Dear Bill,

My name is Pauline Vaughan, I head up the M-PESA department at Safaricom
and Michael has forwarded me your mail to follow-up with you.

>From the email it seems that some of your customers are having a
challenge paying for your product using M-PESA. Currently the M-PESA
proposition is directed at customers; I assume you are offering your
customers a mobile phone number registered to an individual to send
money to as payment for your report - which you email them once you have
their payment. This is a standard 'send money' transaction; the agent's
involvement in this is limited to processing a deposit transaction for
the customer. We will soon be offering bill payment facility to
organizations as an M-PESA feature & when this is available our Agents
will be trained on the same. If you are interested in utilizing this
functionality as a business, please don't hesitate to get in touch with
myself or Joseck Mudiri - the M-PESA Business Development Manager.


Regards,
Pauline Vaughan

    I wanted to know if anyone has succeeded in using M-PESA for E-Commerce
through a one-step process (like PayPal, or Credit Cards)
