10 Cranes’ fans for Afcon as Airtel launches Sukuma Cash promotion

Ten lucky subscribers of Airtel Uganda stand a chance to win an all-expense paid trip to watch the Uganda Cranes at Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt.

Also, 22 customers and three agents will walk away with Shs500,000 daily upon sending money worth any amount in the new 90-day Airtel Money promotion dubbed Sukuma Cash.

In the promotion, announced on Thursday, subscribers sending money within the network will enjoy a major discount in tariffs.

The new tariffs have been streamlined up to 60 per cent with three prices respectively; Shs100, Shs500 and Shs1,000 across all bands effective today. The reduction applies to sending money (Person To Person).

According to the Airtel Uganda Managing Director, Mr. V.G. Somasekhar, the promotion is an addition to the convenience and instant solutions the platform offers especially during this Ramadan Season.

“Airtel Money subscribers can conveniently and instantly do so much more in a reliable and secure manner using their mobile phones. By lowering the cost of these transactions, an increased number of Ugandans will get access to affordable and basic financial services. We are as well simplifying alms giving (Zakah),” Mr Somasekhar said.

Mr Somasekhar explained that withdrawal tariffs among other fees, will remain unchanged during the promotion period.

One number will be used to contact winners; 0752600222 and participation does not require prior cash payments.
