Safaricom has secured a ‘hot’ deal with one of the world biggest online shopping platform.

Safaricom on Tuesday said it had secured a deal to use its M-Pesa mobile payment service for online shopping on the Aliexpress.com site, run by Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group.

Safaricom was the first mobile service provider to invent mobile banking, M-Pesa, which has taken the world by storm.

Safaricom in Mpesa gives loans through many forms and the latest one of Fuliza which helps one send money with minimum or zero amount in the account.

Under the deal, Ant Financial, an affiliate of Alibaba that runs the portal’s payment services, will offer M-Pesa as one of the payment options with transactions denominated in Kenyan shillings, Safaricom said.

“The move especially targets micro traders in the country who source goods and other supplies from manufacturers in China,” Safaricom said in a statement.

Safaricom is flying high with its intention of providing 400G network in collaboration to Huawei.
