The government loses more in this case! Cash is the most untraceable form of payment. More untraceable than crypto. FYI. I thought I should let you know. 😅

Not Safaricom but the government. In this equation Safaricom loses :-)

I'm trying to understand your conspiracy theory here but I'm left blank! 😅 Why would Safaricom (and the government) want to force us back to the cash economy? As we are oft to say in Kenya - *Hio imeenda! 😀 *
Curious, however, to hear your thoughts on why.

Safaricom PLC and other mobile money operators have reviewed their charges after the enactment of the Finance Act 2023. M-PESA mobile transfer charges have gone up from 12% to 15%.
At the same time, the excise duty rate for call, SMS, and Internet has gone down from 20% to 15%.
Is Financial inclusion in danger? Will users go back to the cash economy? As we fiddle with taxation in the digital space, is there cost-benefit analysis advising these decisions?
