UBA launches reward scheme for electronic channels customers

By on December 2, 2014

United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc has announced incentives to encourage its customers to use electronic channels for their transactions in
December.

Tagged: “UBA Cashless December,” the initiative according to a statement from the bank is aimed at encouraging non-cash transactions, in line with the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN’s) cashless policy.
It explained that beginning from today to December 31 2014, its customers that carry out transactions on its U-Mobile, U-Direct or pay with their cards on the web and PoS would have a chance to win prizes.

In addition, the bank stated that cardholders who use its ATM value-added services such as bill payment, airtime top up and funds transfer are also eligible.
It listed the prizes to be won to include iPhone 6, airtime for phones, movie tickets, and shopping vouchers.
These incentives are for new and existing UBA customers.
“Going cashless during this festive period is not only convenient, but it also enhances your personal safety and protects your hard earned money,” the bank’s Divisional Head of e-Banking, Dr. Yinka Adedeji
explained.

He also noted that “going cashless means customers abstaining from all forms of cash transactions and embracing e-Banking.
“UBA’s highly secure mobile banking platform, U-Mobile, enables customers carry out about 90 per cent of all their regular banking transactions on their phones.
“U-Mobile customers can do funds transfer from their UBA accounts to any bank in Nigeria. Customers can also pay different bills, including air time top-up, cable subscription and transfer funds to loved ones
for the festive season.”

He also described the U-Direct as UBA’s internet banking platform that enables customers do most of their transactions from a desk top computer, laptop or tablet from any location and at anytime.
“Foreign exchange transfer has been introduced on this platform making it easy to send money across the world without visiting the bank,” he added.
