Business to Business (B2B) Payments
The M-PESA Business-to-Business (B2B) Payment service lets your organization make payments to other businesses directly through M-PESA. To use this service, you’ll need an existing M-PESA shortcode from which the payment will be made.
You’ll be required to fill in the B2B application form, listing all your shortcodes for sending payments and the shortcodes of the businesses that will receive funds.
Before making a B2B payment, make sure your account has enough funds to complete the transaction.
B2B transactions fall under the following categories and can be done as single or bulk payments:
- Business Paybill – make payments to another Paybill account.
- Business Buy Goods – make payments to a Buy Goods till.
- B2B Float Movement – transfer float to another business shortcode (for example, from your agency head office or for bulk payments/B2C).
