Responding to the issues raised, Kenya Railways confirmed that the booking had been completed despite it not generating a ticket number.

According to the corporations, when the system fails to generate a ticket number, passengers can use the account number indicated in the mobile money paymen t confirmation message as the booking confirmation number.

“Your booking was successful. The account number in your mobile money confirmation message is your booking confirmation number,” Kenya Railways said.

Passengers who encounter a similar situation can use the booking confirmation number together with the mobile phone number used to make the payment to print their ticket at any Madaraka Express station.

The clarification means passengers who make successful payments but do not immediately receive a separate ticket number should check their mobile money confirmation message before assuming that the booking has failed.

Madaraka Express passengers can book SGR tickets by visiting the Kenya Railways Booking Portal to choose their travel details, select seats, and pay via mobile money.
