Codes To Increase Fuliza Limit, Do They Really Exist?
Codes to increase fuliza limit are some of the most widely promoted services especially on social media platforms such as Facebook, Telegram and Tiktok.
This is nothing unusual considering that the Fuliza service launched through the partnership of Safaricom and NCBA in January 2019 has managed to add 17 million customers to its subscriber base as of December 2022.
By functionality, Fuliza operates as an overdraft service that facilitates the completion of transactions initiated via the Lipa Na MPesa or Buy Goods options in the event of insufficient funds within your MPesa wallet.
Besides the merchant options above, Fuliza also covers airtime purchases, individual money transfers as well as withdrawals at MPesa agents.
To become eligible and utilize the fuliza service is as simple as holding an active MPesa subscription then dialing the fuliza code *234# then opting into the service.

However, the initial fuliza limit may not always be adequate to cover financial demands, thus increasing the fuliza limit may become a viable option especially for individuals who frequently rely on the service.
