CryptoKenya is not the official website of any exchange, wallet, token project, bank, mobile-money provider or regulator. Names such as M-PESA, Safaricom, PayPal, Binance or Worldcoin are trademarks of their respective owners and are used only to identify the services we describe.
Not advice
Our guides explain how things work and what the risks are. They are not recommendations to buy or sell any crypto asset and they are not legal or tax advice. Your situation is unique — check with a qualified adviser where it matters.
Regulation in Kenya
Under the Virtual Asset Service Providers Act, 2025, businesses that provide crypto services in or from Kenya need a licence from the Central Bank of Kenya or the Capital Markets Authority. Platforms mentioned on this site may hold licences in other countries but may not be licensed in Kenya. Check the regulators’ registers before you deposit money.
Prices and data
Live prices come from CoinGecko’s public API and may be delayed or differ from the price on a given platform. When the live feed is unavailable, we show the last known rate with its date. M-Pesa charges are taken from Safaricom’s published tariff and may change.
Links to other websites
When we link to an exchange, a wallet or a news source, it is so you can check the information at the source. Those websites have their own terms, fees and privacy policies, and whether you open an account with any of them is entirely your decision.
