Pay for Showmax with M-Pesa, from Ksh 299

Showmax has announced revamped prices of its mobile subscriptions bought and paid for via M-PESA. This will see customers enjoy lower prices on two Safaricom mobile data packages that come bundled with a 30-day Showmax Mobile subscription. 

The new, lower-priced deals are:

• Showmax Mobile + 1GB Safaricom data = Ksh 299 (down from Ksh 389)
• Showmax Pro Mobile + 3GB Safaricom data = Ksh 1299.

Following this move, which is exclusive to Safaricom customers, it is now easier for Kenyan streaming fans to pay for their Showmax subscription via M-Pesa while enjoying more entertainment for less.
