Hussein,
If Bank A decided to sell juice there would be an expectation that they sell the juice to everyone not just the ATM holders. Also that they not prevent their customers from buying juice from other juice vendors. No?

It's a good economic argument for Safaricom if nothing else. But yes, I do agree this shouldn't be forced on them. They should have that choice. Just like any bank has a choice not to have their ATMs connected to other banks..despite the KBA and the Clearing house. There will come a time that Mpesa will wish they had made the system agnostic to all service provides and charge a small fee for it..

Its like coming to my house and suggesting that the TV i bought for my family is a public good. Safaricom has rights over Mpesa including terminating its use, we have airtelmoney, Orangemoney, i cant get the argument. If i want Safaricom products i move to the network.

In my mind, Safaricom communication services and M-PESA are different services. Requiring that one subscribe to the first (Safaricom network) to access the benefits of the second (M-PESA) amounts to tying. This also applies to a lot of the M-products that run exclusively on that platform.

We might be looking at this Safaricom dominance issue wrongly. Let Safaricom run mpesa but have the exclusivity to safaricom numbers removed.
