Safaricom (NSE: SCOM) on Monday, June 21 partnered with the Trans Nzoia County Government to unveil an M-PESA cashless payment system for collecting county levies. Residents of Trans Nzoia County can now pay for parking, cess and market fees, among other levies on the system.

“We are delighted to enable digital lifestyles for the people of Trans Nzoia County through M-PESA. This will greatly enhance convenience for residents, enabling them to pay for county services wherever they are and at whatever time,” said Peter Ndegwa, CEO – Safaricom.

To pay for county services, Trans Nzoia residents will dial *818#, which gives them the option to choose among the different services.

The system can be used for making payment across all five sub-counties of Kitale Municipality, Cherengany, Kiminini, Saboti, and Kwanza.
