❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How do I register for M-PESA for Business (Paybill or Till)?

Visit any Safaricom shop or call 100 to apply for a Paybill number or Buy Goods Till. You will need your business registration documents, ID, and KRA PIN. You can also apply online at safaricom.co.ke/business/m-pesa.

What is the difference between a Paybill and a Till number?

A Paybill number (Business Number) is used when customers need to enter an account number to pay — ideal for utilities, schools, and rentals. A Till number (Buy Goods) is used for direct purchases where no account number is needed — ideal for shops and restaurants.

What is Pochi La Biashara?

Pochi La Biashara is an M-PESA feature that allows small traders to receive business payments separately from their personal M-PESA wallet — without needing a Till or Paybill number. Customers pay by simply selecting Pochi La Biashara when sending money.

What is M-PESA Daraja API?

Daraja is Safaricom’s developer API platform that allows businesses and developers to integrate M-PESA payments directly into websites, apps, and systems. It supports STK Push, C2B, B2C, and B2B transactions. Access it at developer.safaricom.co.ke.

What is Fuliza for Business?

Fuliza for Business is an overdraft facility that allows M-PESA business accounts to complete transactions even when their M-PESA balance is insufficient. It is available to eligible businesses and is repaid automatically when the next payment comes in.

How many transactions does M-PESA process daily?

As of 2026, M-PESA processes 137.9 million transactions daily worth KES 118 billion ($914 million), making it one of the highest volume mobile money platforms in the world. Peer-to-peer transactions alone account for 37 million daily transfers worth KES 27 billion.
