Best app I've downloaded in ages, but needs a few improvements it keeps going off, even its direct code. Could you also please be notifying customers when there will be an upgrade, its frustrating not being able to access funds esp during an emergency. Please if possible add a paybill code

The App is worse now Keep crashing all the time displaying " SOMETHING WENT WRONG TRY LATER" NO2 inside the App you can't send to other Mpesa customers you must withdraw to your mpesa then send from mpesa so it's double COST for transactions charges Today even withdrawing to my MPESA isn't working i was forced to use USSD to do transaction it need serious upgrades for now it's worse App in Kenya 🇰🇪
