be the beneficiary's

account number. You can also make EFT, cheque, and cash deposits to your Mpesa holding

account. If you are using CBA Bank, then the account number to use is 0420448007, while KCB

Bank clients can use 1147921954. As you make the deposit, ensure the B2C shortcode is quoted.
