How to buy USDT in Kenya with M-Pesa

What’s different here

M-Pesa mobile money is the rail — most on-ramps settle straight to and from M-Pesa. Regional on-ramps and P2P cover much of East Africa. New VASP regulations are close to implementation, so expect the licensing landscape to keep shifting.

Common ways to pay: M-Pesa · Airtel Money · Card · P2P
