After reduction of the Mobile Termination Rates (MTR) from KES 0.58 per minute to KES 0.41 per minute, effective March 1, 2024 by the Communications Authority, Airtel Kenya has followed suit to reduce its rates for the benefit of all Kenyan consumers.

Mr. Ashish Malhotra, Managing Director of Airtel Kenya, commented, “We welcome and endorse the reduction of the Mobile Termination Rates, and as a result I am happy to announce reduction in the price points of Weekly and monthly Voice bundles.”

The move also brings in the convenience of having to buy one bundle for a longer duration where customers can Talk/Text bila worries to any Network. From Dec 2023 till now, Airtel has deployed over 300 new sites, bringing its total tally of sites across the country to over 3700.

With the revised MTR and network expansion, Airtel has revamped its Tubonge AllNet and Tubonge On Net plans. The pricing of their Weekly and Monthly Tubonge plans has been reduced, and SMS has been introduced as part of the packages to enable customers to talk and text more for less.

Commenting on the new plans, Prisca Murigu, Marketing Director of Airtel Kenya, said “We are delighted to introduce Airtel’s revamped Tubonge AllNet and Tubonge On Net plans, designed to deliver more affordability, flexibility and value to our customers in light of the reduced MTRs.
