Airtel Kenya Tubonge Minute bundles: Here’s How to Subscribe

Safaricom continues to dominate the telecom market in Kenya as it commands the majority market share. However, the competition is also stepping up, offering decent offers and packages to customers and winning new subscribers.

Today, we look at an offer from Airtel Kenya that will no doubt save you money if your situation allows for it.

What is Airtel Tubonge?

Tubonge is slang for ‘Let’s talk’. As such, Airtel Tubonge describes a voice package that allows subscribers to talk to their hearts’ content, all while not spending a small fortune for it.

This package allows Airtel subscribers to make ‘free’ Airtel to Airtel calls. I say ‘free’ because this is capped at 100 on-net minutes per day.

So how much does this offer cost? Well, the table below breaks down how much you will spend on this offer daily, weekly, or monthly.
