“We want to encourage our customers, but also potential customers to transact on our digital platforms. Customers can use our mobile banking platforms to buy airtime, pay water and electricity bills, and perform other banking services from the comfort of their homes,” said Chirwa.

He said the promotion reflects the Bank’s push toward a cash-lite, digitally enabled banking experience.

“Gone are the days when you had to travel just to pay utility bills. Now customers can do everything from home using our digital channels,” he added.Peter Mponda returns to FCB Nyasa Big Bullets as Head Coach
