How to Buy and Manage Telkom Kenya Bundles
Purchasing Telkom Kenya data bundles is straightforward from your phone. Just dial *544# and select your preferred bundle from the menu options. Confirm your choice and enter your T-Kash PIN to complete purchase. You can also buy bundles through the My Telkom app or website portal.
To pay for bundles, Telkom clients can use T-Kash, Telkom’s mobile money service. From your T-Kash menu, choose “Buy Airtime” then select your data bundle and enter your T-Kash PIN to confirm. You’ll receive an SMS confirming your successful bundle purchase.
Checking your remaining data balance is easy as well. Dial *544# and choose option 7, then select “Check Data Balance” and send. You can also check your data balance by dialing *100# and selecting option 7. The My Telkom portal also provides data balance details when logged into your account.
Can You Sambaza Telkom Data Bundles?
Unfortunately, transferring or “sambaza-ing” data bundles directly to other Telkom numbers is not possible at this time.
While Telkom used to allow bundle transfers through USSD code *180#, this feature has been discontinued. However, you can still transfer airtime credit to other Telkom numbers by dialing *140# from your phone. Recipients can use this airtime credit to buy data bundles themselves.
Get the Right Bundle for You
With many bundles available, you can tailor Telkom service to match your usage needs. Light users can opt for small daily or weekly bundles, while heavy data consumers can choose larger monthly Freedom bundles. Adding night data is perfect for late-night streaming.
Telkom’s combo deals provide an all-in-one solution for calling, texting and browsing. By understanding the latest Telkom Kenya data bundles and packages, you can stay affordably connected across Kenya in 2023.
