  • Online Bus Apps in Kenya - SWVL And Little Shuttle
    Have you tried out the “online matatus”?
    Egyptian company Swvl and Safaricom-backed Little stirred Kenya’s transportation industry at the start of the year with the introduction of bus services that are outside the norm in the country.
    Is there a future for such services? What are the challenges?
    Dickson, Nick, Kaluka and Chenze explored these in the latest episode of the 24Bit podcast.

  • Mobile Money and Mobile Banking Transaction Rates in Kenya
    Do you use mobile money services?
    Okay, what kind of a question is that? Kenya is very synonymous with mobile money services. Driven by the explosion of M-Pesa, Safaricom's mobile money transfer service that is now a platform that is emulated and replicated all around the world, mobile money is to Kenyans what credit and debit cards are to the Western world.
    With it, however, has come the cost of the convenience it brings, a cost that many, especially after repeated moves to tax the service by the government have resulted in transaction and related fees going up, feel is getting out of hand, if it hasn't, already.
    Banks, the financial institutions that M-Pesa one-upped to win the hearts and minds of Kenyans and boost financial inclusion in the country, haven't been left behind. Building on the scraps and crumbs falling from M-Pesa's table, they have quickly mastered the art of exorbitantly billing their client base for any transactions between their accounts and their mobile wallets.
    For how long can this go on?
    Nick, Kaluka and Chenze explore this contentious topic in the first 24bit podcast episode of 2020.
    Listen along!

  • Which Way Huawei?
    One Sunday morning in May, we woke up to news that Google had suspended Huawei's Android license throwing into disarray the Chinese device maker's plans to dominate the global smartphone market. Soon after, other companies followed Google's lead and severed ties with Huawei.
    What does this mean for the company and the millions of consumers using its products around the world? Is this the end of Huawei or does the embattled Chinese company still stand a chance?
    Nick, Kaluka, Dickson and Chenze take a look in this episode of the 24bit podcast.
