Safaricom has revamped its home fibre packages in 2024 while maintaining the same rates. The company has done this in response to Starlink’s push and growing popularity in kenya. The telco has introduced a new 1Gbps (Gigabit per second), the highest in the country so far for home internet. This is perfect for gamers or anyone who needs ultrafast internet speeds.
Besides the 1Gbps platinum package, safaricom has also increased the speeds for all its existing packages. The extra speeds range from 5Mbps for the cheapest Bronze (10Mbps) package to 400Mbps extra for the Diamond (100Mbps) package.
