Why Kenyans track the ETH to KES rate
The leading smart-contract asset
Ethereum runs the largest ecosystem of tokens and apps in crypto, so ETH is one of the most tracked assets after Bitcoin.
Priced by the market, not the dollar
Ether can rise or fall sharply. The KES figure reflects the live global price, so it changes far more than a stablecoin rate.
Buy and cash out with M-Pesa
Fund an Ethereum purchase from M-Pesa in KES, or sell and receive shillings straight to M-Pesa.
Live indicative rate
This page refreshes the Ether price often so the shilling value you see is close to the market.
Many networks, one value
ETH and tokens settle across networks. The KES value tracks the asset; only the network fee differs on withdrawal.
Protected by Coinwaka
Transaction PIN, 2FA, and a reconciled ledger protect every buy and sell.
Rate, spread and fees
The figure on this page is an indicative mid-market rate. Your actual buy or sell rate includes a small spread, and any payout fee is shown in full before you confirm. Coinwaka never adds hidden charges to the rate after you commit.

- Only buy or sell through Coinwaka. Never send ETH or M-Pesa off platform to a stranger promising a better rate.
- Ether is volatile. Only commit what you can afford to hold through price swings.
- Confirm the network and address before withdrawing ETH, since a wrong network or address can lose funds.
- Set a transaction PIN, turn on 2FA, and never share an OTP or your M-Pesa PIN.
