Mwangi has formerly launched the ThinSIM today in the launch of Equitel. They say the thin sim costs Ksh 600 to manufacturer but will be offered free of charge.

For free? d'oh!

If 5M users opt for the thinsim that's a cost of 3B. Who will foot that bill?

For a discount makes sense due to cost implications.

For free would only make sense with a cap. Says for the 1st 100K users to apply.

But thats 5M users that they will have potentially poached from Safaricom! What are the long term revenues they stand to gain from these 5M in the long term?

When a company is hooking you to cigarettes they do offer a lot of free samples .once nicotine gets fully installed into you system then you find yourself giving money generously to the same company that hooked you to free sample . It's free for now but once they enjoy the services that they can't do without then charges will be introduced later .that simple

Finserve CEO said thin SIM card is not free. It will come at a cost. Most likely 600 just like ATM card
