Season two of Ecobank Super Rewards promo has commenced and 50 customers of the bank will get cash prizes every week, a statement from the lender has said.
It was disclosed that the campaign was brought back due to popular demand from customers, who said they were impressed with the excitement generated in season one.
According to Ecobank Nigeria, the campaign will run for four months between October 2021 and January 2022 and will produce 800 winners who will get N25,000 weekly.
In addition, four millionaires will emerge in each of the four delineated regions of Lagos, Federal Capital Territory (FCT)/North, Mid-west/South West and South-South/South East regions. The millionaire winners will be announced at the end of the campaign.
Participation is open to both new and existing individual customers of the bank, both current and savings accounts holders.
The Head of Consumer Products at Ecobank Nigeria, Ms Daberechi Effiong, explained that the conditions to qualify for the scheme are simple and easy to ensure both new and existing customers participate and get rewarded.
According to her, new customers are expected to open an account, savings or a current account with a minimum of N5,000 and maintain the deposit for a 30-day period; the same she noted applies to existing customers, who only need to fund their active account with a minimum of N5,000 or reactivate their dormant account with a minimum of N5,000 and maintain the deposit for a 30-day period.
“In addition, eligible customers are expected to carry out at least one transaction via any of the bank’s digital channels like the Ecomobile App, or the *326# USSD service.”
Other conditions she noted are listed on the Ecobank’s website, stressing that customers can withdraw funds from their account during the campaign period but will only be qualified for the reward when they maintain at least a balance of N5,000 in their account.
“The winners will be announced every week on our social media platforms: Facebook – @EcobankNGR, Instagram – @ecobank_nigeria. We will also send congratulatory SMS/Emails to the winners, including how the rewards will be paid.
“You can send an email to our support team [email protected] or reach out to our 24/7 contact centre on 0700 500 0000, 01 270 1323, 0708 065 3700, Email: [email protected], Facebook: @EcobankNGR, Twitter & Instagram: @ecobank_nigeria,” she said.
On her part, the Head of Consumer Banking at Ecobank Nigeria, Mrs Korede Demola-Adeniyi, stated that, “This is the perfect time to open an Ecobank account or reactivate and fund a dormant account to qualify for the reward and enjoy a first-rate banking experience.”
She further said, “50 customers with the highest deposit will be rewarded with N25,000 every week. And four customers with the highest deposit and transaction value within the campaign duration will be rewarded with N1 million each.”
“As a bank, we are impressed with the level of excitement generated and customers’ participation in the first campaign. We want to ensure more of our loyal customers are rewarded. We believe this is cheery news for both existing and prospective customers. Let me use this opportunity to reassure everyone that Ecobank remains committed to maintaining its industry leadership in rewarding its customers.
