Between 2007 and 2013, through the then Kenya Communications Commission’s intervention, call termination rates dropped by 84 percent, and by 65 percent between 2007-2010. The rates were last lowered in 2015 from Sh1.44 per minute to Sh0.99 per minute.
In its quest to make call rates all the more affordable to Kenyans, the Communications Authority of Kenya (CA) on December 22, 2021, issued a statement fixing the Mobile Termination Rates (MTRs) and Fixed Termination Rates (FTRs) at Sh0.12 per minute from Sh0.99 per minute, a reduction of 87.7 percent, with effect from January 1, 2022.
