Pakakumi
Pakakumi's official M-Pesa Paybill number is 547717. Recognising it matters mainly for one reason: your M-Pesa confirmation SMS will show this number when a deposit goes through, giving you a quick way to verify the payment actually reached Pakakumi rather than a clone or lookalike request.
Pakakumi M-Pesa withdrawals typically process within minutes after approval. Most players receive funds directly to their registered Safaricom number instantly during business hours. Withdrawal times may vary slightly based on Safaricom network traffic and account verification status. Check pakakumi.com for current processing estimates.
The official Pakakumi Paybill number is 547717. This number is used exclusively for M-Pesa deposits and withdrawals via STK Push. Always verify Paybill 547717 on your M-Pesa confirmation SMS to confirm funds reached the correct account. Never send money to alternative Paybill numbers or Till Numbers claiming to be Pakakumi.
You Usually Won't Type the Paybill In Yourself
Pakakumi's deposit flow uses M-Pesa STK Push: choose an amount on the deposit screen, and a payment prompt is pushed directly to your phone for you to confirm with your M-Pesa PIN. This automatically routes the payment to Paybill 547717 and links it to your account, so there's no manual Paybill or account-number entry step in the normal flow — and no chance of a typo sending money to the wrong place.
Why the Paybill Number Still Matters
- Confirming a deposit reached Pakakumi: check your M-Pesa confirmation SMS for Paybill 547717 if you want to double-check where a payment went.
- Spotting a scam request: if anyone asks you to pay a different Paybill or till number "to unlock a bonus" or "verify your account," it isn't Pakakumi. Genuine deposits only ever go through 547717 via the STK Push flow inside pakakumi.com.
Payment Method: M-Pesa Only
Pakakumi doesn't accept cards, other mobile wallets, or bank transfers — M-Pesa is the only channel for both deposits and withdrawals. Our complete M-Pesa payments guide covers deposits, withdrawals, limits, and what to do if a deposit doesn't reflect, in full.
If a deposit doesn't show up after confirming the STK Push prompt, don't try to resolve it by manually paying the Paybill separately — see the troubleshooting checklist first.
