Safaricom and Pesapal have partnered to introduce two new convenient ways for customers to pay using M-PESA at Pesapal point-of-sale machines: by tapping their phone or scanning a QR code.

• This partnership allows payments by tapping a smartphone (using NFC) or by scanning a QR code displayed on the Pesapal machine.
• Key organizations involved are Safaricom, Kenya's leading telecommunications company, and Pesapal, an independent payment company.
• This integration aims to streamline the payment process, reducing the need to manually input till numbers or amounts, with the Tap-to-Pay feature requiring the My OneApp.
