Safaricom Increases Home Fibre Speeds by up to 2.5 Times


Safaricom has announced an upgrade to its Home Fibre offering, increasing internet speeds by up to 2.5 times at no additional cost to customers. 

Under the new enhancements, customers across all Home Fibre plans will benefit from substantial speed boosts while retaining their current pricing. Entry-level packages will now deliver speeds of up to 15 Mbps, while mid-tier plans will offer 35 Mbps and 80 Mbps. Premium packages will reach speeds of up to 400 Mbps, making it suitable for homes with heavy internet usage.

“As homes become increasingly connected, reliable high-speed internet is no longer a luxury but an essential service for modern living. By upgrading Home Fibre speeds, we are delivering greater value to our customers, strengthening our market leadership, and laying the foundation for smarter, more connected homes and communities across Kenya. Customer expectations continue to rise, and we are committed to meeting them while maintaining a competitive edge. With this upgrade, we aim to provide smooth multi-device streaming, buffer-free video calls, and reliable performance”.  said Peter Ndegwa, CEO, Safaricom.

With coverage reaching over 800,000 homes, Safaricom continues to lead in fixed internet services. The telco says this is driven by strong customer trust, reliable networks, and consistent performance.

It adds that the speed upgrade is designed to ensure customers receive greater value for their current spend while future-proofing households for emerging smart technologies.
