“Medium-sized firms and small businesses form the backbone of Kenya’s economy accounting for a third of economic output and employing a majority of Kenyans. In recognition, we are celebrating and rewarding all business owners accepting payments on Lipa Na M-PESA and Pochi La Biashara through our Biashara ni Lipa Na M-PESA Promotion,” said Peter Ndegwa, CEO – Safaricom.
As part of the promotion, all businesses on Pochi La Biashara and Lipa Na M-PESA Business Till will earn 1 point for every transaction of KSh. 50 and above that they receive or pay out for the next 8 weeks.
The points will qualify business owners for weekly draws where they could win one of 128 tuktuks, monthly draws where they could win one of 16 Isuzu DMAX pickups or the grand draw where they stand to win one of 8 Fuso Canters.
The promotion will run across 8 regions including Nairobi, Coast, North Eastern, Eastern, Rift, Western, Nyanza and Mt. Kenya. Each of the regions will award 2 tuktuks every week, 1 pickup every 4 weeks and 1 truck at the grand finale.
In addition, all business owners on Pochi La Biashara can redeem their points in exchange for cash at KSh. 1 per point. All business owners will also be rewarded with up to 6 minutes of talk time per day for the first three qualifying transactions.
