15. M-PESA
How it works
• M-PESA Agents are:
– Safaricom dealers
– Retailers with a substantial distribution network such as petrol
stations, distributors, supermarkets and registered SMEs
– selected banks and micro-finance institutions
• Sending money
– go to an agent and make a cash deposit
– electronic money is then transfered into your M-PESA account
confirmed by an SMS received by both the agent and the customer
– you can then transfer money to other mobile phone users by SMS
• Receiving money
– go to an M-PESA agent and make an electronic transfer to the agent,
who will exchange this for cash

“There will be much less face-to-face contact and less use of ATMs, except
for cash. Will banks be needed as financial intermediaries?”
“A bank’s branding disappears. We become a pure commodity where the
customer will only want us to be there and service them via the mobile they
use.”
“Seems like a long way off and would probably need a Virgin or a Wal-Mart
to partner to make it happen.”
“I think this idea is way out there – ten to twenty years – before this plays
out in any sizable way.”
