As a way of rewarding its loyal customers, Africa’s leading online travel agency, Jumia Travel, has announced the launch of its loyalty programme called the Jumia Travel Smart.
Chief Executive Officer of Jumia Travel, Mr Paul Midy, explained that, “This stride is part of our efforts to democratize travel in Africa–making travel within Africa easier and cheaper.
“And for our Travel Smart customers who are our frequent and returning customers used to the Jumia e-commerce ecosystem, there’s no better way for us to help them book the best hotels at the best price.
“We are constantly on our toes as a business to offer more value in terms of pricing, more hotel & flight options in order to appreciate them.”
According to Mr Midy, the reward scheme would enable customers save as much as 10 to 20 percent exclusive discount on hotel plus flight bookings and holiday packages. The programme comes with incentives such as late check-out, free airport pickup, welcoming drink and early check-in.
