Safaricom Home Fibre; Packages, Cost and How to get Connected

Safaricom Home fibre is making homes more fun and great for work and learning. It allows you to have fast, reliable and unlimited internet access from the comfort of your home.

Home Internet is growing very fast in Kenya. Many companies including Safaricom, Access Kenya, Zuku, Jamii Telecom and Telkom Kenya are trying to Grab their Market Share.

Safaricom’s main competitor in the fibre to the home is Zuku which has a very popular triple-play product that combines internet, telephone and TV. It is rumoured that Safaricom might launch a new version of the Safaricom Big Box, with streaming support, which would help it in its quest to gain market share.

Safaricom Home Fiber Packages and Cost.

There are 4 Safaricom Home Fibre packages designed to meet your everyday work, education and entertainment needs.Customers have a choice of different Fibre to Home internet packages — starting from as low as Kshs 2,500 per month with speeds of 5Mbps to Kshs 9,999 at 40 Mbps per month.

*Note that VAT applies in the respective percentage which might have changed from time to time.  

How to Get  Safaricom Home Fiber Connection

To get connected  to the service, Simply dial *400# and select the “Get Safaricom Home Fibre” and follow the simple steps.

You will then get a call back from Safaricom within 48 hours. The Safaricom team will create an account for you and you will  be advised to make payment to your account.  Your  connection will be set up within 48 hours after payment.

Once you register, you will be given a router and access to credentials that will enable you to have both Wireless and LAN access, with no installation charges. You only have to pay for the month you are subscribed to.

Safaricom Home Fibre: Packages & Prices for 2022

Safaricom Home Fibre is one of the top home internet services in Kenya. Discover all Safaricom Home Fibre packages and prices in this guide.

Safaricom Home Fibre

Kenya’s largest telecom company Safaricom is the provider of Home Fibre . However, this internet service is only available in several regions. These regions are Nairobi, Coast, Central, Rift Valley, and Nyanza Western.

When you register for Home Fibre, you will get unlimited, fast, and reliable internet. Furthermore, Safaricom offers a speed checker feature that allows users to find out the internet speed they need for their homes. The speed checker gauges your internet speed needs based on the number of devices you wish to connect to the internet, the number of people that will be using the internet, how you will be using the internet, and the platforms you use.

To send a connection request, simply fill the form on the website and wait for feedback. When Safaricom gets back to you, they will give you an account number. Thereafter, you will pay for your preferred package, and a Safaricom representative will visit your home to install the internet.

Home Fibre customers get a Wi-Fi router, username, and password to enable them to access the internet. Also, users get the opportunity to create usernames and passwords of their choice.

Safaricom Home Fibre Packages

Safaricom offers four internet packages namely bronze, silver, gold, and diamond. Below are the prices.

As the cheapest Home Fibre package, bronze provides internet speeds of 5Mbps at Sh2,900 per month. With this bandwidth, users can browse the internet, use social media, stream entertainment sites like Netflix, and watch YouTube videos.

However, this package is only suitable to use with about three devices. That means that a home with more than three devices and more people will need faster internet speeds.

The silver package offers faster internet speeds, making it ideal for multiple-device streaming and video downloads. Moreover, 10Mbps can support CCTV cameras, HD TV programming, and SD movie and music streaming.

When you buy this package, you will get 20Mbps, UHD movie and music streaming, multiple-device streaming, and UHD TV programming. Furthermore, the gold package can support CCTV devices, fast web browsing, and super-fast video downloads.

The fastest and most expensive internet package is appropriate for a large family that is downloading videos often. With 40 Mbps, users will enjoy hyper-fast video downloads, UHD TV programming, multiple-device streaming, and fast web browsing.

The diamond package also supports CCTV devices and UHD music and movie streaming.

How to Pay for Safaricom Home Fibre

There are two ways to pay for your Safaricom Home Fibre package. Firstly, you can use the M-PESA pay bill number 150501. To use this payment method, follow these steps:

• Open the M-PESA menu
• Click “Lipa na M-PESA”
• Select “Pay Bill”
• Enter the pay bill number 150501
• Type your Home Fibre account number
• Input the amount you are paying and your M-PESA PIN
• Confirm the transaction and hit okay

Secondly, you can utilise the USSD code*400#. After dialing this number, select “Manage subscriptions” and choose the package you are paying for and proceed to pay through M-PESA.

Thirdly, you can pay for your Home Fibre package with Bonga points. To do this, take these steps:

• Select “Manage your subscriptions”
• Choose your account
• Next, select “Renew subscription”
• Choose the account number you are renewing

Note : There are no Safaricom MiFi unlimited bundles; the sale of unlimited bundles was discontinued. However, the Ksh. 5,000 and Ksh. 10,000 data plans , customers will continue accessing the internet at 3Mbps after depleting their data.

How do I set up Safaricom MiFi?

The MiFi router is a simple device, but first-time users can find it challenging to use. Here are the steps to follow to set up your Safaricom Mi-Fi.

1. Insert the Safaricom sim card

The sim card slot is under the battery. Remove the back cover and the battery, and insert the sim card.

Note : The username and the password are usually underneath the battery hatch. You should write or type this information somewhere because you’ll need it later.

2. Turn on the MiFi router

Click on the power button (it has a power sign) on the front of the router. After turning it on, connect your device to the MiFi router. Go to the WiFi settings on your device, such as your phone or laptop. Find the username and then enter the password to make a connection.

Everything about Safaricom’s 4G+ Router – Should you get it?

If you’re looking for a home internet solution, you know you have two options. Wired. Or Wireless. While the wired solution is always cheaper and offers unlimited connectivity with no caps on how much one can use, it is not available everywhere. That’s why you only find say Safaricom Home Fibre, or JTL, or Zuku in certain towns, or suburban settings. It takes time to lay down the fibre cables and pull the connection to different homes. That’s why for most Kenyans, the wireless solution is the only way to go.

Wireless, however, has its own restrictions. Or rather, shortcomings. It is a limited resource. Meaning, there are only so many bytes that can be sent per second. Which means if everyone has access to the resource in an unlimited manner, there will be congestion. That’s why there needs to be control of the resource. And this is done in terms of buying bundles or limiting speeds after a certain amount of data has been used.

Safaricom has both wired and wireless home internet solutions. Their wired Home Fibre solution recently beat Zuku Fibre in the number of homes installed. There are different packages which offer unlimited access. I use the KES. 3,999 which gives me 10Mbps (currently doubled to 20Mbps) without any restrictions throughout. Setting up is free, and all you do is call 400 and get them to install it in your house – but you must live in an apartment/area where the fibre is already setup .

The company also has wireless solutions in the following forms:

• The usual 4G network you can access on your phone, and buy data through *544#
• The Safaricom Big Box 2 Android TV – which I reviewed here that offers both smart TV access, and home internet through the 4G embedded SIM card.
• Safaricom internet for business which I’ve seen some people install in their homes, but is pretty expensive at KES. 5,499 for 5Mbps, and KES. 14,999 for 10Mbps. It is also hard to get this installed at your home because of the requirements, including a KRA Pin, and much more.
• The new Safaricom 4G+ WiFi Router.

The Home 4G+ Router:

Of course, coming from the explanation in paragraph two, you know there definitely are certain restrictions with this solution. Let’s see the initial cost of getting this solution:

• First, you need to buy the router and its SIM card from Safaricom. That costs KES. 11,000 for some reason. I think this is the most expensive 4G router in the market. The Airtel Home internet router costs KES. 7,500 .
• You should only make this purchase after making sure you live in an area where the Safaricom network performs very well, so as not to get bad speeds. Safaricom has promised to have 100% 4G coverage by end of the year anyway.
• Also, since the router needs to be connected to power, you need to have a setup where it can be placed in the house.
• Also, you should only get the router if you believe either 3Mbps or 5Mbps is enough for your workflow ( I’ll explain this below ).

Once you have the router in your house, you have to choose between Safaricom’s packages. There are two main packages that both offer unlimited internet based on fair usage. I didn’t know this myself after checking out the website, because what’s listed there is bundles. However, Safaricom has explained via a Twitter conversation that the two packages listed also determine speed.

So for the 100GB bundle, you get 3Mbps speeds. And for the 200GB bundle, you get 5Mbps speeds. ( Explanation here: your speed will be limited to 3Mbps or 5Mbps even though 4G/LTE speeds can reach over 30Mbps on the Safaricom network ) AND, once you use up the 100GB or 200GB, these speeds are then further capped down to 1Mbps, in what’s called fair usage policy.

The prices are set as so

• 100GB for KES. 3,500 – you get 3Mbps for the first 100GB, then 1MBps later on.
• 200GB for KES. 5,000 – you get 5Mbps for the first 200GB, then 1Mbps later on.

Update: The bundles are not unlimited according to this shared information:

Thoughts on this:

I called the Airtel router dumb because it was big, not portable, plus it didn’t offer any unlimited access. It was also expensive in terms of initial acquisition cost. Here’s the dilemma now with this Safaricom router. It is more expensive than Airtel’s. It is also not very portable. However, Safaricom approaches things differently in three ways:

• First, you are using the internet at certain speeds, not the full 4G/LTE speeds.
• Secondly, there is unlimited access even after the bundles are used up, even though at slower speeds. ( According to the new information updated, this isn’t true )
• Thirdly, there’s no other 4G plan from Safaricom that competes with the router’s plans.

Airtel’s router competed directly with Airtel’s own UnlimiNet plans as I explained in that article. With Safaricom, there’s nothing that directly competes with the 100GB or 200GB offers which remember are limited to 3mbps and 5mpbs respectively. Also, on Airtel, 40GB was KES. 2,000, 70GB was KES. 3,000 while 100GB was KES. 4,000. Though here you could access full 4G/LTE speeds, it ended up feeling quite expensive given there was no internet access after the bundles were used up.

However, this isn’t to say I recommend Safaricom’s router. Nope . The KES. 11,000 initial cost is just too much for a router that you’ll never use once you realise the plans may be either too slow, or too expensive for you, or that you’re better off using normal bundles until something better comes up.

This table breaks down everything you need to know about the Safaricom 4G+ Home Internet router compared to other Home Internet solutions:

If the initial cost of the 4G router was something around KES. 4,000, that would be somewhat fairer. Compare those prices to Faiba4G’s prices which although not unlimited, work better because you’re not capped to a certain speed of normal use, the Faiba4G prices are way fairer. However, of course, Faiba4G isn’t everywhere. Meaning you’ll need to make do with what’s available. And perhaps what’s available isn’t too pocket friendly.

If you have the 4G+ Router, or if you’re considering getting one, please let us know why it works for you, or what the experience has been like. Personally, I would suggest to everyone living in places where both wired connections or Faiba4G aren’t available, to use something like the Giga bundles from Safaricom, or the Amazing Bundles from Airtel which offer good value. I don’t know about Telkom 4G unfortunately. Share your thoughts down below.

This was a more sensible option when they used to give the router for free, which is when I got mine. I never paid the 11k initial fee.

How do I load the router with 3500 to get 100GB

Very informative article. Thanks for your time

I bought a router from their shop in Eld. The speed was quite fair but not tge expected speed for doing stuff like business. Tgey increased the price for 3mbps to KES. 3700

When happens if I Skip a month without pay and using the router? When I come back to will I need to clear the last months not paid though I didn’t use ?

I ordered safaricom 4g router from their website last year October and was called by some lady in Thika that was selling the routers and simcards. I bought the safaricom 4g router and got it delivered. The speeds were not great but were usable, until the router suddenly went dead on February of this year. Customer care can’t help and the lady is not picking calls. Now I’m stuck with a 10k router and a costly plan going to waste. Can’t recommend.

Did you get a help

Take prepaid

So far, I’m yet to find an efficient router or efficient internet solution for that matter. The country we live in… Nice article though.

Is this router 4G+ really? Can’t find that information anywhere.

Very informative, still reading more

Nice informative read. Telcom 4G is not that effective. If you buy the 30gb bundle, which is 1k, they only allow you to use 1gb per day, after that you buy another bundle until 1200am…Am currently on that bundle and normally gets depleted by around 10am. Am now thinking of getting connected to Dimensions Data(formerly access Kenya) I have a neighbor who uses it and claims it’s reliable. I don’t know if you’ve used it before?

The writer of this article . You have a problem understanding english. The 4G band can hit 100Mbps. Safaricom will sell you 100GB of data which you can browse at speeds of 3Mbps(actually 2.9 from my router)

I spoke to a store technician, and the 5Mbps is bandwidth provided, not speeds.. speeds you get are still up to 100Mbps, and go lower if downloading big files, or many users downloading at the same time

Hello, does this mean when I check my internet speed on Google it will be higher than the 3mbps they put there ?

Wow I’m so glad I read this. It’s pretty poor for safaricom not to advertise the speed throttling more obviously. Thanks!

Is that speed in megabytes per second or megabits per second the one where you get around 100kbps on your phone when given 1megabits per second?

Privacy is built in.

Online privacy isn’t just something you should hope for — it’s something you should expect. That’s why Safari comes with industry-leading privacy protection technology built in, including Intelligent Tracking Prevention that identifies trackers and helps prevent them from profiling or following you across the web. Upgrading to iCloud+ gives you even more privacy protections, including the ability to sign up for websites and services without having to share your personal email address.

Intelligent Tracking Prevention

Safari stops trackers in their tracks.

What you browse is no one’s business but your own. Safari has built‑in protections to help stop websites and data-collection companies from watching and profiling you based on your browsing activity. Intelligent Tracking Prevention uses on-device intelligence to help prevent cross-site tracking and stops known trackers from using your IP address — making it incredibly difficult to learn who you are and what you’re interested in.

Privacy Report

Safari makes it simple to see how your privacy is protected on all the websites you visit. Click the Privacy Report button in your toolbar for a snapshot of cross-site trackers currently prevented from profiling you on the website you’re visiting. Or view a weekly Privacy Report to see how Safari protects you as you browse over time.

Customization

Putting the you in url..

Safari is more customizable than ever. Organize your tabs into Tab Groups so it’s easy to go from one interest to the next. Set a custom background image and fine-tune your browser window with your favorite features — like Reading List, Favorites, iCloud Tabs, and Siri Suggestions. And third-party extensions for iPhone, iPad, and Mac let you do even more with Safari, so you can browse the way you want across all your devices.

Save and organize your tabs in the way that works best for you. Name your Tab Groups, edit them, and switch among them across devices. You can also share Tab Groups — making planning your next family trip or group project easier and more collaborative.

Safari Extensions add functionality to your browser to help you explore the web the way you want. Find and add your favorite extensions in the dedicated Safari category on the App Store.

Smart Tools

Designed to help your work flow..

Built-in tools create a browsing experience that’s far more immersive, intuitive, and immediate. Get detailed information about a subject in a photo with just a click, select text within any image, instantly translate an entire web page, and quickly take notes wherever you are on a site — without having to switch apps.

Notes is your go-to app to capture any thought. And with the new Quick Note feature, you can instantly jot down ideas as you browse websites without having to leave Safari.

Translation

Translate entire web pages between 18 languages with a single click. You can also translate text in images and paused video without leaving Safari.

Interact with text in any image on the web using functions like copy and paste, lookup, and translate. 7

Visual Look Up

Quickly learn more about landmarks, works of art, breeds of dogs, and more with only a photo or an image you find online. 8 And easily lift the subject of an image from Safari, remove its background, and paste it into Messages, Notes, or other apps.

Surf safe and sound.

Strong security protections in Safari help keep you safe. Passkeys introduce a safer way to sign in. iCloud Keychain securely stores and autofills passkeys and passwords across all your devices. Safari also notifies you when it encounters suspicious websites and prevents them from loading. Because it loads each web page in a separate process, any harmful code is always confined to a single browser tab so it won’t crash the entire application or access your data. And Safari automatically upgrades sites from HTTP to the more secure HTTPS when available.

Passkeys introduce a more secure and easier way to sign in. No passwords required.

Passkeys are end-to-end encrypted and safe from phishing and data leaks, and they are stronger than all common two-factor authentication types. Thanks to iCloud Keychain, they work across all your Apple devices, and they even work on non-Apple devices.

Learn more about passkeys

Wallet make checkout as easy as lifting a finger.

With AutoFill, you can easily fill in your previously saved credit card information from the Wallet app during checkout. Your credit card details are never shared, and your transactions are protected with industry-leading security.

Same Safari. Different device.

Safari works seamlessly and syncs your passwords, bookmarks, history, tabs, and more across Mac, iPad, iPhone, and Apple Watch. And when your Mac, iOS, or iPadOS devices are near each other, they can automatically pass what you’re doing in Safari from one device to another using Handoff. You can even copy images, video, or text from Safari on your iPhone or iPad, then paste into another app on your nearby Mac — or vice versa.

When you use Safari on multiple devices, your tabs carry over from one Apple device to another. So you can search, shop, work, or browse on your iPhone, then switch to your iPad or Mac and pick up right where you left off.

Save web pages you want to read later by adding them to your Reading List. Then view them on any of your iCloud-connected devices — even if you’re not connected to the internet.

iCloud Keychain securely stores your user names, passkeys, passwords, and credit card numbers and keeps them up to date on your trusted devices. So you can easily sign in to your favorite websites — as well as apps on iOS and iPadOS — and quickly make online purchases.

Designed for developers.

Deep WebKit integration between Mac hardware and macOS allows Safari to deliver the fastest performance and the longest battery life of any browser on the platform, while supporting modern web standards for rich experiences in the browser. WebKit in macOS Ventura includes optimizations that enable even richer browsing experiences, and give developers more control over styling and layout — allowing for more engaging content.

Make Safari your default browser

Customize your start page, view your browsing privacy report, monitor your saved passwords, view your tabs across all your devices, read the safari user guide, get safari support.
