Safaricom on Friday announced that it has passed the 30 millionth customer milestone, cementing the firm’s position as the most preferred mobile service provider in the country. To celebrate the milestone, Safaricom is thanking its customers for their loyalty through compelling Bonga Points offers effective immediately. 

“We would like to thank each of our more than 30 million customers for choosing Safaricom as their preferred network which has contributed to our achievement of this remarkable and historic milestone. This breakthrough reflects our customer’s vote of confidence in our purpose of Transforming Lives. Last year as we turned 18, we announced our brand promise of ‘Nawe Kila Wakati’, where we renewed our commitment to always deliver great value on our network,” said Sylvia Mulinge, Safaricom Chief Customer Officer. 

Between Friday and Sunday, all Safaricom customers will have the option to redeem one Bonga Point for Ksh 1 worth of airtime to a limit of Ksh 100 airtime, or one Megabyte of data valid seven days to a limit of one GB, enjoying a 67% discount. Customers can redeem the offers as many times as they wish for the three days by dialing *444*3#.

Safaricom will also extend the 1 to 1 offer to the Neon Kicka 4, which will be available for 3,499 points. Customers with fewer points can top up the difference in cash at Ksh 1 for one point. The device will be available at all Safaricom shops and all dealer outlets countrywide while stocks last. 

In October 2018, Safaricom marked its 18th anniversary since the company was founded in 2000.

Over the last 18 years, Safaricom customers have enjoyed a variety of transformative products and services.

Safaricom has also spent more than Ksh 100 billion in the last three years ensuring more than half of Kenya’s population has access to high-speed mobile connectivity through 4G while 3G and 2G networks reach more than 91 per cent and 96 per cent of the population respectively.

Besides its products and network, Safaricom has also placed a lot of focus in being close to its customers through initiatives such as ‘Ndoto Zetu’.
