Airtel Money has reduced transaction fees for eCitizen services by up to 25 per cent after integrating the mobile money service into the platform.
eCitizen is the first-stop portal for Government information and services. The platform houses over 9,000 government services.
The services include applications and renewals for passports, issuance of e-visas for foreign visitors, driver’s license applications, identification card and birth certificate applications, among others.

This partnership also reflects Airtel Money’s support for government-led initiatives, making it a perfect opportunity for further growth and innovation.” Anne Kinuthia-Otieno, the Managing Director of Airtel Money Kenya said.
The company says making payments to the eCitizen platform through Airtel Money is a highlight of Airtel Money’s dedication to enhancing customer experiences through innovative solutions.
