What is it?

Warid Pesa allows you to convert real money into electronic money (e-money) at any authorised Warid Pesa outlet. You can then transfer this e-money to others, pay for goods and services as well as settle accounts.


If you do not have a traditional bank account, Warid Pesa allows you to deposit cash into your Warid Pesa account and send e-money to other mobile users who can then convert the e-money back into cash. You can also convert the e-money in your Warid Pesa account back into cash at any time.
