Today it is easy to buy airtime from the comfort of your house simply from M-pesa. However, what happens if you don’t have money in your M-pesa? How do you communicate with your business partner, employees, friends, and family? This can be a serious problem if you have an emergency and need to communicate urgently. Now you can buy airtime with Fuliza by simply using your M-pesa account.
According to Safaricom’s website, “Fuliza is a continuous overdraft service that allows you to complete M-PESA transactions when you have insufficient funds.” In other words, Fuliza allows M-PESA customers to continue using their M-PESA transactions when they do not have sufficient funds to complete their transactions on their M-PESA account. Therefore, to use Fuliza, all you need to do is transact normally on M-PESA and if you have insufficient funds, Fuliza M-PESA will cover the shortfall.
