A good entrepreneur knows how to save money, no? After Okoa Jahazi and MPesa, Safaricom has now launched FLEX. The Safaricom FLEX plan will give you a cheaper option of accessing internet, making calls and sending SMS all on one package.
How it works
You can now conduct your business on your phone using a Safaricom FLEX Unit, allowing you to save big on airtime. The product is available to both PrePay and PostPay customers. One FLEX Unit will give you 3MBs of browsing, 3SMS and 20 seconds of talk time. 1 minute of talk time is equivalent to only 3 FLEX Units.
To purchase units, dial *100# or *200#. You can also purchase some for your family and friends. Safaricom, itself, will be giving you free FLEX units for every chargeable MPesa transaction you conduct.
FLEX Bundle plan
Safaricom FLEX Bundles come in three plans. You can subscribe to a daily, weekly or monthly auto-renewal plan. Dial *100# or *200# to subscribe to one of these:
| Plan | Price | FLEX Units |
| Daily 99 | 99 | 115 |
| Weekly 599 | 599 | 700 |
| Monthly 2499 | 2,499 | 3100 |
