Customers of Stanbic IBTC Bank have been applauded for embracing a savings culture despite tough economic climes.
This commendation was made recently at the live draw for the Reward4Saving Promo Season two held in Lagos, where 70 more customers who met the minimum saving criteria across seven regions were rewarded with cash prizes.
The promo, launched in 2022, aims to encourage a savings culture among customers and reward the same habit. The campaign is open to all Stanbic IBTC Bank customers who have saved a minimum of N10,000 in their Stanbic IBTC Bank savings account for 30 days. The cash reward prizes range from N100,000 to N2 million.
As part of the bank’s effort to ensure a transparent and fair process, regulatory officials and the media attended the selection of winners through a live draw.
While speaking at the event, the Head of Consumer Clients at the lender, Ms Sadiya Ojo, reiterated the bank’s commitment to continue to reward its customers for their dedication and loyalty.
She also assured that the company would continue to provide innovative financial solutions that meet its customers’ needs.
“Stanbic IBTC has rewarded over 700 customers with N100,000 since the commencement of the Reward4Saving Promo Season two. We still have one monthly draw, one quarterly draw, and the grand finale before the promo ends.
“We actively encourage customers to build healthy financial habits and get more money as a reward for succeeding,” Ms Ojo said.
On his part, the Head of Data Enablement and Insights at Stanbic IBTC Bank, Mr Kolawole Adebayo, appreciated the regulatory authorities’ support and guidance in ensuring a fair process, noting that deploying technology enables the selection to be made through best practices.
“We carry out these draws using computerised technology. We see all the processes, from client transactions to data collection, applying all the business cases presented to the point where the algorithm pushes data into the draw machines.
“All of these are without human manipulation too. This process speaks to the transparency in our process to give every qualified customer an equal chance to be winners,” he said.
To participate in the promo, customers can download the Stanbic IBTC mobile app, dial *909*37#, visit the web portal or any Stanbic IBTC Bank branch or an @ease agent to open an account or @ease wallet and save at least N10,000 for 30 days.
The Reward4Saving Promo is one of the many initiatives introduced by Stanbic IBTC to reward its customers and encourage a savings culture in Nigeria.
