  • You can only use storo data till midnight of the same day.
  • Storo is available to only safaricom prepay customers excluding those on roaming.
  • Mpesa and Okoa charges does not contribute towards your daily storo target.
  • You cannot earn storo when you buy any Tunukiwa plan, since it is another reward and you cannot be rewarded twice.
  • You must hit your daily target before midnight.
Is Safaricom storo data worth it?
Since inception, storo has had one major undoing; it's short validity period.
You can only use the storo bonus till midnight of the same day, no matter what time you reached your target.
In order to limit increasing criticism, Safaricom has introduced two storo promotions.
For any storo target you hit, you will be awarded double the storo airtime. For example, if your daily storo target is ksh.1,00, you will be awarded 200 storo airtime.
Also, until you will be awarded 200MB free YouTube data each time you reach your daily target.
Despite these two attempts to re-ignite storo, it is clear that Safaricom doesn't want you to spend your storo airtime for data, and that is why the storo data bundles are so worthless as compared to using the storo airtime for calls.

How to check your Storo Balance.
To check your Storo Balance kindly follow the steps below:
  • Dial *460# on your Safaricom line.
  • Select option 2; "check my STORO Bonus balance".
