Equitel has rolled out its fourth-generation (5G) network to boost internet banking, covering 370 locations countrywide.
These locations include towns such as Nairobi, Nakuru, and Kakamega, among others, before extending to densely populated areas like residential neighborhoods, shopping centers, and central business districts.
Equity Bank becomes the first financial institution in the country to adopt the 5G network in partnership with the host mobile network operator, Airtel Kenya.
“This milestone will ensure faster and more reliable connectivity that empowers businesses, communities, and individuals, enabling them to actively engage in the digital economy,” Equity Bank said.
Users must have 5G devices supported by a 4G-LTE SIM card to access the services.
