Kenya mobile data guide

The five mobile providers identified in the CA sector statistics report for Q3 FY 2025/26.

Local prices use Kenyan shilling (KES)

Start with the right task

Afri Data Cost keeps operator facts, practical instructions and bundle comparisons separate. This prevents a support code from being mistaken for a price claim and makes the evidence easier to check.

Providers in the latest checked regulator snapshot

This directory reflects the scope and reporting period described by the named regulator source. It is not a claim about every telecom licence, coverage area or service type in Kenya.

Freshness and scope

Market snapshot (Q3 FY 2025/26) checked: 4 August 2026

Operator access methods are reviewed on a shorter cycle than general guides. Bundle prices use the strictest threshold and remain absent from rankings when current evidence is incomplete.

  • The CA report is a point-in-time regulatory snapshot and provider status must be rechecked when it exceeds the freshness window.
  • Equitel's official pages did not expose a dedicated data-balance USSD code in the research pass.
  • USSD paths may vary by prepaid, postpaid, SIM Toolkit or app account state.
  • No bundle prices are published locally until each price, allowance, restriction and validity has been rechecked against an official source.
