What Is the Zuku Paybill Number?
Zuku offers several Paybill numbers, and the choice depends on the service you want to pay for (whether it’s satellite TV or home fiber) and how you choose to pay. Concerning the latter part, Zuku allows you to make payments through mobile money (MPESA, Equitel, or Airtel), Eazzy Banking App, M-Banking, in-person bank payments, and direct debit.
Let’s discuss all these options:
Zuku Paybill Number for TV Kenya
The Paybill number for Zuku TV payments depends on your mobile money option, and you can opt for MPESA, Equitel, or Airtel.
