National Bank of Malawi (NBM) plc has rewarded more than 50 customers with branded merchandise during the final activation of its ‘Waku Wa WAFCON’ Point-of-Sale (POS) campaign, held at Chipiku Plus in Zomba.
Customers walked away with branded items after spending K50,000 or more using NBM plc POS machines.
Each qualifying transaction gave customers a chance to get instant branded merchandise, including mugs, T-shirts, drinking bottles, caps and key holders, while also automatically entering them into monthly draws for cash prizes of up to K500,000 and a grand prize of an all-expenses-paid trip for two to Morocco to watch the Scorchers compete at the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).Digital Banking Breakthrough: National Bank of Malawi Unveils Phone-Based Account Opening System
