Kenyans can now use the Hustler Fund to pay their Social Health Authority premiums after the government updated the loan scheme to add the option
This is after many Kenyans received SMS notifications outlining how to pay for SHA contributions through the Lipa Pole Pole option using the Hustler Fund
In simple terms, the government has enabled Kenyans to borrow from the Hustler Fund to finance their SHA premiums, easing the burden of paying the annual contributions upfront especially for those in the informal sector
To iuse this service, there are two ways. One of the ways is to use the USSD code *254* to access the Hustler menu
Once on the menu, proceed to option 4, labelled Lipa Pole Pole. There will be a pop up menu indicating your SHA annual premium.
