Airtel

Airtel Kenya is the second largest mobile network in Kenya in terms of its subscriber base. It trails behind the market leader Safaricom but edges out Telkom and the latest entrant, Faiba 4G by Jamii Telecom.

Despite Safaricom enjoying what many may consider a monopoly, Airtel has stood ground over the years. As testament to this fact, they’ve been launching new products and services all the while giving a fresh coat of paint on others.

As it’s to be expected, such changes bring with them new things top of which are USSD codes: the preferred medium through which networks allow subscribers to access their products and services.

Here is a comprehensive list of  Airtel Kenya Short codes.

Note: [Service] [USSD short code]

14. Zawadi Points*326#

15. Redeemed Airtime Balance*131*8#

16. Alerts*411#

17. Flash back*100#

Telkom Kenya

Telkom Kenya is the third largest mobile network in terms of subscriber base trailing behind Airtel and Safaricom.

Long before it could don its vibrant turquoise and yellow colours, Telkom used be in a classy black and orange costume. This was pre-2017 when it was still owned by Orange and used to go by the name Orange Kenya.

The change of ownership breathed some new life into the network in the way of a major rebrand. Fortunately the change was smooth and not much was expected from the old subscribers other than the 4G upgrade that would roll out a few months later.

Thus, most of the products and services that were available on Orange Kenya were left intact. Such is the case of the USSD Codes that are used to access these services. With that said, some new codes have made their entry over the past year.
