Can I use M-PESA or make traditional calls with my WestESIM in Kenya?

Updated April 22, 2026

WestESIM provides premium data-only connectivity in Kenya, meaning it does not include a local Kenyan phone number. Therefore, you will not be able to use services like M-PESA (Kenya's popular mobile money system) or make traditional voice calls to local numbers directly. However, for all your communication needs, you can seamlessly use data-driven applications such as WhatsApp, FaceTime, Skype, or Google Meet for messaging and calls. Our high-speed data ensures you stay connected with your contacts and leverage internet-based services effectively throughout your stay.
