Enjoy Financial Inclusion With Yellow Card

Hurray! Mobile money is finally live in Kenya, and you can now use it to enjoy easy and faster instant deposits and withdrawals on Yellow Card. Interestingly, with this new update, you can now buy and sell bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies at the best rates and quickly with your mobile money account.

As you are aware, cryptocurrencies are becoming increasingly popular in Kenya. In a 2021 report, Kenya was 5th on the list of the top twenty countries that trade crypto. This analysis automatically placed Kenya first among African countries using bitcoin back then.

Kenyans love it when life is easy and simple, which is why Yellow Card continues to be loved by many crypto enthusiasts in Kenya. With Yellow Card, you don’t have to fear peer-to-peer scams, as we handle your purchase easily and smoothly at zero cost.

We are taking the soft life even further for you with the launch of MoMo, as we offer a faster and easier trading experience for you to buy and sell crypto in Kenya.

Trade Bitcoin in Kenya with Yellow Card

Buying and selling bitcoin in Kenya on the Yellow Card platform used to require using standard bank transfers alone. While this process still works fine, we noticed that some of our customers preferred the flexibility of using mobile money.

Knowing how much we value our customers, we kept working hard to fix that and are happy to share this good news. With the addition of Mobile Money services, you can do more crypto trading and purchases with your MoMo accounts. 

Moreover, with the MoMo services, you can sell their bitcoin and make direct withdrawals in Kenyan shillings (KES) without going through the stress of queuing up at the banks.
