Quote:Kenyan banks Thursday morning launched a mobile money platform that will allow customers to transfer up to about Sh1 million in a single transaction.
PesaLink is jointly owned and operated by banks through Integrated Payment Services Limited (IPSL), a subsidiary of the Kenya Bankers’ Association (KBA).
“The system will enable users to transact as low as Sh10 and as much as Sh999,999 across the banking system,” said KBA chief executive Mr Habil Olaka. http://www.businessdaily...15130-dwdo6sz/index.html

Registrar IANA ID: 146 KBA didn't bother checking if the domain was available before they settled on using the name Pesalink. thanks for the clarification, info on the same then seems a bit hard to come by, they must be relying on the member banks to advice the clients on the workings, but from what I have read about its working it seems very similar to the above pesalink system.

Code:https://ipsl.co.ke/pesalink/ Seems they (IPSL) have set a base on which individual banks are to build on. - first point on how to use the pesalink service is listed as Access your bank using your preferred device/ channelSite very vague on key data like cost of funds transfers. Live and learn; and don’t forget, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

This pesalink looks like a monumental failure, as expected! Now its free for 2 months, telling us how useless it is. Main issue is stupid banks have limited transfer to 70k...when it can handle upto 1m. Self defeating!! Business opportunities are like buses,there's always another one coming
