Absa Bank Kenya PLC provides banking services through branches, ATMs and agency banking locations across Kenya. The bank operates under the Absa name, following its change from Barclays Bank Kenya in February 2020. Customers looking for a branch can use the bank’s official search tool to confirm the nearest location, available services and contact details.
Find an Absa Bank branch or ATM
Use the Absa Kenya Find Us directory to search for branches or ATMs by town, neighbourhood or location. The bank’s online directory is the most practical source for a specific street address, branch availability and opening hours.
- Open Absa’s official branch and ATM locator.
- Enter your town, estate, street or preferred bank location.
- Review matching branches, cash machines or service points.
- Check the address and contact information for the selected location.
- Confirm operating hours and specialist services before travelling, particularly around public holidays.

Customers can search for towns such as Nairobi, Mombasa, Nakuru, Eldoret, Kisumu, Thika, Nyeri, Meru, Kakamega and Kitale. Specific branch availability should always be confirmed through the official locator.

What to carry when visiting an Absa branch
