Kenya’s second-largest telco, Airtel Kenya, with over 20.2 million subscribers, has launched a “Data ImeData” promotion, seemingly to entice customers to buy its data products as the mobile data competition in the local market continues to escalate.
In a press statement seen by TechBooth, Airtel Kenya’s weekly and monthly data customers can receive up to 50% more data for the same price in their Christmas promotion, with price points ranging from KES 50 to KES 1,000.
The Amazing Monthly 250 bundle has dropped in price from KES 300 to KES 250, while data allocation remains unchanged.
Customer benefits
- Extended bundle validity when another bundle is purchased before the current one expires or through the auto-renew option.
- Free WhatsApp access
- Ability to gift bundles to other Airtel users
