The 2020 Covid-19 pandemic led to the government ordering the Central Bank of Kenya to suspend transactions involving Banks and mobile money wallets.
Kenyans have been enjoying this as there have been no charges when transferring money from Bank to MPESA.
In a press release issued on December 6th 2022, the Central Bank of Kenya announced the return of Bank to MPESA transactions hinting that the new charges would be lower than the previous charges before the Covid-19 pandemic.
