[kictanet] Paypal Vs Mpesa

[Patrick Mburu]

Interestingly enough over the last number of months; A group have successfully done the reverse top-up mpesa through validated paypal accounts;
Independent Pilot has been very successful indeed and service is being extended to ZAP and other services as well I believe;

  Hi all,


  Is there someone following up the updating of Paypal accounts using MPESA? 


  Instead of Mpesa vs. Paypal, why not - "Integrate M~Pesa with PayPal" ? - See the thread on http://paypal.lithium.com/pdn/board/message?board.id=innovate&thread.id=475

    Honourable Members,
    I was just having a chat with a good friend who is a web developer over the issue of online payments. I realised paypal is common but the procedure and processes involved seem to be too complicated despite the fact that it is an important medium for online transactions globally. Does anyone has an idea of how we can encouarage local banks to interface with such systems to facilitate online transactions instead of the difficult route being undertaken currently, better still can mpesa be a viable option. They have an arrangement with pesa point which saved my neck on new year because of its efficiency can it be extended to facilitate online transactions international (say with Kenyans in diaspora
    Just curious

      A trick we used in O-Levels to "cram" formulas, make "words" shortened abbreviations for Chemistry, Geo, Bio, Hist, Maths etc.. It works wonders-- only remember "new word" only known to thyself and Hey Presto! UR genius;)
