1. What is a Business Tune?

The Business Tune Ring Back Service is provided by Bluewater Group Limited on Safaricom Limited’s network. It is a service on which a Corporate or SME jingle is played to calling parties as they wait for their calls to be received, instead of the standard Ringback or other forms of Ringback tones. They are paid for.

2. How does it work?

You will be required to either submit your already done 30 second jingle for review using the email This email address is being protected from spambots.
